    I find tomato soup great when I don't have much calories left.
    Sometimes I add green onions to it, and I always add Cayenne pepper.

    I'd have 2 cups of lettuce and other salad veg topped with 2 oz. of sliced chicken or turkey, 2 tablespoons of hummus plopped into the middle then finally top with 1 to 2 tablespoons of lite Italian dressing. Yum!

    Bumble Bee Tuna solid white albacore in water (drained), put it in your salad with low cal dressing (whole can appx. 140 calories). High in sodium though, but good for protein :)

    Stir fry any vegetables you have and use a bunch of seasonings,ie, garlic, tumeric, itialian seasoning, basil. Very few calories and make a whole pan full. Any calories left over, just melt some mozzarella or feta on top then microwave til melted. Very yummy!

    This is one of my all time favorite dishes. Super filling, tastes great both hot and cold, and it's only 190 calories per serving. I'm going to try and copy and paste from my recipes page:

    Mahatma - Jasmine Rice, 1 cup prepared 213 48 0 0 0 0
    Athenos - Traditional Crumbled Feta Cheese, 3/4 cup (34g) 270 6 0 12 1,200 3
    Celery - Fresh, 2 stalk 10 4 0 0 60 2
    Raw Veggies - Red Bell Pepper, 0.5 pepper 19 3 0 0 3 1
    Oil - Olive, 2 tablespoon 239 0 0 4 1 0
    Compliments - Red Wine Vinegar, 4 tablespoon 0 0 0 0 0 0
    Sunset - Mini Cucumber, 100 g 10 2 0 0 0 1
    Add Ingredient
    Total: 761 63 0 16 1264 7
    Per Serving: 190 16 0 4 316 2


    Basically, chop up the veggies, put a bit of olive oil and red wine mixed in with them as well as any spices you like (I often times put za'atar or oregano), then put the feta on top and put the hot rice on top of the feta. I usually give it a few minutes to melt some of the feta before I mix the whole thing together.

    5oz of chicken breast and a bag of frozen cauliflower

    <<...THIS...>>> would be the most FILLING out of all the suggestions so far. . .
    so if you are HUNGRY Id say this would be the best option.

    I agree - and now I'm having it too!

    eating a 4 oz chicken breast for less than 150 calories, with some veggies thrown on the side and crystal light ... ALL for under 250 calories...

    I get nearly all of my meals from skinnytaste.com, they are delicious and filling and I never go over my calories when I stick to these recipes.

    My favorite is 4oz of chicken breast...plus a salad made up of a whole diced tomato and a whole diced cucumber (seasoned with stevia and salt substitute)...you will be stuffed...but will only be using 230 calories.

    This recipe is DELICIOUS! I've made it multiple times and you can eat the ENTIRE recipe for only about 125 calories! I can never eat the entire thing, I always have leftovers, and you only really need 3 ingredients: a medium eggplant, an egg white, and some Parmesan cheese :)
