Giant bowl of calorie free noodles with 300 cal's of sauce on top
"Calorie-free noodles?" Forgive me, but are you being facetious? I love noodles but haven't eaten them for over a year.
They are called Shirataki noodles and they are pretty much like eating nothing. I tried them last week. I could not stomach them, but some people love them.0 -
Crock-pot Salsa Chicken!
1 pound of chicken breast
1 Jar of Salsa (enough to cover the chicken)
on low for 6-8 hours
I made it for this week. It makes around 4 servings around 150 calories per serving!
I'll be pairing it with roasted cauliflower and sweet potato.0 -

Thanks! I'll check them out at my local supermarket. I must admit, I am intrigued.0 -
I cooked sausages with mushrooms and oregano the other night and it was so tasty and easy to make, I diverted slightly from the recepie and threw in some green beans to add abit of colour to the dish and it worked a treat. 264 kcalories, protein 20g, carbohydrate 12g, fat 12 g, saturated fat 16g, fibre 4g, sugar 4g, salt 2.19 g If the link below doesn't work then the recipe is:
450g pack reduced-fat sausages
1 tsp sunflower oil
2 tsp dried oregano
2 garlic cloves , sliced
400g can chopped or cherry tomatoes
200ml beef stock
100g pitted black olives in brine
500g pack mushrooms , thickly sliced
Using kitchen scissors, snip the sausages into meatball-size pieces. Heat a large pan and fry the pieces in the oil for about 5 mins until golden all over.
Add the oregano and garlic, fry for 1 min more, then tip in the tomatoes, stock, olives and mushrooms.
Simmer for 15 mins until the sausages are cooked through and the sauce has reduced a little. Serve with mashed potato or pasta (I added neither to mine as it was filling enough)

A good idea as well is to pic low gi foods which release energy over a period of time meaning you dont feel hungry and therefore eat more.0
