Dinner Ideas under 300 calories!

Options
I thought that these were really great meal ideas. I know eating anything over 300 calories for one meal makes me feel guilty so these are really great alternatives. I hope you enjoy!

    Although there are a lot of egg beaters & splenda use.... both of which I avoid (whole foods snob here :tongue: ) but they are really good "starting point" ideas anyway!

    Thanks for mentioning that. I love the HG cookbook but I really can't bring myself to consume splenda or egg beaters. Oh and don't even get me started on non dairy creamer.

    My favorite low-cal "dinner" is an egg-white omelette (I like to use real eggs - not egg beaters.)

    Two egg whites, one stick of string cheese (peeled into strings), a couple slices of tomatoes, and dab of olive oil - comes out to about 110 calories. I like to add a small salad and half a whole-wheat pita. Easily under 300 cals.

    My favourite under 300 cal dinner is grilled veggies on toast with home made herb hummus (basil hummus is my current FAV!)
