Recipes around 350 calories per serving?

I just had 2 cups of homemade chili with beans @ 275 calories. I keep it around the house during cold weather.

1 lb hamburger browned
1 small onion chopped and browned with hamburger
mix 1 packet chili seasoning
add 1 can diced tomatoes
add 1 can tomato sauce
add 1 can chili beans

let simmer for about 15 minutes

add 1/2 cup shredded cheese for added protein if desired

ooohh hold that cheese it crazy how quick the cal's run up with cheese....and the crackers if you add them to chili. Cooking a huge batch of chili and eating it for 3-4 days straight just won't be the same for me this winter

I am new to the MFP group and have a question but don't know where to ask it. Hopefully someone here can answer for me. I made dinner and it was a premade (by me) mexican chicken casserole and I don't know how to log it in on my "dinner". I don't remember every ingredient that was put in it as I made it several months ago (and froze it lol). I have over 2,000 that need to be eaten today so I'm pretty sure I'm ok I just wondered for the future.

Next time you make a dish you can enter in the "Recipes" tab and it will calculate your calories per serving.

For a quick meal around 350- I like shrimp and spinach enchiladas.
You get 2 for about 350 cals

Season shrimp with lime, cayenne, cumin, garlic powder and a pinch of oregano
Heat a nonstick skillet with nonstick spray saute diced onions and a jalapeno
when the onion starts to turn clear add the shrimp (lime juice and all)
Just as the shrimp start to curl add frozen spinach and continue to saute until the shrimp are all pink and the spinach is warm
Remove from the pan and set aside
In the skillet heat corn tortillas until bendy.
In each tortilla you put some spinach about 5 shrimp and a light sprinkle of grated part skim mozzarella
Line them up in a baking dish crease down
Drizzle with green chile enchilada sauce (DO NOT SOAK)
Sprinkle with another bit of cheese (take it easy on the cheese as it's heavy on the cals part skim mozz is about 80 cals for 1/3 cup)
Broil this whole mess until the cheese is melty and bubbly

Serve with salsa verde and enjoy! It's almost like cheating!
:drinker:

I make a vegetable soup, which usually has about 200ish calories for a bowl-full (very filling). You can add some shrimp, beans, soybeans or cut up chicken sausage, which would add 100-200 (depending on how much and what) for protein.

I just start with a big pot and throw in chopped up onions, celery and carrots. Then I throw in any vegetable (even from the freezer) that I have (peppers, spinach, mushrooms, kale) and get them all soft and smelling yummy. Then some chicken or vegetable broth and tomato paste (if you like tomato based soups). Salt, pepper, any herb or spice to taste. Soup comes out hearty if you don't put too much broth, so it's really filling.

I like soup because you can be very creative with different flavors and veggies. I make a big pot of it that will last me about 4 dinners and I change it up by what add-ins I choose.

Good luck!
