    Stuffed peppers are delicious, not too expensive and low calorie!
    I make homemade ones and I always like to stuff them with rice, chicken, carrots & spicy tomato sauce (all of it chopped up very small). But you can stuff them with anything you like. The ones I make are around 160 calories per pepper, so quite low calorie.

    I love them too, I sub Chick Peas for the rice, it's great and better in fiber!

    I make a 2 ingredient crepe.

    2 eggs
    2 oz fat free cream cheese

    Put in the blender until smooth
    makes 6 med or 4 large crepe

    I normally fill mine with strawberries or blackberries and just a touch of sugar free whip cream. These are very indulgent for little calories.

    Would you mind sharing or posting the actual recipe? I don't trust recipes online really and I'm trying to keep my calorie intake to 1200 a day. I definitely need a variety of foods though... salad and plain eggs or bananas are going to get old real quick.

    I just made these 2 ingredient pancakes and they filled that craving for heavy breakfast foods. The 2 ingredients are 1 banana and 2 eggs. I added some cinnamon too. It made about 6 small-medium pancakes. The density is between a crepe and a pancake.

    Would you mind sharing the actual recipe?? These sound awesome!
