    Hmm... roasted carrot fries? Their yummy and about 105-ish calories for a cup's worth. I make a whole batch and put them in the fridge. They last a week if my grandmother doesn't sneak into them!

    Grilled or roasted mushrooms with a litle bit of hamburger or steak seasoning. I spray them with olive oil cooking spray.

    1 microwave baked potato, as small as you can find
    1/4 cup (measure it!) shredded cheese
    1/5 avocado
    2 T salsa
    3 oz whatever meat or meat substitute you want

    Microwave potato for 7-8 minutes. (Poke holes in it with a fork if you didn't get one of those prepackaged potatoes!!!)
    cut potato in half and then fourths so that it lays flat.
    Brown meat.
    While potato is still hot, sprinkle shredded cheese across it. Then put meat on top. Then salsa, then chunks of avocado.

    The whole recipe is right around or a little under 400 calories and is very filling.

    Roasted spaghetti squash with sautéed mushrooms, thyme, and Parmesan -- sooo good for something so simple.
