Spinach. One of those pre-packed bags has about 40-50 calories. Broccoli, about 2 cups, steamed, has about 50 calories.0

Non starchy veggies: cucumber, lettuce, spinach, celery, green beans, Italian green beans, broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower. When having pasta, I eat a serving (or smaller) and eat a cup of cauliflower (or other non starchy veg) with some of the sauce.............. It fills me up without the added calories. (Raw or cooked)
I would have to say though, moderation is the key.0 -
Love this question : )0

Carrots are a natural sugar not the same as a processed sugar. Enjoy your carrots.0 -
I like to have a can of unsalted green beans- only 70 calories!
1 bag of baby carrots is 140 calories
Butternut squash, cut up into fry form, broiled for 40 minutes- 1 cup is about 70 calories
Lettuce!!!!
A very large apple is 130 calories, take small bites and it last FOREVER...
Plain popcorn is 120 calories for a serving (5 cups I think)0 -

A whole cup of carrots has only 6 grams of sugar. Don't get brainwashed by the low-carb foolishness.0 -

If I need to bulk up my dinner I'll add on a basic salad, some lettuce, sliced peppers, cherry tomatoes and some sliced onion, have a low fat dressing or a bit of balsamic vinegar and lemon juice and munch away.
I also just got a big bag of stir fry veggies and bean sprouts and half the bag would be a large portion at 150g but only 60 or so calories.0 -

Totally agree, I eat mixed salad with loads of meals now, it piles up your plate and my brain thinks 'wooorrrrr, pile of food for me'
Same with stir fry, when i am in need of a lots of food, i put a whole packet in the wok, a couple of table spoons of chili sauce and bake some plain cod or just white fish, to put on the top - (Iceland - whitefish fillets only about 80 cals each) such a mountain of food for so few calories.0 -
Stir fry veges - you can have a cup of brown rice, a bit of chicken or pork and HEAPS of veges and it will give you a really filling dinner for under 400 cals0
