Hey guys. My stomach says it's time to eat again, but I'm not that great at making healthy food choices and I am trying to loose weight. I am a vegetarian, so if anyone has some suggestions, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! :smile:

    Spicy carrot and lentil soup is really tasty and filling but low in calories. I usually make a big pan then freeze some portions in takeaway boxes for lunch or dinner on days when I don't have many calories left. It's easy to make, cheap and there are lots of recipes for it online.

    My favorite snack is Gouda cheese and grapes. I like taking mixed greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes tossing it with my favorite hummus then adding some cheese and cracked pepper on top.

    You can make a little personal pizza

    1/2 cup flour (I use white wheat)
    4-5 tablespoons plain yogurt
    pinch of baking powder (or use self-raising flour)

    Mix it up, flatten to some semblance of a pizza crust, top with whatever,(I'm planning to make one later with tomato sauce, cheese, olives, and leftover sauteed broccoli) and bake at 450 fahrenheit for 15 minutes

    I like making lentil soup and eating it with smart dogs that I sauteed in sriracha, or chili made with lots of vegetables and a bit of coco powder ( i usually eat this with one serving of tostitos). It's also pretty easy to make a delicious vegetable and barley burger that I like to eat with pickles and carrots. I cut up an ounce of cheddar over the burger and top with sriracha. All of these are pretty low calorie and fat (even with the tostitos and cheese), and delicious with lots of vegetables. Hope this helps!

    I am making this Vegetarian Pot Pie for dinner tonight and with some slight adjustment, it is only coming in at a meager 250ish cals/serving!! Which means I am totally having two servings. :) It is DELICIOUS!!!
