    I'm finding it hard to put my finger on one. I think probably Cathedral City lighter, it's a lower fat cheese. I didn't realise how much cheese we eat in this house so that has been a life saver. In my house if i sprinlkle cheese on it my OH will most likely eat it and hates pretty much everything i cook nowadays.

    boo to unsupportive OH

    Wheat Bread with at least 3g if not more fiber per serving, peanut butter, bananas, and Nutella. One tablespoon is 100 calories with 6 g of fat when combined with 1 tbsp peanut butter and 1 slice of wheat bread is an amazing treat. Or in my case, two slices of bread and a piece of fruit and it is an amazing meal.

    Multi grain pitas and roasted garlic hummus :D Delicious and super filling, and perfect at about 160 calories (for the ones I get, at least).

    Herbs and spices.

    If you know how to season your food well you don't have to drown it in calorie laden sauces to make it taste amazing. My homemade cumin spiced lamb burgers are much sought after...


    Would you be willing to post any spice blends/proportions? It's tough to find something balanced. But the importance of good spice is paramount.

    As far as my own staple, that would be a cereal combination I have every morning.

    I mix one large box of Grape Nuts with one standard box of Kashi Go Lean Almond Flax. (My siblings dubbed it Colon Blow. Sigh...it's great stuff)

    A cup serving is 200 calories and full of fiber.

    I pour 3/4 of a cup of Blue Diamond Almond Milk (Sweetened Vanilla) over the top. Eaten slowly, the expansive behaivor of the cereal keeps my stomach so nice and full for quite a while.

    So fiber, protein and a touch of sweetness. Yay!

    Total: 200 calories for the cereal, 67 calories for the Almond Milk. An amazingly filing breakfast for 267 calories. Good hot or cold.
