    Stir fry, quick and easy and leaves less dishes to do.

    Tuna with avocado and tomato. Or fish (frozen filet) and frozen steamed veggies. Either one of these takes less than 10 min to prepare, and minimal dishes.

    Moroccan lentils or Greek yogurt depending on how hungry.

    Moroccan lentils take like 10 mins to cook and about as hard as 2 minute noodles.

    Got plenty of protein and relatively low in calories for the quantity of food.

    Are you making the Moroccan lentils "from scratch," or is this a pre-packaged mix type of thing? (And if so, if you don't mind, what is it? This sounds so good!)

    Eggs. Fat is my hardest macro to hit and eggs are filling and have fat.

    Chicken in the crock pot on work days is a must for me.

    Grilled chicken or a slice of meatloaf, 200 grams cooked rice, 2 serv of a steamed veg (broccoli or peas or green beans)

    I cook up 4 meals worth, portion out into Tupperware and I have a quick easy meal for lunch or dinner.

    Mmm I'm crazy about fajitas- grilled chicken, sauteed peppers and onions on a small sized tortilla with plain Greek yogurt and salsa. I'm probably going to eat it 4-5 times this week alone. Sometimes I'll do an egg instead of the chicken. So good.

    I love Papa Johns thin crust veggie pizza, since pizza was mentioned, but my go to meal is a banana sandwich with peanut butter.

    1/4 -1/2 cup of organic tomato sauce
    1/2 zucchini, thinly sliced
    2 1/2 tbsp shaved Parmesan OR shredded mozzarella
    garlic powder
    crushed red pepper
    olive oil spray
    1. Set oven to Broil on High
    2. Spread zucchini out on a baking pan covered in foil or parchment paper
    3. Spray with olive oil spray and sprinkle with garlic powder and crushed red pepper
    4. Broil for a few minutes until zucchini starts to brown
    5. Remove pan from oven and flip zucchini slices. Season again.
    6. Top each mini pizza with sauce, cheese and sprinkle with oregano.
    7. Place in broiler again until cheese is melty and golden

    Equals only 200 calories !

    That zucchini pizza does sound good!

    I eat black beans + tomatoes/salsa + add ons (low fat cheese, avocado, roasted corn, chicken/fake chicken, hot sauce/peppers/paprika, cumin, green onions, cilantro, quinoa, rice, etc) sometimes straight, sometimes as a wrap, depending on what's around or looks good at the store.

    When I'm really hungry on a Friday I get fresh fish and pan fry a giant hunk of salmon or trout with fresh thyme. The thyme gets crispy and delicious.

    The U.S. a country known for its food, I'm sure you can find a dozen similar products.
