1. Shirataki noodles, fresh or frozen vegetables, grated parmesan, chicken or tuna for protein. The shirataki noodles have only 30 calories in the 8 oz bag so you won't have many calories tied up there.

2. Shirataki Carbonara 403 calories makes one serving
1 8 oz pkg shirataki spaghetti (30 cal)
2 T Real Bacon bits (Aldi brand) (60 cal)
1/2 c grated parmesan cheese (160 cal)
2 large eggs (140 cal)
1/3 c unsweetened almond milk (13 cal)

3. Zucchini Chicken Lasagna with Tofu "ricotta" 334 cal per serving makes 4 servings
12 oz can chicken breast 98% fat free (360 cal in Aldi brand canned)
12 oz pkg firm tofu (400 cal)
16 oz raw zucchini (80 cal)
6 T grated parmesan cheese (120 cal)
2.5 c pasta sauce with mushroom (Aldi brand has 50 cal per cup)
.5 c unsweetened almond milk (20 cal)
.5 t garlic powder (5 cal)
.5 t dried basil (2 cal)

4. Turkey Chili 396 cal per serving makes 4 servings
28 oz can crushed tomatoes (260 cal)
29 oz can diced tomatoes (175 cal)
14.5 oz can black beans (385 cal)
1 lb ground turkey, 93% lean (640 cal)
.5 c yellow onion, diced (32 cal)
1 c green bell pepper, diced (30 cal)
3 T McCormick chili powder (0 cal)
.5 pkg Stonemill Essentials Original Chili seasoning mix (60 cal)

5. Make an omelet using 3 eggs, fresh veggies, 1/4 c low fat cheese and you'll have enough calories for a garden salad on the side with fat free dressing.

6. Top fresh salad greens with chopped veggies, cheese, top with salsa instead of high calorie dressing and you can still add protein like tuna or hard boiled egg.

7. Make a soup with 8 cups of low sodium chicken stock, 1 lb of boneless skinless chicken breast, shredded carrots, diced onion, diced celery, shredded cabbage, garlic powder, and any other spices you'd like. This will give you enough for a few meals and is filling.

I hope these were a help, or gave you a little inspiration to create your own meals.
