Hi there

newbie here, struggling to balance eating better and sticking to calorie goals, but even with smaller and healthier meals i seem to run out of grams of fat too quickly!

Any suggestions for low-fat recipes that will still fill me up and not completely depress me?!

Thanks :)

    A lot of recipes made with ground beef can be made with lean ground turkey instead (chili, tacos, burgers...) and are just as satisfying with less fat.

    my favorite: grilled chicken breast, use non fat cooking spray, like pam olive oil, top off with fat free cheese, i use 1/4 cup, add a tablespoon of your fav salsa, top with non fat sour cream! side dish steam veggies
