I realized that sometimes, the fun & games threads are super random and non-fitness related.

So... here's my task:

Try to make the best meal within the calorie range of 1500 calories.

P.S. I'm totally selfishly using your ideas for my own meals ;)

    How about 3 meals:

    2 lg egg, 4oz turkey, 3 mushrooms, 1tbsp salsa scramble.

    1 slice sourdough bread, 4oz chicken breast, 1/2 avocado, 1 tspn mustard, spinach and tomato sandwich

    4oz lean beef, 1 cup fresh green beans, 1/4 onion, 1tspn vegetable oil( to cook everything), 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce served over 1/2 cup brown rice.

    Total is under 1200.... Guess how I know this.

    One meal for 1,500 calories? Jesus - I'd just rather go to Chic Fil A instead of cooking for that allowance.

    I'm on a "cut" right now, so I have a ton of dishes that are low in calories while being nutrient dense, especially protien and veggie!
