Lunch and dinner meals low calories

Everyone has different version of what low calorie means to them.

To me that would be a total dinner ~400 and a lunch around 250-310.

Today I am eating sloppy joe meat on top of broccoli for lunch which is only ~310 calories with 45g of protein and 5 grams of fiber!

For dinner this week I am doing Roasted Cauliflower with Lentils and Harrissa topped with goat cheese
~418 calories 23g protein, 20 grams of fiber.

For low calories, I usually try to trim down on the bread/pasta/rice and amp up the meat and veggies because I get more fiber and protein, which keeps me full. However, none of the veggies are in salad form. So do you hate all vegetables or just salad form because that is a giant difference.

If I'm saving up for a big dinner my lunch sometimes is an Ocean's tuna snack kit. The one with rice crackers is 146 calories. For a low cal dinner I will usually do Shirataki noodles with a bolongnese sauce which comes in around 350 calories or so with parmesean cheese. Another low calorie dinner is Shrimp. They are super low as long as you don't dip them in butter. I use a little cocktail sauce and enjoy. Either way it is a good bang for your calorie budget.

Look up green giant's fried cauliflower rice. That with a cup of peas and some boiled shrimp added feels like a cheat meal but comes in under 400 calories.

I am assuming by the I am not a vegetable eater you don't eat any veggies so I am going to stay away from them all together and like another poster mentioned low calories differs for everyone so with out a range that you are looking for I am throwing caution to the wind as I am not a big bread eater and what they call a veggie *kitten*, I love them raw, sauteed, roasted, steamed, you name it! so my low cal meals always contain them... with that being said the non veggie items are:

Breakfast: usually a Greek yogurt bowl, add some granola and fresh fruit, or a chia seed bowl with PB2 and jelly, kind bar with fresh fruit... (weekends I do the traditional big breakfast, eggs bacon sausage waffles etc.)

Lunches-I bought these bento style boxes that have three separate compartments so I fill them with things like hard boiled eggs, almonds, fruit, hummus, cheese, tuna fish, quinoa, shrimp, sweet potato (not sure if you consider that a veggie) almond butter with apple slices and cinnamon.

Dinners- fast and easy my go to is omelets aside from veggie filled I also do bacon/sausage/ham goat cheese with a slice of multi grain toast and ghee. I also prep on the weekends so I make a soup or a turkey chili in the crock pot and then separate them into single portion sizes. I do eggmuffins for a quick grab as well. Like I said I do a ton of veggies so most nightly meals are a protein with a couple cooked veggies and big green salad. but you can certainly substitute them for pretty anything else you like, just in moderation.

I stay within 1250-1420 calories each day. I tend to be lower carb, high protein and that works for me. every one is different, key is to find the things you like that keep you feeling satisfied. Good luck!

Just make a smash plate....Think a vegetable or two...a protein source...and maybe a fat. My lunch was frozen chicken strips, A potato and 1.5 servings of brussel sprout with some frozen spinach. 10 minutes prep time super simple for 300 calories. Sometimes i just toss in whatever veggies some tuna or chicken and an egg in a bowl with ketchup. I make a smash plate/bowl of sorts twice a day. Super simple. I know you dont like veggies but just toss in ketchup or a bbq sauce and its good. Hot sauce helps. So does garlic powder/cayenne pepper. You really do get used to veggies, Especially when the greener ones are mixed in with homefries XD

I have the same situation. I don’t eat veggies. I make a good white bean chicken chili that is low calorie. Frittatas. Tacos with no cheese on a thin corn tortilla. For bread I get the 40 calorie per slice honey wheat. I make chicken salad sandwiches with the rotisserie chicken salad from HEB. My whole sandwich ends up being under 200 calories. For sweets, I get low calorie ice cream or ice cream bars. Those are usually under 100 calories. I maintained an 800 calorie per day diet for 4 months. No veggies.
