Yesterday's breakfast was:
1/2 c low fat cottage cheese
Mixed with
1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1 packet of Truvia
Then I stirred in
1 diced apple
And sprinkled 5 almonds on top.
The whole bowl came up to around 196 calories and it was very filling and tasty.
I am eating this right now and it is really good! I just didn't add any almonds.
I'm out of plain almonds at the moment so I've been skipping the almonds as well and I still think it's fantastic:)0 -

Two of my favorite breakfasts (or really... whenever meals)
1.) Cut up whatever vegetables you please and cook them in a frying pan with light margarine/olive oil/cooking spray.
2.) Fry until soft, or to however "charred" you desire. Turn down heat to low. (Make sure pan isn't too hot before next step)
3.) Add egg whites. (Can make either scrambled eggs or an omelet)
Seriously. So easy, but always good. And satisfying.
Here's the other:
(Healthy chocolate pudding)
1.) Microwave about 1/2 - 3/4 cups of blueberries until they are bubbling.
2.) Add about 1 tbsp of cocoa powder and stir until the consistency is even.
3.) Add about 3/4 cup of unsweetened fat free plain yogurt and stir until mixed thoroughly.
4.) Add about 1 tsp of splenda if desired.
^^ SO good! I can't believe how similar the taste is to pudding
(Or maybe I'm just nutso, but I seem to love it)0 -
these all sound great! Can't wait to try the stuffed cucumber0

I am loving the Veggie Patch Mediterranean Chickpea and Spinach patties (found them at Costco). They are 120 cals, 6g fat, 5g, protein, 5g fiber, and they taste good. Sometimes when I'm running out of time to make anything I just pop one in the microwave. Or you can lightly saute them.
For lunch sometimes I eat this with a cup of Pacific Naturals creamy tomato soup (100 cals in a cup) and those things together are a really filling "meal" for 220 cals - plus they're easy to take along with you in reusable containers.
i second the Kind bars also - second vote for dark cherry choc. cashew and almond coconut also. Also, if you've never tried Lara bars, they're pretty good (& natural)
Also - a can of tuna, 1.5 tbsp light mayo and a couple cups of popcorn is another of my go-tos.
Thanks for this thread! Eating the same low-cal shtuff can get boring quickly0 -

I love the Hidden Valley Dry Dip Mixes. They are about 5 cal per serving before mixing it with sour cream. I then get the fat free sour cream which is about 35 cals per serving. Makes a great addition to carrots or celery or anything else you can pair with it.0

Sometimes I want a sweet snack, so I mix 1 TB mini chocolate chips (70 cals), 1/3 cup mini marshmallows (50 cals), and 12-13 plain almonds (80 cals) together, to make a 200 calorie treat.0

PB2! love the stuff!! I love peanut butter but always feel guilty when I eat it.
My new guilty pleasure is a square of dark chocolate with 2Tbs PB2 100 calories.
I also love the laughing cow cheese. Spread some on 45 calorie toast with a few boiled egg whites.0 -
