    I'm a pretty simple cook, but if you want a good source of lean protein:

    Turkey Chili

    one lb ground tukey
    1 can of Red Beans
    1 Can of diced tomatos or Tomato Paste
    One chopped onion
    1 store bought Chili packet or season to own taste

    Usually, 1 full cup of this chili has about 350 calories, is low in fat and carbs, and filling.

    ive just created an amazing low cal dessert, is super simple to make too!

    all you need is:
    Large Wine Glasses / small Bowls
    1 -2 Sachet sugar free jelly
    4 sponge / trifle fingers
    fresh raspberries
    1 pot Shape / Danone white chocolate delight

    how to make:
    break up sponge fingers
    layer sponge / fruit
    pour over jelly
    leave to set.
    top with pudding and decorate with more fruit

    (you need approx 1 pint jelly, i like to make with half amount water as it sets better so i use 2 packs, if you use full amt water only 1 sachet needed). there are loads of variations you can do on this, i have made raspberry and white chocolate this time, but any flavour jelly / fruit is good, and you can use any s/f yogurt / pudding mix etc for topping :smile:

    nutrition as I have made it:
    2 servings. cals 179 / carbs 35 / fat 2 / protein 4 / sugar 15 / fibre 3
