Artichokes

When you get bored with leafy greens (and that can happen easily when you’re counting calories), artichokes are the way to go. They make an ideal appetizer—one has just 60 calories, and frontloading all the fiber they contain will help you consume fewer calories during the rest of your meal. When you can get chokes fresh (in the spring), they’re delicious steamed; just sprinkle with salt, pepper, or a squeeze of lemon juice and eat the leaves one by one.

Just puree them in a blender or food processor with a little olive oil and fresh rosemary.
