What Would You Eat?

I have to take a client out to dinner tomorrow. So, I have to eat what's available. Will watch portion sizes, but from this menu, what would you eat if you were in my shoes? I eat about 1300 calories daily, and because this thing might run late, it's possible I won't have time to do any sort of a workout.

I tend to eat vegetarian, but will also have fish, shrimp and chicken.

    Hmm...I am not very fond of italian food while watching my calories but here are my choices

    - Penne Juliana
    Portobello mushrooms, green peas, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, garlic and olive oil
    (definiltey ask them to reduce the olive oil or probably eat a smaller portion)

    -Pollo Con Asparagi
    Breast of chicken topped with slices of fresh tomato and asparagus
    and fontina cheese
    (easy on cheese!)

    Good luck.

    I would do a salad and the Penne Juliana! Go light on the pasta...maybe see if they have whole wheat pasta and gobble up all those veggies!!

    I was thinking about filling up before going (protein shake?) so I wouldn't be tempted. I was thinking that Penne Juliana might be the way to go as well. Oh, but I love a good calamari.
