Low Calorie Recipes???

I need some more tasty low calorie recipes! I need stuff that tastes good but isn't horrible for you. My boyfriend is tall & lean & has a job that requires lots of physical labor, so he isn't the least bit concerned about dieting. I, however, am! So I need recipe ideas that are still good tasting (so he will still eat them) but low calorie so that I can stick to eating right.

Here's on that I love:

1 cup of Healthy Choice Tomato Basil Soup (100 cal)
1 toasted cheese sandwhich (2 slices of whole wheat bread = 100 cal & 2 slices of 2% cheese = 90 cal)
Total calorie intake for meal: 290 calories

    If you're craving italian, try substituting rice for pasta. Its a lot less caloric, but I love rice cooked in half water, half tomato sauce! Throw a little skim mozzerella cheese in, and you've got a low-cal lasagna taste-alike!
