This will feed all five people in my family with leftovers. It's about 190 calories a cup and over 17 grams of protein.
Brown meat, mix garlic powder and onions. Transfer into 5-6 qt crock pot, add cheese (cubed) and milk cook on low for 5-6 hours. then put on toasted wheat bun or bread of your choice. (it's hearty, i only eat half) but most of the cals come from the bun, i usually just eat half of a bun.

So glad you make fried rice, cfmama - I make it all the time and it's one of my "wow, I can't believe this is a healthy meal" meals. I usually make it with ground turkey or tofu as the main protein (plus an egg or two) and toss in just about whatever vegetable I have in the house that needs to get used - onions, celery, peas, celery, peppers - I have even put in chopped broccoli.
Tonight, I think I'll make sauteed okra and onions, and serve it over a small portion of pasta, with some nabulsi (delicious middle-eastern cheese, only 80 calories an ounce) shredded on top.
Wow, those Crock Pot Cheeseburgers sound incredibly yummy!! I'll be having red beans and rice!
1/2 can kidney beans
1/2 cup instant rice
1/4 cup salsa fresca
Then I stir in cajun seasonings and water to fill the pot and simmer to the right consistency! Simple and yummy.
Red Breans & Rice with boneless skinless chicken breast mixed in. Salad & low fat pea salad...lol sounds really weird now. But thats what hubby and the kids want
