Whole wheat penne with ground beef, homemade spaghetti sauce with some grated/shredded carrots, onions, and spinach in it. Oh of course, 1 or 2 slices of the obligatory garlic bread to go with it.

Ground beef, 1/2 an avocado and blue cheese in a bowl. It's only 320 cals so I'll need crackers or something.

I had an early dinner, it was a chicken brochette from a Greek restaurant I love here, and salad. No dressing or feta cheese on my salad and I fought the temptation that came with the garlic bread

A really dodgy soya bean-tomato sauce over wholewheat pasta - the beans were still hard & crunchy, in spite of lots of soaking & boiling. Any tips for cooking dried beans so they are non-crunchy?

I'm making tacos. I still haven't decided whether I'm going to have one or just opt out and make something I will KNOW the calorie content of. I'm sure I can add each corn tortilla, probably even eye the content of the hamburger/refried beans/etc...but with the oil I cook the shells with, it just seems like too much work. haha. My bf has it made!

Shredded buffalo chicken "taco salads" tonight. I'll be baking a flatout light to get it crispy and using that as the shell...we'll see how it goes!

Last night we had Subway for dinner.. Turkey & cheese with lettuce, tomato and banana peppers. Just didn't feel like cooking and that was the healthiest alternative I could think of.

Tonight, I'm not sure what we're having yet but I'm currently searching recipes on here and on skinnytaste.com to figure out what to buy for the week.

1/2 block of extra firm tofu, a bunch of bok choy and some onions with a little hoisin sauce, and then 2 oz of angel hair pasta mixed in at the end. I wish I knew how to get the flavors better. But it was filling, full of protein and under 500 calories so yay!

I love all the ideas here! Tonight I made chicken enchiladas in whole wheat tortillas with brown rice and roasted broccoli and some guacamole.

Pork chops with homemade spicy breadcrumbs shake 'n' bake style, baked red potatoes with a little bit of butter and sour cream, and large ears of bi-color corn with some of my butter/cajun seasoning/garlic & herb mixture. Yum!

Tonight we had more of the leftover shredded chicken with salsa in whole wheat tortillas and a big veggie salad.

Tostada with meat, beans, rice, avocado, bell pepper, onion, lettuce, sour cream and hot sauce. On paper it sounds sort of average, but really it was delicious! I limited the meat, beans and rice to abt 2Tbs each, and I weighed the avocado. Used light sour cream and a ton of lettuce - maybe 3 cups. Total caloies abt 450. Because I still had some calories to spend, I had a 1/2 cup serving of light cookie dough ice cream for 130 cal. Very satisfying meal.

tacos! 3 oz ground beef sauteed with mushrooms and zucchini and taco sauce. Then put in 2 corn tortillas with avocado and sour cream on top.

Clocked in at about 400 calories. (Had some cheese and crackers before hand to bring it up to 500.)

Yum!

Stir-fried cabbage 'noodles' and onion with chunks of italian sausage. yum.

Superlazy today so I am just making a prepackaged broccoli 'n' macaroni cheese with a can of tuna and some extra chopped broccoli and cauliflower mixed in.
