[quote=Anonymous]Here are my mainstays, but I mainly eat them all the time cause I don't believe in diets:

PICKLES
Popcorn

Crystal Light (I buy the cherry limeade flavor and add lots of ice- tastes just like a slushie to me)

Zoodles (zuchini noodels) with tomato sauce- or for an indulgent but low carb treat "carbonara"- pieces of bacon and a raw egg mixed in)

Protein powder "milkshakes."  My favorite is mint chocolate chip- I use GNC Go Lean chocolate protein powder, and add a couple drops of pure mint extract with some milk and water.  Delish.

Coffee with a little bit of milk and splenda.  Sometimes I even get the coffee mate stuff and use that- it's not healthy but it is low cal

Go to recipes:

"Eggplant lasagna."  Use plenty of tomato sauce, sliced up eggplants, and a very sparing amount of ricotta cheese.  Fantastic.

Greek salad.  Plenty of lettuce, with a small amount of feta cheese, sliced up kalamata olives, onion, and some olive oil and balsamic vinegar.  Can be very filling, low cal, and indulgent tasting.

"Taco salad".  Brown turkey meat (can use taco seasoning or not if you are really trying to be low cal.)  I add adobo spices to the meat (which is zero cal), brown it and then serve over lettuce.

Garnish with plenty of salsa and plain greek yogurt (as a sour cream subsitute).  Can add avocado if you want.  Lots of cilantro, possibly some chopped up black olives if I'm feeling indulgent. [/quote]
