Fooderiffic

Finding a good amount of food with each undertaking being around 200 calories has been interesting.

Yoplait Light fat free yogurt is 100 calories zero from fat. Add two carmel flavored Rice cakes (50 calories each) and thats good enough to tide me over till lunch.

So lunchtime comes and a sandwich made with Franz 40 Calorie a slice whole wheat bread, two slices of Yves Meatless Salami (20 calories a slice) with some good hot mustard and veggies.

Lettuce, onion, dill pickles are minimal calories so your looking at 130 calories. Add to that a bowl of cabbage soup (30 calories) and a Big dill pickle.

Soup is made from:
- whole cabbage head
- 6 green onions (scallions)
- 28 ounces of crushed, canned, or whole fresh tomatoes
- 2 bell peppers (green)
- 1 bunch of celery
- 1 veggie bullion
- Black pepper to suit your taste
- Herbs to suit your taste
- Small can of V-8 juice

Last night I used a three bean recipe from my sister (black, pinto chili) with a 80 calorie tortilla. This needs some work at upping the flavors but at 190 calories, not bad.

I had to add nonfat cottage cheese for some creaminess that I'm used to in a bean burrito. I liked it better after that :)
