I'm on a calorie-restrictive diet and need some advice for a healthy, tasteful meal option in the range of 250 calories. I'd like to implement some lean protein if possible, and definitely veggies, but nothing too exotic (I want to keep it to what I've already got in the fridge or pantry). Any suggestions?


Answer
celery, carrots and an apple with nothing to dip in, and soy milk.


Now, if you said 300 calories, I could get a little more creative.

* Lean Cuisine Herb Roasted Chicken, and 1 cup of 1 percent milk


* Fantastic Foods Spicy Jamaican Rice and Beans, and 1 steamed broccoli stalk

* Boca Burger (Vegan original) on a bun with 2 pieces looseleaf lettuce, 1 slice tomato, and 2 Teaspoons ketchup, and 1 c steamed spinach with 2 Teaspoons reduced-calorie margarine

* 3 oz salmon fillet and small oat bran dinner roll



* 6 large shrimp with 2 Tablespoons cocktail sauce, 2 cups of salad with 2 Tablespoons Italian dressing, and iced tea with 1 sugar cube

Here are examples of 300-calorie lunches…

* One 6½" whole wheat pita, 4 Tablespoons red pepper hummus, ½ c broccoli sprouts, ½ cup cucumber slices, 2 pieces looseleaf lettuce, and ½ cup cranapple juice

* 1 cup Nile Spice Sweet Corn Chowder, 1 cup fat-free milk, and 1 large apple

* 1 Tablespoon peanut butter and 1 Tablespoon grape jelly on whole wheat bread (2 slices

* 1 cup Boston Market chicken chili, and 1 cup Boston Market broccoli with red peppers

* 3 ounces of tuna and 37 almonds

* Subway Veggie Delight 6" sub, and 1 can diet soda

* Burger King: Four Chicken Tenders and a small order of onion rings.

* Wendy's: Grilled Chicken Sandwich

* Subway: Any Under 6" sandwich. Warning: with no mayo, oil or cheese

* Dairy Queen: Grilled chicken sandwich or DQ Homestyle cheeseburger

* KFC: Tender Roast Sandwich without sauce. Two Original Recipe fried drumsticks or two wings.

* Arby's: Light Grilled Chicken sandwich.

* Boston Market: Quarter-pound skinless white-meat chicken (170 calories) with butternut squash (150 calories).

What Food for can I make for my Dad?

My mom and sister and I are all leaving the house for a week and I hate to see my dad eating only peanut butter sandwiches, carrots, and apples for that whole time. What are some quick and easy recipes that will keep for at least four days and are meal-like.
He literally won't dirty one pan himself when we're gone because he hates washing dishes that much.



Answer
Get him some dinners that he can microwave and throw away the container. There are lots of meals that only take a few minutes in the microwave and they are good and can be healthy too. He could make French bread pizza or personal pizzas, frozen cooked chicken or burritos. You can make meatloaf or beef or pork roast, slice it and freeze (to be microwaved) or kept in the fridge a few days (I like it cold too) and he can warm it up in the microwave and eat it out of the plate or make a sandwich on bread or toast with mustard, Miracle Whip, catsup or BBQ sauce. I have made cooked hamburgers and froze them. You can buy tuna in a pouch (you don't need to drain, just eat) and he can add mayo and a sandwich (on toast) or put it on a plate and throw away when done. You can buy soup in microwave cups that you throw away too. He could eat salad from a bag and some salad dressing (eat on a foam plate). They have sides like mashed potatoes and macaroni & cheese and rice (in a pouch) that can be microwaved. They even have bacon you can microwave-it sits on the shelf. He can eat bananas, oranges, grapes, cheese, crackers, cherry tomatoes and baked potatoes. He can eat cereal without milk too. Peanut Butter & Jelly is good on toast. He could microwave a hot dog and fries. Hope this helps some.
