The "Pollo Margo" is really good and under 500 calories.  The Chicken Florentine salad is also really good--just make sure to get the dressing on the side.  The salmon would be another good option.  Mac Grill is one of my favorites, so I know how hard it can be to resist the tempting pasta dishes.  I would go with the Pollo Margo though if I were you.

I just made some homemade minestrone soup last night.  It was really easy and very low cal:

2 can of reduced sodium chicken stock (I get the fat free style)

1 14 oz can of diced tomatoes

1 14 oz can of kidney beans

2 cups of frozen veggies (I  use 1 cup corn, I cup italian style veggies)

1/2 cup of elbow pasta (penne style would be good too)

1/4 cup of fat free italian dressing

All you do it put it all in a pan and let it come to a simmer and cook until noodles are done.  Serves about 6.

Tea has no calories unless you add something to it besides water.  Most of the listing for Tazo is for the Chai Tea Latte or Green Tea Latte--both of which have milk and some sugar.  I usually stick to plan old tea, but Chai latte is my favorite treat!

I make a 150 Calories Smoothie that is awesome!  First you blend about 6 ice cubes in the blender, then you add about 3/4 cup-1 cup of frozen fruit (I ususally use raspberries or some other berry), add 1 container of light n fit fat free yogurt (I use raspberry or vanilla only 60 calories), put in about 1/4 cup of your favorite low sugar juice, and then blend.  Super thick and yummy.

yogurt with soy nuts

egg white omelets
