Veggie stir fry - We usually have it as a main dish so there could be more servings when used as a side.
A low-cal, low-fat cornbread recipe...if you like it sweet, you can add sugar or splenda to taste (this recipe, as is, is not sweet cornbread). To make it easy to portion, you can make it in a muffin tin coated with cooking spray...and freeze extra portions.
this recipe I invented while on a 1000 calorie diet, it has a lot of flavor with very few calories! I enjoy it on pita bread with a side pickle!!
This is a simplified version of a French-style potato salad. You can play around with the dressing to make it a little tangier by adding more vinegar. Try out different spices! Others you might like: tarragon, dill, or even mint.

Garlic Naan made with olive oil and garlic spread instead of butter or ghee to make it heart healthier and save on calories.

Mix 1 tbsp with a large glass of soda water, mineral water or regular water for a refreshing, low-cal sweet drink. In general dilute between 1:5 and 1:8 according to taste.

To maintain a vegan status I do not include feta cheese, but for those who prefer, add about 1 tbs to your serving.
