#low-cal

[chefcarolb]

Russian Cabbage Soup [Shchi] is humble, earthy, sweet and sour and so satisfying on a winter night.  It’s super low-cal, vegetarian, Paleo, South Beach!  Oh, my!

recipe entry

Made a really nice low-cal salad for dinner tonight :) It was the only thing I'd eaten all day. It filled me up completely. What I put in the salad: * baby spinach (handful / 10 cals) * five baby tomatoes cut in half (17 cals) * quarter of a carrot cut into strands (10 cals) * six home grown olives (30 cals) * a palm sized thin block of feta cut into tiny pieces (40 cals) 117 cals all together :))

Breaded Tofu Parmigiana

Since learning that my baby likes tofu, I have been trying to find ways to cook it so that I like it. This wasn’t a bad attempt. I followed this recipe, except instead of pan-frying the breaded tofu, I baked it for 15 minutes on each side at 375º. And you can use low-fat to no-fat mozzarella to make it low-cal.

“fettuccini”* with spinach and green peas (cooked up in a pan with butter and olive oil), lemon juice, nutmeg, pink himalayan salt, and black pepper, and topped with chopped walnuts and grated parmesan 

*decided to splurge and order an assorted case of nuPasta (comes with “fettuccini”, “spaghetti”, and “angel hair”), which is a starch-free, high fibre noodle alternative derived from the konjac plant. i’ve only tried this one package so far, but i was super impressed. the density wasn’t quite that of regular wheat-based pasta, but was still totally slurp-able and the texture was on par. and, at the risk of patting myself too hard on the back (haha), i had no complaints about that dish right there.

(just fyi, this post was zero percent sponsored by nuPasta. i just wanted to share my food experience with y’all. as i do. check out their website for more information, if you’re curious, or to order your own packages, if you’re so inclined.)
