Have Low-Calorie Dinner

"Even If You Hate Cooking"

Here are some good and easy ideas for those of you who don't want to cook:

#1 - Smoothie made with soy or skim milk, frozen fruit and wheat germ or you can opt for a good meal replacement shake.
#2 - Smallest fast-food burger (with mustard and ketchup, no mayo) and a no-cal beverage. Then at home, have an apple or baby carrots.
#3 - Peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread with a glass of 1 percent milk (or soy milk) with an apple.
#4 - Precooked chicken strips and microwaved frozen broccoli topped with Parmesan cheese.
#5 - Healthy frozen entree' with a salad and a glass of 1 percent milk.
#6 - Scramble eggs in a nonstick skillet (I know I said "no cooking" but this is really quick). Pop some asparagus in the microwave, and add whole wheat toast. If your cholesterol levels are normal, you can have seven eggs a week.
#7 - A bag of frozen vegetables heated in the microwave, topped with 2 tablespoons of chopped nuts.
#8 - Pre-bagged salad (wash thoroughly) topped with canned tuna, grape tomatoes, shredded reduced-fat cheese and low-cal Italian dressing.
#9 - Keep lean sandwich fixings on hand: whole wheat bread, sliced turkey, reduced-fat cheese, tomatoes, mustard with horseradish.

More Fast, Healthy Meals: a can of good soup; cereal, fruit and fat-free milk; a veggie sandwich from Subway; pre-cut fruit salad and yogurt.
