The Herbalife spammers gave me an idea: tomorrow I will cook only
vegetables.
No pasta, no pizza (my pizza is pretty high in calories), little
bread, no cheese.
All vegetables and fruit, with the only exception of the milk and
yogurth for the kids' breakfast.
I'm thinking of the dishes I can cook: probably beans soup, potatoes
pie and filled tomatoes.

good idea! - why not try my 10 cent, 400 calorie meal - 1/2 cup
oatmeal (1 1/2 cups cooked) plus 3 tablespoons peanut butter (plus
cinnamon and artifical sweetener). oatmeal = healthy whole grain,
natural peanut butter = good nutrition. Please be careful and don't
ramp up your fiber intake too quickly.

Go for the beans - the bean soup, or lima beans or other sorts of
lentils - as an effort to get your protein in.

Otherwise, salads, fresh/raw veggies, fresh/steamed veggies,

I recently had a salad in a restaurant, it was a grilled veggie salad.
They took a basic salad (lettuce/greens, tomato, cucumber) but topped
it with some grilled veggies in a nice seasoning. (Peppers, squash,
zuccini, onions) and then put some beets on the side.

For me, the flavor in the seasoning of the grilled veggies was enough
of a flavor that the salad didn't need dressing.
