Answers:
You can lighten up any vegan meal by using less oil!. I have found that using Pam Organic Olive Oil cooking really helps!. I have also found that eating less bread and pasta has helps to keep my calorie count down!. When I do eat pasta and bread I make sure I choose high fiber versions (usually whole wheat/whole grain)
If you do have a hankering for a sandwich and you like peanut butter, try PB2! It's a powdered peanut butter that you add water to!. You can make it as creamy or as dry as you like!. It tastes pretty good and has way less calories/fat than regular peanut butter!. I have it with apple butter which has less calories and sugar than jam or jelly!.

This is abt 500 calories, but its a whole meal sooo
Tofu, firm
olive oil
peppers, onions, brocoili, corn, ect!.
one cup precooked rice
ok, so i just fry the tofu in a pan till lightly brown with a teaspoon of olive oil, then add the veggies after browned, till they are cooked, then i add a little sause (you choose! i like a asian inspired one) and the rice, add a LITTLE water and mix, let sit for abt 5 minutes ,the brocoi gets kinda steamed that way!. then enjoy!!!
This is the first vegetarian meal i made with tofu, i think its awsome, you could also marinate the tofu in whatever sause you used!. or soy sauseWww@FoodAQ@Com

If you are on a vegetarian diet, the last thing you need to be concerned about is low calorie meals!. Eating vegetables is essentially a low calorie way of eating!. If it's a simple meal your after that's fine, but I wouldn't worry about your calorie intake!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Apple, orange, banana, kale!.
