- Lite Wings: Cut the saturated fat and sodium with these cornmeal-crusted boneless buffalo wings. Serve them with a light blue-cheese dip.
- Pizza-to-go: For maximum calorie control, make it yourself. If convenience is a priority, order a thin-crust veggie pizza from Domino's, Pizza Hut, or Papa John's. All three can deliver a pizza that weighs in at less than 250 calories a slice.
- Chips and dip: Serve baked chips with a Greek-yogurt-based fat-free dip. At about 15 calories a tablespoon, you can have more than a handful.
- Chocolate fix: Make your own 100-calorie fudge brownies using applesauce instead of oil to keep them moist. Short on time? Splurge on a box of Erin Baker's Organic Brownie Bites. They're only 90 calories each.
- Brewski: Okay, so light beers don't have the alcohol (carbs, to you) of full-strength brew. But if you're counting calories, these four (at 70 calories or less) can't be beat: Budweiser Select 55, Miller Genuine Draft 64, Beck's Premier Light, and Pabst Pearl Light.
