    Default Six small meals??

    I think I would like to try eating 6 little meas through out the day. I know some people swear by it. Does any body have any suggestions for small vegetarian meals between 200 and 250 calories? Thanks.

    ovo lacto. I am really not diciplined enough to go completely vegan. Besides, eggs and cheese are so easy to make, and so good!

    I'm not a vegetarian anymore, but here's some small meals I used make when I was actually health concious...

    Breakfast
    -banana & hard boiled egg
    -Protein shake and a peice of fruit
    -2-4 peices of turkey bacon (do they make a soy variety?) and a piece of whole grain toast with heart healthy buttery spread

    late morning snack
    -half an avocado sprinkled with salt-less seasonings and fruit
    -half a pbj sandwich, baby carrots & dip
    -string cheese and an apple

    lunch (here's where it gets tricky 'cause I normally have some sort of meat... Maybe you can think of a substitution?)
    -3 oz of tuna (maybe chopped up hard boiled eggs instead?), 1/2 cup cottage cheese, salt-less seasoning tossed with mixed greens and crackers
    -half a turkey sandwich (when I was a vege, I used those soy deli slices... I liked the peperoni ones best) 100 calorie bag of mini popcorn
    -quick quesidilla made with a whole wheat tortilla and 1/4 cup reduced fat shredded cheese, fruit/veggies on the side
    -mixed greens tossed with almond slivers, a little sesame oil and rice vinegar, a cup of miso soup, and fruit
    -half a grilled cheese sandwich and a serving of tomato soup

    mid day snack
    I'd just combine two-three of these:
    -mini bag of popcorn
    -protein bar
    -fruit
    -veggies and dip
    -hard boiled egg
    -string cheese
    -1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese
    -1/4 cup salsa and one serving of baked tortilla chips
    -just add water packette soup

    I do somewhat eat that way, but I find it difficult to do 6 meals of all the same amount of calories.

    For me it's easier to do something like this

    300-350 cals (typically oatmeal with blueberries and soymilk)
    100-150 cals (coffee with soymilk and an apple)
    300-350 cals (brown rice, tofu and vegetables and a salad)
    100-150 cals (plain yogurt with blueberries)
    300-350 cals (bean burrito and low-fat ice cream bar)
    100-150 cals (kashi bar)

    I try to keep meals to be high in protein and high in fiber to satisfy longer.

    other thigns I eat are potato soup, eggwhite sandwiches, veggie/hummus wraps, sweet potatoes, fruit/protein smoothies.

    i don't cook much. I like having cooked brown rice on hand.
