Don't be afraid to experiment with your cooking.  Add spices that you like that will enhance the flavor of your dishes.

When focusing on lower calorie meals, the best cooking methods are usually broiling, steaming and stir-frying. 

Some of the lowest calorie vegetables with a lot of vitamins are carrots, cabbage, peppers, cucumbers, lettuce and spinach.

One way to add extra fiber to your diet is with soup. Try bean soups.  Sweet potatoes and yams can be used for a change of pace and taste instead of white potatoes.
