BAM!!!

Sometimes cutting back on portions and making better choices is boring. To me, food needs a little bit of BAM! Something that leaves me satisfied yet wanting more.



Take these chipotle sweet fries from Alexia. 170 calories per serving. Decent, but not enough for a meal.



BAM! Turkey chili, sharp cheddar cheese and light sour cream to the rescue. These additions only add 300 calories, protein and more deliciousness. Perfect lunch.



Take this boring lump of pizza dough. (Ok it's not boring at all. I bought this premade at Trader Joe's since the whole wheat dough was out.)



Throw on some pesto, spinach, artichokes and buffalo chicken meatballs. ANNNNDDDDDD BA (wait for it....)M!!



Topped with a combo of sharp cheddar and pepper jack. I had a tough time portioning out 2 slices.

I seriously kept telling myself, "Leftovers tomorrow, leftovers tomorrow."

How do you add some bam to your food?
How do you keep your portion sizes down?
