Hungry Girl: Comfort Food

By: Lisa "Hungry Girl" Lillien

Comfort foods. They're the foods we crave, that make us feel, well, comfortable. Usually they're fat-packed, calorie-ridden nightmares. Usually ‑- but not always. I've sniffed out some of my favorite guilt-free comfort food finds to share with you.

 

Boca Chunky Tomato and Herb Lasagna

One serving contains 270 calories, 5 grams fat, 41 grams carbs, 5 grams fiber, 20 grams protein.

I've spent a large part of my life trying to escape the evil clutches of lasagna. Now, thanks to our friends at Boca, I no longer have to run screaming from this Italian favorite. My favorite soytastic product ever to emerge from Boca-land is their Chunky Tomato and Herb Lasagna. Imagine eating a 10.5-ounce serving of cheese, sauce, noodles and "meat" (okay, soy that tastes like meat), all for 270 calories and 5 grams of fat (plus 5 grams of fiber). You can! And I recommend you do ‑- because this is the most awesomely delicious frozen lasagna I've ever tasted.

 

Amy's Burrito Especial

One burrito has 260 calories, 6 grams fat, 45 grams carbs, 3 grams fiber, 8 grams protein.

If you love Mexican food, you'll flip over Amy's Burrito Especial. Amy's Kitchen produces dozens of organic, authentic-tasting Mexican entrees. One of my favorites is their Burrito Especial, which is packed with black beans, rice and cheese. Each large-and-in-charge burrito is like a delicious fiesta in a tortilla and contains just 260 calories. Go, Amy!
