Whether as a small lunch or as a light evening snack: the low-fat, high-protein chicken goulash is always good. Lime juice provides a fresh taste and a few extra vitamins; ginger and sambal oelek bring spiciness and soothing essential oils.

With not even 100 calories per serving, a bowl of rice is perfectly okay! Take natural rice (about 50 grams), which brings additional satiating fiber and B vitamins to your plate.
