I ate 2 bowls! Is that a healthy low calorie meal?

Answer by MYRA C
It’s healthy, low to no carbohydrate, low calorie, and tomato sauce is low in calorie and fat but jarred sauces have about 2% fat and about 4% carbohydrate. The saltines have about 3% fat no cholestorol to speak of but 10% in sodium. Doesn’t sound gross at all but next time you may want to add a little protein, a slice of chicken or perhaps a hard boiled egg or a few shrimp. .
Happy New Year

Don’t know if it is healthy(not much nutritional value as described) but it sounds horrible!

I would add some fresh cut-up veggies to the salad, such as carrots, cucumbers, onion, green beans, green or yellow peppers, and mix in some Romaine or other darker-leaved lettuce.
I’d add a little bit of white albacore tuna or a chopped hard-boiled egg.
I’d replace the tomato sauce with the cocktail sauce that you get for shrimp cocktail. it’s fat-free and very tasty.
I’d also replace your saltines with multi-grain or whole-grain crackers. Rosemary and Olive Oil Triscuit for example.
As for what you made, it’s low in calories but it’s also low in nutrition. That’s why I suggest adding vegetables, lean protein and whole grains.
