Trying to enjoy a low calorie meal for a family dinner can very often be harder than you think. Low calorie dinners are usually 500 calories or below. As it often goes, dropping calories from a dish can sometimes be at the expense of taste, but some of our selected meals here show you can get good taste and health from these dishes. It can be hard to find healthy meals that the whole family can enjoy, but these low calorie meals that are under 500 could be perfect for everyone. We’re not talking about boring diet meals or salads either, some of these include pizzas and lasagne, just with lighter ingredients. If you weren’t already aware, the recommended daily calorie intake is 2,000 for a woman and 2,500 for men, so if you and you’re family are having a main meal that is under 500 calories per portion, then it leaves you lots of calories to consume throughout the day. As well as that, if you’re trying to lose weight, eating a lighter, low calorie meal in the evening can certainly be beneficial. It goes without saying that the best time to eat dinner is earlier than later, if you’re trying to lose weight. So having these low calorie dinners at around 6:30/7pm rather than 9pm or later can also help shed some pounds.
