If you’re trying to keep your waistline under control, a good rule of thumb is make sure that each meal you consume is no more than 300 calories. When a cup of rice clocks in at around 200 calories you can understand how easy it is to eat more than you need in a meal. Here’s a short list of my favourite recipes from the around web that are cheap, healthy and around 300 calories each.
