Change your quantities. If you are dieting and using phrases like "mountain
of mixed fresh veg", then you need to cut back. Sorry to be so blunt, but you
can't eat mountains of anything when dieting.


Vegetables (excluding corn, potatoes or other starchy vegetables) are unlimited on my
food plan, which has worked very well for me.

Well, if it worked for you Mary it's good enough for me. I'm glad I
know enough about dieting and food intake to not listen to some of the
daft advice that gets handed out here. It's exactly things like
potatoes (which I rarely eat) and corn (which I weigh carefully) that
I don't include in my mountain.

None. When I eat pasta, I eat more than a normal portion so that's all I eat.

Fair enough; I shouldn't care for it, but I'm not you!

That's what I like about couscous. OK, I know it's not pasta,


Actually, I believe it counts as pasta, being more like semolina than
anything else.

but if
you eat it with a mountain of mixed fresh veg with a little stock
poured over, it doesn't need any sort of rich or fatty sauce with it.


Indeed no! And lots and lots of harissa..... I never know quite what to
do for protein, though, as if I just have couscous & veg, I get hungry.
I suppose a little grilled or poached chicken?

I do like pasta with just veggies, too, though.


Me too, but I tend to sprinkle grated cheese on top.

You can when it's vegetables; I was looking at the pack of salad I had
half of last night, and the nutrition information tells me that 100
grammes contains 18 kcal. Now, I had less than that - half of a 160g
pack, so 80 g - and I can assure you, that was a mountain of mixed fresh
vegetables!
