I found this super low calorie recipe for Veggie Pot Pie Stew and was easily able to add some chicken and even more veggies and still keep it under 200 calories. This one is tasty, hearty, comfort food!

5:2 Chicken Pot Pie Stew (204 calories)


Chicken Pot Pie Stew

1 cup onion (60)
2 cups celery, sliced (about 2 stalks, 40)
2 cups potato, 1/2" cubes (200)
2 cups carrots, sliced (104)
2 cup fresh green beans, trimmed & cut small (80)
4 oz. cooked, chopped chicken (136)

1.5 cups water (0)
1.5 tsp. chicken bouillon (10)
1 tsp. dried thyme (4)
1/2 tsp. salt (0)
1/2 tsp. black pepper (1)

2 Tbsp. cornstarch (20)
2 cups skim milk (160)


1) Add all ingredients except for the cornstarch and milk to a large pot (4 qt.) and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to medium-high, cover, & cook for 30 minutes. (Stir the bottom every 10 minutes to keep from burning.)

2) In a small bowl or cup, mix the cornstarch with 2 Tbsp. of the milk and stir together with a fork until smooth. And the cornstarch and the rest of the milk to the pot and cook for 5 minutes?, until thickened.
