With a few substitutions, I was able to keep 4 quesadillas to 400 calories & pack over 35 grams of protein! The egg whites and mushrooms are two high volume foods that will help keep you fuller for longer while keeping the calories low. You can use pork chorizo or soyrizo; the macros are almost identical.
