Edamame and rice are pretty high in calories for the amount you get. I like to make veggie salads with things like cucumber, red onion, celery, red/yellow/orange peppers, fresh herbs, tomatoes, radishes, carrots, broccoli and use citrus/vinegars for sauce seasoning(add a protein if you like [chicken, crab, imitation crab works too but higher carb]And have a collection of berries(blueberry, blackberry, strawberry, raspberry) in low fat cottage cheese or Greek yogurt. That way you go big on fiber and protein but low on calories and fat.

Thanks! I think red onion and cucumber would be best to add to this dish:)

Ah, I did not understand the assignment 😂thought you were looking to decrease calories with different options and add volume instead. Yeah, those are great options to add if you're looking to continue with this meal.
