My fav meal so far has been a meatballs pasta bake. Make balls using extra lean mince and cook as many as u need- freeze the rest- I use 125gms per person. Grill them until cooked. Meanwhile cook some pasta- I Allow 75grms of dried pasta per person. in another pan make a tom sauce- passata & herbs, dash worcestershire sauce & mushrooms, onions, peppers & heat it up. once all cooked drain pasta n mix in sauce & meatballs. Cook in oven at about 180 for 20 mins. If u can find a cheese within rules u can grate this & sprinkle on top.
I work it out at about 530 cals & 7.5gms fat for whole meal (without cheese)

I'm going to try both of those recipes, they sound lovely. My fave meal is chilli made with a tin of chopped toms, some chilli powder, half a tin of baked beans, a couple of squirts of tomato puree, onion and a couple of cloves of crushed garlic with 250g of leanest steak mince. I serve it with boiled rice and it easily feeds a family of four. Never worked out the exact calorie content though

Not such a fat kat now :)
I make a yummy bolognese sauce that I use as my basis for spag Bol , lasagne and over the top if meatballs.
It's one onion, one courgette, one red pepper Nd one carrot . All blitzed together then add one tin of tomatoes and passata. Then add either asda bolognese herbs or individual ones - oregano, paprika, thyme, basil and pepper
Blitz a bit longer.
It looks like a jar of bought sauce but is a great way of getting hidden veg into kids without them knowing

Not a recipie - but I was desperate for something naughty earlier in the week and thought I was going to fall off the wagon - you know when you feel you can not poosibly eat another salad, piece of fruit or vegetable??! I went into M&S food and they do some fantastic ready meals in their "count on us" range - I have had braised beef and veg and luxury fish pie this week - both within in the rules!! Feeling much better now and ready to fend of the temptation of Easter eggs!! I am not a great fan on ready meals but these are highly recommended!! xx

Last night we had Uncle Bens Lighter Korma Sauce. its 5.9 per 100g so just a bit over, but well worth it!
Tonight we had Egg White Omlette with Fresh CHives and Spring Onion in the mix and then mushrooms and chicken breast inside once folded over. Really Yummy, had it with a side salad.
