Skinny Veggie Aubergine, Lentil and Mozzarella Bake Recipe (under 300 kcals)
We are still keeping our calories down 2 days a week and I came across this recipe. I didn’t think we would be able to have cheese but light mozzarella isnt too high in calories. You replace the mince with lentils and I know it sounds strange but it still tastes really meaty and it…
Yakitori and Miso Chicken with Asian Slaw and Peanut Dressing Recipe

This curry was really tasty and light, perfect for some spice in the summer. I can’t believe it comes in at just 152 kcal per portion perfect for the 5:2 diet. Hake is such a good fish to use in curry as it really holds it shape and takes on flavour a bit like…
Whole Wheat Pasta Salad with Halloumi, Lemon and Herbs Recipe
