Skinny Veggie Aubergine, Lentil and Mozzarella Bake Recipe (under 300 kcals)

Cauliflower, Gnocchi and Blue Cheese Bake Recipe

As I’m still trying to move away from white processed flour I thought I would have a go at whole wheat gnocchi particularly as the pasta turned out so well. As the whole wheat does have a flavour I needed something strong to go with it, I love sun dried tomato’s so I made a…
