I have wanted to try baked tomatoes for ages. I did stuffed peppers a while back and they turned out good. As the summer is starting to wind down I really wanted to have a go. In my local grocers they had some large tomatoes in stock, perfect I thought. The chorizo works so well…

Chicken, Summer Squash, Tomato and Couscous One Pot Recipe (5:2 Diet 283 kcal)

Red Mullet on a Red Pepper, Tomato, Olive and Basil Stew Recipe
This dinner is healthy, simple but really tasty. I think red mullet is an under rated fish, it’s funny because I don’t like the grey variety as they taste a bit muddy. To keep it on our 5:2 diet we served the fish with a stew and alongside whole wheat couscous. The flavours are really…

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
