In need of a good website with recipes for dinner.

Options
I am having trouble thinking about what to cook for dinner for my husband and I. I need simple recipies that are easy to measure out a serving where I will know the calories. Not recipies with crazy things in it like wine and crazy spices that normal people don't keep on hand in their kitchen. PLEASE HELP MY HUSBAND IS STARVING!! lol

    I will give the standard answer because it is my favorite.
    www.skinnytaste.com
    I have tried a lot of the recipes and they almost all have been awesome!
    (The one I didn't like was my fault for adding to much lime)

    Allrecipes has been my go to website for virtually everything. They have a 5 ingredient or less section:

    I adore SkinnyTaste and I have liked just about everything I have cooked from there. :)

    I use both Skinny Taste and Allrrecipes. I tend to use my own versions and especially different things I like that may make something healthier (ie using cauliflower instead of mashed potatos)

    Sparkpeople.com is another "diet" website and they have a section with thousands of recipes that are rated by users, and have the nutritional values worked out for you. I have tried several and they were all really good.

    I love www.bbcgoodfood.com it has loads of healthy recipes and it tells you how many calories, fat, carbs etc are in each serving so its really easy to then just add it to your food diary x

    Since skinnytaste (one of my favorites) has already been listed... you should also check out

    www.emilybites.com
    www.preventionrd.com
    www.eat-yourself-skinny.com

    all these sites are excellent, and like skinnytaste they all give nutritional info for all the recipes. enjoy!

    I like the BBC Good Food website, gives me loads of inspiration. I also put pictures of all my meals and links to recipes on my food diary blog - ameliasfooddiary.wordpress.com. Shamless plug, I know, but it might give you some inspiration :)

    I just found this site a couple days ago. So far I love it.
    http://www.skinnykitchen.com/

    Or

    http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/
    It is really simple to throw in chicken breast or lean meat in to these recipes.

    I get a lot of recipes from Pinterest.... I find a lot under the "Health & Fitness" section. There are a lot of recipes in the "Food" section, but they're not all healthy, so you have to be careful if you look there.

    eatingwell.com

    allrecipes.com

    Never sure what is "normal" food and what is not, but there are lots of good recipes at all three of those.
