I'm in dire need of some new recipes. Yummy, low calorie and preferably something my kids (2.7 years and 18 months) will like too. Nothing too spicy or 'out there'. Just simple yum yum foods. Meals or cake bake stuff. Thanks! :)

    Make your family's favorite recipe, eat smaller portions. Magically lowers the cals of the dish

    this. if still hungry, add simple salad.
    my fav low calorie meals are:
    salad and small sandwich
    salad and small portion of lasagne
    salad and 2 slices of pizza

    I'm sure you get the point...

    I agree with ACG - just make your family's favourites and you can always bulk up your portion with veg or salad for far fewer calories :)

    I understand the smaller portions fewer calories thing but I mean I need different recipes! Something new. Not the same thing over and over. Some so I won't get bored of doing it.

    this was one of my favorite recipes, and i made it for my family and they all loved it! i have a 16 year old brother, who always likes the fattiest foods and he even ate it too, liked it, and had no complaints!
