What do you like to eat? How much time do you want to spend cooking? It's hard to give advice on stuff like this without knowing anything about you and your lifestyle.
Generally, I've found Pinterest to be a good place to find recipes online.1 -
Go to Pinterest...go to YouTube. Me personally I like having cook books to look through to get inspired. I make lots of crockpot meals then I have leftovers for days.0

I just started googling different things like "low calorie recipes" or "healthy recipes with [food I like]" and saved pages or whole websites that had recipes I wanted to try. I import some of them into the recipe builder to see where it puts me calorie-wise and make adjustments to the recipe there.0

Skinnytaste.com is a good one.3

Eatingwell.com = healthy recipes2

Try making small changes to what you normally eat. For instance, instead of using potatoes, substitute sweet potatoes. If you eat white pasta and rice, switch to wholewheat pasta and brown rice, and have them in smaller portions. Add extra veg like peas, asparagus, spinach, mushrooms, to an omelette. Grill chicken and take the skin off. Start with simple meals like stir fries, soups, one pot casseroles, and slowly build up to more complicated ones when you feel confident.0
