    1.) Prime Rib with a balsamic reduction and gorgonzola crumbles on top, freshly steamed spinach
    2.) Chicken w/my homemade red-currant carolina BBQ sauce (mustard-based) with steamed zukes and roasted red peppers w/gahhhhhlic
    3.) Czechoslovakian Meatballs served with a very savory-herby sauce, smothered in strips of roasted portabella mushrooms and artichokes...

    I have been making a batch of 3 meals at a time.. salady things..

    :smile: Grill a few medium turkey steaks, (or chicken.. (chop to bite size) Or a can of tuna, in brine, not oil)

    Chopped: .. Salad onions, Radishes, Cucumber, Cherry Toms, chop them up small.. cook Quinoa (YUM!) enough for 3 (small) servings.. .. then portion it in 3 containers.. fling the chopped veggies into each.. throw in the meat/tuna a few dashes of Hot sauce.. and If you love garlic (like me!) .. a little squeeze of garlic puree .. quick stir, lid on. Fridge. (Oh! Sometimes I throw in a few spoons of chick peas too)

    I LOVE that meal.. it tastes sooooooo good!.. nice and healthy, and sooo filling!

    :smile: Turkey Meatballs... Minced (ground) turkey, squeeze of tom pureee, chopped onion, herbs, hot sauce? whatever you want.. Roll into balls. fry with 'Fri light' .. (or similar).. just enough to stop them sticking to the pan. . Serve with a small portion of brown rice (YUM!) .. or brown pasta/spaghetti. (or Quinoa or salad!)

    :smile: .. Quick lunch soup, barely any cals! ..

    1 Can of Tomatoes .. (61 cals for the whole tin approx) ..
    Throw them in the blender.. 2 cloves of garlic (take the skins off ;) ..
    I chuck in 8? basil leaves.. (you could use dried herbs, or none at all? .. dash of hot sauce maybe?)
    Squirt of Tom Puree. (10cals?) ..

    WHizz the blender.. then tip into a saucepan to cook (heat up really) ..
    IFFF you want.. you could sprinkle a tiny bit of grated (shredded?) cheese on the top when its in the bowl..

    serve with your fave lo cal bread.. Weight Watchers Wholemeal Danish (45 cals slices) .. x2 ..

    Those are 3 of my 'Go to's' ..

    1) chicken and chorizo stew thing with rice or potatoes or if I've had too many carbs by itself or with cauliflower. Both kids eat this without complaining and even I don't tend to get bored of it.

    2) kofte (meatball) curry - made with turkey mince. With rice.

    3) roast dinner - every sunday. Usually beef or chicken. I alternate the sides as I get bored otherwise. More portion control than really healthy but they're not too bad.

    I get bored with cooking/eating the same things all the time so I try new recipes a lot (usually at least 2 a week).
