Ideas Please

[Sweetie]

What do you make for "healthy" meals??? I am having serious cooking block and I really need some help coming up with ideas for things to cook that are good for you/ low fat.

Chicken/ tuna, new potatos and salad are my favourites, or I change the salad for vegetables!

I eat a lot of stir fry!
With lots of peppers and onions, a little bit of VH Teryaki Sauce, and I switch it up between chicken and shrimp!

Omelettes made with egg whites and lots of veggies

Wraps with avocado, chicken, salad, and light ranch or bbq sauce. That's what I eat.

I like pasta. Aslong as you don't go OTT on the actual pasta it stays quite low cal. I bulk it up with veg like sweetcorn, peppers, peas etc etc and chicken. I make an easy peasy sauce with chopped tomatoes, garlic, bit of sugar, ketchup, onion and dried chili. My pasta comes under 450cals a serving

I'm vegetarian and the main meals we have are:

Spaghetti with quorn mince and a sauce we make from chopped tomatoes and frozen veg
Quorn fillets with sweet and sour sauce and brown rice
Stir fry with noodles
Veggie burgers with home-made wedges (made with fry light so the only calories come from the potato)
Haloumi with ciabatta, watercress, and a homemade dressing
Couscous with chunky veg sauce
Quorn roast with roast potatoes, carrots and parsnips

All our cooking is done with frylight rather than oil to save on calories/fats and we try to make sauces and dressings ourselves rather than buy ones that are packed with sugars and artificial stuff. It also works out cheaper a lot of the time.

Had chicken wrapped in bacon last night, with steamed veg (loads of asparagus yumMY!), broccoli, sweetcorns and mini potatoes. Sounds quite boring but it was delish!!
