Mexican Penne
Easy, one dish meal. Got this off of the back of the pasta box and changed it a bit to fit our tastes. I seem to be on a Mexican kick lately.
Kale and bacon soup
Kale soup is great for batch cooking as it freezes so well. Priya tops hers with fried bacon and grated Parmesan, so it’s got tons of flavour. Don’t be tempted to season with salt while cooking the soup as the stock, bacon and Parmesan are all quite salty. With a GI of 48, this meal is high protein, low GI. Each serving provides 410kcal, 19g protein, 32g carbohydrate (of which 21g sugars), 20g fat (of which 7.5g saturates), 9g fibre and 2.9g salt.
Potato hash with tomatoes, pepper and kale
This easy one-pan supper has crispy potatoes and kale, juicy tomatoes and peppers, and set eggs with perfectly runny yolks. Each serving provides 480 kcal, 25g protein, 56g carbohydrates (of which 10.5g sugars), 15g fat (of which 4g saturates), 9.5g fibre and 1.1g salt.
Vegan ‘tuna’ sandwich filler
Chickpeas are the base of this protein-packed sandwich filler. Add Tabasco and pickled jalapeños for a lunchtime kick. Each serving provides 197 kcal, 7.7g protein, 15.2g carbohydrate (of which 2.1g sugars), 10.1g fat (of which 0.8g saturates), 6.3g fibre and 0.45g salt.
Easy tuna salad pot
Put this filling tuna salad together the morning or night before and take it to work. Keep a pot of homemade dressing in your desk drawer for your salads.
