This ground beef recipe has become a favourite in my house. The Korean flavours are so good without being spicy at all, unless you also make the sauce! you can absolutely batch cook this or at least make an extra portion or two for the next day. The rest of the bowl can be changed with the season and whatever you feel like or need. A fried egg on top is a favourite extra for me.
A delicious protein rich and fibre rich curry, The red lentils thicken up the sauce as well as providing you with plenty of iron along with the spinach. You can serve this with a small helping of brown rice - but you have plenty of fibre-rich carbs with the chickpeas and lentils and so for a lower carb option the rice is not necessary.

When in season, I like to serve with grilled asparagus on the side.
With a 200g cod portion per son and the lentils, you will achieve 40-45g protein per portion.
This is a real family favourite. You can mix up the greens to whatever the family enjoy. It’s also super quick and easy. It’s high in protein with a chicken breast per serving. The edamame beans will also add a little more protein. i feel it doesn’t need any extra carbs - but you could serve with a little brown rice if needed.

You can also add / hide more veggies in there depending on what you’ve got available.
Turkey mince is a wonderful lean and affordable meat to use. It can be very blend and therefore has to be dressed! This burger is so tasty and easy to make ahead. This could also be made into meatballs and used in a ramen bowl. Fresh ginger, coriander, lime and spring onions are a match made in heaven. Add a little chilli if you like it hot.
This chicken recipe is fabulous for so many reasons; the chicken and marinade quick and easy to make and you make as much of this as you like for dinner and cook extra for a couple of lunches.

My son also pointed out he would serve it in a wrap with guacamole, salad, tomatoes and red onions! You’ve got to try it!

My children scored this a 9.2/10 - and said it would have been 9.8 without the chard! Spinach can be used or other greens if your family aren’t keen on kale either. I have mentioned the brands of harissa paste and chickpeas as these are really good brands that make such a difference to the overall dish. See tip below for protein content of the dish.
A really quick and easy baked chicken recipe. Marinating the chicken thighs in yoghurt and spices makes it really tender. You could cook this in either an air fryer or oven. I allow 2 chicken thighs per person - but adapt for different portion sizes as needed.
