It sounds awful but our family meal every evening is just far too heavy and rich. We eat a good healthy breakfast, plenty of fruit for the kids, lunch is always soup or a sandwich, and more fruit through the day. But our evening meal is always so rich and hearty, and I can't stop myself serving big portions. DP enjoys shepherd's pie, steak pie & chips, fish & chips, spag bol, chilli and rice, lasagne, curry & rice. I do find it easier to eat lighter meals during the summer months when we have cous cous & salmon, or stir fry, but we don't seem to eat these during the winter. I get lazy and sluggish and I get so very tired of coming up with decent family meals!
Any idea how I can persuade DH on to more balanced lighter meals during the winter, and include more veg? If anyone could list me some 'healthy' family meals that your children enjoy eating with you, I would really appreciate it. I know I'm overweight and I feel sluggish too. And my daughters are getting too used to pizza, chips, and heavy pasta meals.
