i dont want to go on a diet but the food we eat as a family is pure crap. although being poor is no excuse its the only one i have, we have a bog standard egg n chips kinda diet and we need to change. my husband is a big man who wont do "namby pamby shit" whatever that means. we need help and we need you to advise and dispell some myths.
so for tea tonight i cooked two meals
one was noodles with hotdog sausages for the children - now the noodles are the 20p noodles in a packet
the other meal was potatoes into chips deep fried. cheap burgers and beans.
i dont need telling the second meal was putrid crap
how am i doing with the first meal?
the kids and i like pastas, but are relativley new to them - and sometimes we use the sauces in a jar, sometimes i used tinned tomatoes.
you have to be realistic in your advice - i cannot possibly spend ages in preparing food - peeling potatoes in my limit.
potatoes are a staple part of out diet - which ways are best to use them
lean mince - is this ok - how should i coook it - with what - how do you actually make a tasty spag bol and is it good for you?
muller corner yoghurts - we eat a tonne of these - are these bad?
tell me about new salads and new low fat dressings
we are not fish people ( unless it is covered in batter)witht he exception of tuna - not salmon.
tuna comes with mayo - any low fat mayo ok? any other ways to prepare it
we have made a decision to throw the deep fat fryer away along with the salt shaker.
if we cant get a decent filling meal we will go mad
my cupboards are empty - help me fill them with delicious filling healthy foods - not diet stuff - am not interested - interesting and healthy.
i just got paid - we shop at tesco. if it comes from a packet it is my best friend
help me
thank you
