Yet another simple, quick and healthy meal to end the day.

This recipe makes rather a lot lol enough for 2 meals and then at least 2/3 lunch’s for the rest of the week.

Ingredients:

630g Turkey mince
2 medium onions
10 button mushrooms
2 small red peppers
2 cans of chopped tomatoes
2 garlic cloves
2 tbs of tomato purée
1 small red chill
2 tbs of chilli powder (or as much/ little as you like)

A bunch of lettuce leaves instead of tortilla wraps (though you could use them, but as I’m on a wheat and gluten free diet lettuce leaves are great for wrapping).

Cheese and sour cream for toppings.

Step 1

Simply chop up all the veg and fry in a little oil. Once softened, add the turkey mince and cook till browned.

Step 2

Add the tomatoes, tomato purée and cook for about 5/6 minutes.

Plate up with lots of lettuce and created cheese! BOOM! Enjoy.

Quick Lunch

Standard

How something so simple can be so tasty is beyond me. This meal took me all of 60 seconds to prepare, 20 minutes to cook and about another 60 seconds to eat lol

Simply quarter 3 small sweet potatoes, drizzle over a little oil (I’m on a rice bran kick at the minute), pinch of sea salt, pepper, mixed herbs and bake along side your meat of choice.

I had some thin turkey fillets but salmon or cod would be perfect. Season and bake the whole lot for about 20 minutes.

Serve simply as it is with a table spoon of pesto on top on your meat. I had some of my home made pesto left over from yesterday which was seriously delicious… Even if I do say so myself!

… Make extra and take it to work for lunch tomorrow! Enjoy!

Pastry Free Quiche

Standard

Sometimes it’s such a chore to make breakfast. All you wanna do is grab something quick and be on your way. On a high protein diet I don’t always have time to make an omelette or scrambled eggs. Though both quick you still have to chop, whisk, fry… and at 6 in the morning this is just a chore!

These tarts or pastry free quiches are simple, tasty and packed with protein. If not for breakfast then you could eat two for lunch with some salad or even take them on a picnic… When summer finally arrives lol

Ingredients:

6 large eggs
1 large chicken breast
1 red onion
5 mushrooms

Step 1

Chop the chicken, onion and mushrooms into small pieces. Fry in a little oil until cooked.

Bake for 10 – 12 minutes until the egg is firm and your good to go!

As a quick tasty snack, breakfast on the go or with salad for lunch, this is the perfect quick fix!
