Recipe: Sensational Pizza

If you are interested in reading about the esteem in which I hold pizza as a go to food, read my simple version comments. I won’t go over it again, but suffice to say when it comes to pizza I am definitely a fan. Kids usually are too, however the ones in our family could [...]
Recipe: Simple Pizza

Filed under Low Fat Kids
I have to come clean, I adore pizza in all its forms and I do mean ALL. I love frozen ones, plastic ones (you know the pizza chains I am referring to) the gourmet ones with all sorts of fun toppings. I love them with and without sauce, I love them with everything from thinly [...]
Recipe: Lunguini and Meatballs (Sensational Version)
April 20, 2010 by Simple or Sensational
Filed under Featured, Low Fat Kids
You can’t beat a meatball recipe with 3 grams of fat. This is also quite a versatile recipe and can just as easily be spaghetti bolognaise. All you need to do is cook the onion until transparent, add the meats and brown. Obviously you would not include the egg. You can also use different pastas, [...]
Recipe: Linguini and Meatballs – Simple Version
April 20, 2010 by Simple or Sensational
Filed under Low Fat Kids
With 2 grams of fat, this is one of the healthiest Linguini and Meatballs around. The picture of the simple and the sensational version are the same because the finished product looks the same. The difference in the simple version is that you buy the tomato sauce which saves a lot of time. Ingredients 7 [...]
Recipe: Simple Mac and Cheese

Macaroni and cheese, although much loved, is a bit of a nutritional wasteland. I like to use celery root in this dish because it is very much like a potato in that it takes on the flavour of whatever it is added to. Therefore kids don’t taste vegetable in this dish. What is lacks in [...]
Recipe: Sensational Mac and Cheese

When I say sensational here I mean more from a child’s point of view rather than an adult (although my husband is a huge fan). This dish has the double barrelled advantage of being individual servings, so no sharing, as each person gets their own. Then there is the surprise layer of bologna as they [...]
Recipe: Seafood Enchiladas
March 7, 2009 by Simple or Sensational
Filed under Low Fat Kids
These are again a dish that your kids may not actually be crazy about, but because they are basically the same as chicken enchiladas, with the only change effectively being a substitution of seafood for chicken, you can easily make both the chicken and the seafood version and serve one to the children and one [...]
Recipe: Chicken Enchiladas

Filed under Low Fat Kids
I love Enchiladas. I particularly love them with lots and lots of cheese. I found that by adding a little mayonnaise and sour cream to the mix I got that creamy, cheesy taste without all the fat. Ingredients 16 oz of chicken 1 teaspoon of white wine vinegar 3 tablespoons of low fat mayonnaise 1 [...]
Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Fingers

Filed under Low Fat Kids
I am unashamed to say that I adore bar snacks. From fried mozzarella sticks to nachos, and fries to wings I love every greasy mouthful. Unfortunately I may as well apply the fat directly to my thighs because I seem to store it virtually overnight. So, whist I can never see a time where I [...]
Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches

Filed under Low Fat Kids
These sandwiches are a great way to use leftover Buffalo chicken for the night before (in truth I have to make more than I need because leftovers are a rarity in my house). But when I am working I find it handy to make a little extra so that lunch for the next day is [...]
