This lemon roasted salmon with sweet potatoes and broccolini is so simple to prepare, and makes the perfect delicious and healthy dinner.

Serves 1

113g salmon fillet

1 tbsp olive oil

115g (medium sized) sweet potato

½ tsp cinnamon

1 portion of steamed vegetables of your choice (I chose wilted spinach and asparagus)

1 garlic clove, crushed

1 tsp mixed herbs

Juice of ½ lemon

Cracked black pepper to taste

Begin by slicing your sweet potato into cubes, you can leave the skin on, then add to a roasting pan and season to taste. Put your sweet potato into your oven, pre-heated to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and roast for 30 minutes. Whilst your sweet potatoes are cooking, make the dressing for your salmon. Mix the lemon juice, mixed herbs and garlic together in a small bowl, and then pour over your salmon. Place your salmon in the oven and cook alongside your potatoes for 20 minutes. Whilst your salmon and potatoes are cooking, simply wilt your spinach in a pan, and place your asparagus in a pan of boiling water and cook until tender. Serve with your salmon and roasted sweet potatoes.

This pan-fried chicken, mash and hoisin sauce is bursting full of flavours and make the perfect dinner. Cook up a fresh start!

Serves 2

4 potatoes, peeled

2 garlic cloves

2 chicken breasts

2 bok choy

1 spring onion, sliced thinly

Chicken stock cube

75ml water

2tbsp hoisin sauce

Preheat your oven to 200°C, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks and add to the boiling water and simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender. Pop a frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, lay the chicken in the pan skin-side down for 5 minutes until the skin is golden. Turn, cook for 1 minute on the flesh side to seal the meat. Transfer to a large baking tray skin side up and roast on the top shelf of your oven until cooked, 15-20 mins. Cut off the root of the bok choy and separate the leaves. When the chicken has had 5 minutes in the oven, add the bok choy to the baking tray, around the chicken breasts (not covering), drizzle a little oil over the top and return to the oven for the remaining 10-15 minutes cooking time. Pop your frying pan back on medium high heat. Add a drizzle of oil, then add the hoisin sauce, chicken stock cube and water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat slightly and gently simmer until thickened, for 3-5 minutes. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in your pan. Add the spring onion along with a small amount of butter and milk. Season with pepper and then mash. Pile the mash onto the plates, along with the chicken breast and share the bok choy alongside. Spoon the hoisin sauce over.

2 vegetable stock cubes

2tbsp tomato puree

175g risotto rice

1tbsp apple cider vinegar

This low calorie Macaroni cheese is an indulgent way to end the day and not blow your calories. Great served with a side salad to balance it out or some garlic bread, if you have spare calories.

Serves 4

200g macaroni

40g plain white flour

40g butter

500ml semi skimmed milk

100g medium cheddar cheese

18g grated parmesan

Cook the macaroni in a large pan of boiling water as per pack instructions. Put the flour, butter and milk in a smaller saucepan. Bring slowly to the boil, stirring all the time with a wooden spoon. When the sauce starts to boil, it should have thickened. Turn the heat right down and simmer for about 2 minutes. Take the small saucepan off the heat and stir in the cheese. Drain the pasta and return to the pan. Pour the sauce into the pasta pan and mix well, and spoon into a shallow ovenproof dish. Scatter with the Parmesan. Place the dish under a hot grill and wait for the top to turn golden, serve immediately. I added 86g grilled chicken on the side to reach 600 calories, and also served with a side salad.
