Chicken and Chorizo Lasagne – 15sp

I often roast a chicken on a Sunday night and then use it throughout the week for lunches and evening meals. This week I decided to try something new and, being a lasagne lover, thought this combo would be really tasty. It is a bit higher in points than some of my other recipes but it really is worth it, filling and packed with flavour. If you don’t have left over roast chicken you could use finely chopped (or minced) chicken breast. Two 165g chicken breasts would be the same overall in points.

Mince Bites – 4sp

I LOVE mince pies but they are always just that bit too pointy to actually not feel guilty about eating them. Craving them still this Christmas I decided to see if I could come up with a low pp alternative and the result were these lovely little delicate bursts of flavour. They are really simple to make and have literally two ingredients and are perfect to take along to a buffet with you to provide yourself with a low smart point option.

Kickin’ Chicken Kebabs – 8sp

I’ve had skewers in my kitchen drawer for months now so thought this weekend I would get them out. I decided to change up a recipe I previously posted (my Sticky Chicken Wings) and change it up, lowering the propoints even further. The result was delicious. I served these kebabs this time with 40g of rice (for an extra 4sp) however you could also make these with Butternut Squash chips for a 0sp option!

Basil, Mozzarella and Tomato Salad – 4sp

This little beauty is exactly what the title suggests. A salad which consists largely of basil, tomatoes and mozzarella. Whilst it may sound a bit dull or boring it is actually a delicious and fresh salad which is both low in propoints and so, so easy to make. It is also a perfect starter option should you be trying to make a low point three course meal. I’ve included half a tsp of olive oil per person as it just helps to make the whole thing a little more slippery but feel free to leave it out for an even lower point alternative.
