Losing body fat is not about only eating lettuce and half starving yourself.

Plan your day/week and you can still enjoy the food you love.

Especially as the weather is beginning to turn a little colder…. Nothing beats sausage and mash which I can eat and still hit my goals.

There is loads of rhubarb around at the moment. Here is a great way to use some up without feeling guilt.

Cut up the rhubarb into inch ish sized pieces and stew. Lay into an oven tray once drained (save the rhubarb water - can be made into jelly)

Make the crumble to lay on top with: flour (wholemeal of poss), brown sugar and butter. crumble together with fingers ( you could also use oats or go half and half)

While the crumble is finishing in the oven make your low fat custard.

Put all these in a cold pan together:
4 x egg yolk
2 x tblsp brown sugar
Tblsp flour
3 tblsp dried skimmed milk powder
Few drops of vanilla essence or from a pod

Tomato and goats cheese gnocchi

I cannot take the credit for this recipe as I was given a ‘Gousto’ box by a friend.

I didn’t use a generous drizzle of olive oil and instead simmered the tomatoes in a little water. That reduces the fat and calorie content.
