Chilli beef fajitas

1 tsp ground cumin + 1 tsp mexican chilli powder
500 g beef steak thickly sliced
3 different coloured capsicums thickly sliced
1 large onion thickly sliced
8 (28g) tortillas warmed
1/3 c lite sour cream

Combine spices in a small bowl and add meat
Heat frypan (medium-high heat) and cook meat and veges for 7ish minutes.
Place meat, veg and sour cream on warm tortillas and serve.

Points per serve - 5, serves 4, prep 20 mins, cooking 10 mins

Chicken Burgers

1 bagel (3.5 points)
3 slices tegal chicken bacon (1 point)
Lettuce
Tomato
WW spread (.5 point)
20g Lite cream cheese (1 point)
Small amount of sweet thai sauce (.5)

Cook chicken bacon, toast bun, mix lite cream cheese & sweet thai together.

Spread cream cheese on bun, add bacon and salad and EAT.

Sundried Tomato and Caper Meatloaf

400g extra lean beef mince (10.5 points)
2 slices wholegrain bread (2.5 points)
1 egg (1.5 points)
50g sundried tomatoes (not in oil) (1.5 points)
1 onion
1 Tablespoon capers
1-2 cloves garlic
Salt & pepper

Boil the jug and cover the sundried tomatoes with water. Leave to soak for 5-10 mins.
Place bread in a food processor and process into crumbs. Place in a large bowl.
Grate the onion and finely chop the capers and sundried tomatoes (I'm lazy so I just chop these in the food processor instead). Place in the bowl with the breadcrumbs. Add garlic (crushed - I just use 1/2 teaspoon out of a jar), lightly beaten egg, mince, and a bit of salt and pepper.

Mix all ingredients with your wet hands until combined. Place in an oven dish you've sprayed with cooking spray (I use a little loaf shaped lasagne dish) - the recipe says to line the container with greaseproof paper but I haven't needed to.

Bake for 30 mins at 180 °C

Serves 4 (4 points each).

I use goat mince instead which is only 7 points for 400g so it's a bit lower in points but not everyone has access to goat.

Warning - it's possibly too strongly flavoured for the little ones. I wouldn't make it for my niece and nephew who are 4 and 6 (or for the one who's not yet 2 for that matter). Keeps well in the fridge overnight in a sealed container. DH likes it best served with tomato sauce

Im writing down the ingredients on my shopping list as we speak......hmmm hmmm cant wait

220g dark chocolate
125g mini marshmellows
2 tsp ww marg

Scrape into tin and spread with a spatula, smooth into a layer. Put in fridge for about an hour until set and then cut into 12.

Points 2.5 | Prep Time 5 mins | Cook Time 5 mins | Serves 12
