Great ideas thank you so much. I've been eating same things all the time thinking that's all we can have. It's nice to see a variety. Now I think I'll cut out meat most days and treat Sunday dinner once a week x

I really like the merchant gourmet range. Spelt is a great alternative to rice and is low in protein and fat.
Ocado: Merchant Gourmet Ready To Eat Spelt 250g(Product Information)
I am planning on eating a pack of this plus a waitrose vegetable layer on thursday. That will be 770 cal, 23g fat, 24g protein. Nice and filling!
Half a pack of spelt, if you are sharing it with your DH and adding other things to it is 230 cal, 3.8g fat and 6.6g protein. You could have any veggies with it.

I have also eaten their red and white quinoa but can't remember what I had it with!
Ocado: Merchant Gourmet Ready To Eat Red & White Quinoa 250g(Product Information)
half a pack of this is 250 cal, 7.6g fat and 7.6g protein. It would go nice with any veggies or in salads. I would probably have the whole pack in a big salad knowing me!

These pies are VERY yummy and I never get any complaints from DH when we have these!
Ocado: Higgidy 2 Roasted Mediterranean Vegetable Tarts 310g(Product Information)
One pie is 380 cal, 25.7g fat and 10.5g protein. So this is good for someone doing 60g fat per day like me
Ocado: Slow Roasted Tomato & Brie Tartlets Waitrose 2 x 130g(Product Information)
These are 353 cal, 19g fat and 8.5g protein
So I get whichever pie I happen to fancy that week. We usually have them with parmentier potatoes and lots of veggies, whatever veggies are on offer. I have also had them with boiled potatoes which is good for keeping fat content in check (as parmentier potatoes have more fat but are so much tastier!!)
parmentier potatoes for anyone who doesn't know:
Ocado: Parmentier Potatoes Waitrose 500g(Product Information)
Half a pack is 307 cal, 14g fat, 5g protein

Ocado: Goats Cheese & Spinach Slice Frozen Waitrose 2 x 100g(Product Information)

Ocado: Red Cabbage Waitrose 300g(Product Information)
and yes, you guessed it, LOTS of yummy roast veggies (roasted on a tin with fry light!) in our case this week, it will be leek, asparagus and babycorn.
that will be 577 cal, 27g fat, 9g protein

This is another very yummy meal but depends if you like anchovies/are eating anchovies as part of your diet:
Ingredients:
Either use linguine or spaghetti. I like the fresh ranges from waitrose (e.g. -
Ocado: Fresh Linguine essential Waitrose 500g(Product Information)) I use 1/3 pack per person, serves 4 my butt!!
Tin of anchovies (Ocado: Anchovy Fillets In Extra Virgin Olive Oil Waitrose 50g(Product Information))
Tendersteam broccoli
Garlic cloves - as many as you like
Chilli flakes - as much or as little as you like
Parmesan, or veggie parmesan (I like Ocado: Divo Vegetarian Grated Italian Hard Cheese by Aldo Zilli 80g(Product Information))
Method:
Have the pasta cooking in its own pan
I use a bit of the oil from the tin of anchovies in a wok. I add the chopped garlic to this and let the garlic soften for a minute or 2.
Chop up the anchovies and add to the wok
Chop the broccoli and add to the wok.
One the broccoli is coated in the garlicy anchovy goodness, add the cooked pasta and coat it as much as possible in all of this. Chuck in as much parmesan as you would like.
Serve on plates and add more parmesan if you want to.
If you like basil, its nice to add some chopped up basil leaves whilst cooking.
I love this meal. It is also nice to have a fillet of baked salmon on this if you are on a cheat day.
without the salmon: 400 cal, 11g fat, 22g protein
with the salmon: 690 cal, 30g fat, 49g protein

Variety is key on LE Diet both to be certain you're getting all the nutrients you need for your health (without having to take prenatals) and also it makes it MUCH easier to stick to than that horrible old sway diet where people were eating plain pasta and greek yogurt.
