Gotta love a simple quick meal at dinner time, and this one is pretty effortless. All cooked in the time it takes to get your sides ready and the kids will love it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I love chicken mince (or ground chicken), it's a great alternative to regular beef mince and can be combined with all kinds of different seasonings sauces for variation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when I added some to my shopping cart this week, I knew meatballs were on the cards and I wanted something really easy but flavoursome to go with some plain rice and stir-fried veggies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently I have started added breadcrumbs to my meatballs, but when divided up into portions it's really great and helps to keep the meatballs lovely and tender. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I've used regular fine breadcrumbs before, but for these, I opted for some panko and omg the result was amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These meatballs were super addictive and really tasty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food and meals need to be enjoyable and as this is a long life journey, not an overnight trip where you can revert back to old eating habits. You can ensure you can eat absolutely anything within moderation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So if you fancy that little bit of fat on your bacon or real butter on your toast, olive oil on your roasted vegetables, breadcrumbs in your meatballs\/meatloaf, or some avocado at breakfast. Use your points for exactly that!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I've seen so many comments out there on social media, lately where others are shocked that someone might use their points on this kind of stuff or a certain ingredient in their meal instead of a chocolate bar, or a bag of crisps etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Points are not just for junk\/processed snack foods. So use them on whatever you want to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
