Turkey meatballs 

We’ve swapped the usual beef for a mix of low-fat turkey and fiber-rich lentils in these better-for-you meaty mouthfuls.

1 Mix the meatball ingredients with ½tsp fine sea salt. Shape into 16 x 5cm balls.

2 Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Once hot, add the meatballs and sizzle over a high heat, turning occasionally, for 8-10 mins until browned.

3 Add the onion to the pan around the meatballs and cook for 3 mins until softening. Add the wine, bring to a boil for 3 mins, then add the red peppers and passata. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 mins until the sauce is thick and glossy.

4 Garnish with the remaining basil and serve with wholewheat pasta or salad.

Per serving: 291 cals, 8g fat, 2g sat fat, 15g carbs

Spinach stuffed mushrooms
