The first recipe that I tried was from Jamie's 15 minute meals.
The recipe can be found on page 48 for Golden Chicken with braised greens and potato gratin.
I followed the recipe to the letter and added all the ingredients into pro points and the point value per portion was 15 points.
This meal servers 4.
When I made the gratin I did not have a food processor or a mandolin to cut the potato's into thin slices so I did this bit by hand and cut them all to about the same thickness.
In the recipe Jamie says to pour boiling water over the potato's which I did, and then I put them on a medium heat for 15 minutes so that they were almost cooked.
Everything else worked to the letter of the recipe.
I would give this meal 7 out of 10 for taste and 8 out of 10 for ease of cooking.
As diet food is normally bland or taste less it is nice to find recipes that can be cooked that are low in fat and high in taste.
I have found this link which will take you to the recipe so that you can have a go yourself.
