Another Boy Pleaser Meal

As you all know by now the boys are all about the meat and potato dishes.  My challenge is finding ways to make it healthier sider.  So I share with you another meatloaf and mashed potato dish.  Both of these were rather simple to make and both boys went back for seconds, Cole even had thirds!

First off is a Skinny Turkey-Spinach Meat Loaf now I did all ground turkey since I had it on hand and no one here seems to mind it.  PLUS I was able to sneak in spinach, which in this house is not that hard except for Rick … lol.

Next on the list was Skinny Garlic Mashed Potatoes from my favorite site Skinnytaste.com.  These were simple to make and the boys of course loved them.  Another simple one but a crowd pleaser!

Hope you find this to your table soon.  Tonight is our Tuesday dinner friends plus we have another friend joining our table tonight.  So we’ll be adding a place and enjoying Old-Fashioned Spaghetti & Meatballs (Eating Healthy) and Lighter Cheesy Garlic Bread.

What’s for dinner tonight?

  1. Just took a look at the spaghetti and meatballs recipe for tonight. I'm printing it off for our Saturday night dinner with friends. Looks delish! I have no idea where I'll find bulgur in our dinky little town though. Any suggestions for substitutions?
