The focus of the meals we are cooking are to make them healthy and filling for your family.  We can do this by swapping unhealthy ingredients with healthy ingredients.  These are the changes we made yesterday we used yesterday:

Swap with 1 tablespoon of canola oil or margarine

Swap for learning mince Eg: premium or prime 

Reduce to 1/4 tsp iodized salt 

Reduce - Use tomatoes with no added salt or fresh tomatoes 

Reduce by half due to salt content Add vegetables such as grated carrot and peppers for fiber and nutrients 

Can use wholemeal pasta for increase fiber Check- using a non-stick pan 

Flavor - add fresh tomatoes and herbs for flavor boost instead of salt

I would also add peas, more meat and double the amount of food.
