I think to have a good diet you need a good calorie control:
for teenagers 13 above you need roughly :
2000 a day - Women
2500 a day - Men
For perspective an apple is 80 kcals.
This also means having somthing from nearly all major food groups :
Carbohydrates
Protein
Milk Produce
Fruit Vegetables.
Fat ( Dont cut it out all together but have it in moderation)

Breakfast:
A good cereal perhaps whole grain and an apple with a glass of pure fruit juice ( make sure to check sugar content in the juice as some companies balace out the lack of flavour with it)
Lunch:
A sandwich with wholemeal/Hovis best of both bread fresh lettuce helmans light mayonaise and a white meat or even for a lower calorie meat try quorn slices only 2% fat per slice.
Dinner:
Try a nice wholemeal pasta and for the sauce a tin of tomatos and some dried herbs.
Try a fresh salad with some low fat mayonaise or dressing.
Try a homemade soup using left over meat, vegetables and stock cubes finish of by blending. serve with a nice whole meal roll.
Pudding:
Try making your own puddings and having smaller ammounts of your favourites.

Tips:
try replacing red meats with white meat or quorn.
try to eat foods you normally would but dont eat to much of them

Depends on what you eat. You can easily consume 2500 calories for those three meals, just depends on high fat/calorie content of the meal.
Also, you could mabe have a desert lets say after your tea and potentially it could add 400 kcals onto your meal.

But good stuff mate..

..Least there is finally somthing else who knows their part about food!
