Im planning on going EE today and was thinking about that stuffed chicken breast wrapped in bacon I have read about on here - quick question - what is is stuffed with.... was it VLF fromage frais or quark (with garlic or herbs etc.)?

Quark with herbs and seasoning, or a healthy A of cheese triangles, I think.

Mmmm I want one now!

Hi Kandi

I used this recipe recently from an old Ainsley Harriet book - prep time 10 mins, cook time 10 mins, serves 4;

4 x Turkey/chicken escalopes
2 garlic cloves - finely chopped
grated rind and juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil or chives (I used chives)
4 slices parma ham (3 syns 28g) or use lean smoked bacon
2 tbl sp olive oil - I used fry light
salt/pepper

Halve escalopes horizontally and open out, season with salt pepper, sprinkle over garlic, lemon rind and chopped herbs. Sandwich pieces back together and wrap with ham/bacon then pin in place with cocktail sticks

Heat Oil/fry light in a frying pan and cook for 4-5 mins until golden brown. Turn over, drizzle with lemon juice and cook for 3-4 mins until cooked through.

It was lovely - really tasty, hardly took any prep time and was really quick and easy to cook.

Hi, thanks for suggestions for stuff to put on my yoghurt, I did consider an Alpen light bar but thought it might be too chewy rather than crunchy if you know what I mean. Will try and use half a one anyway and see.

today im having a EE day

Brekkie (I changed my mind from yoghurt) I made the onion, mushroom and fromage frais toast topper someone mentioned a few days earlier (yum) with 2 slices of wm nimble toast (HEB) 3 slices of lean bacon, all free

Lunch - a huge JP with Chilli (beef), large salad and topped with Fromage frais all free

Dinner will be home made burgers served with half a plate of salad and topped with mushrooms and rest of chilli.

snacks, banana, satsuma, handful of blueberries, shape yoghurt

drinks loads of water and tea using milk from HEA

syns - havnt decided yet, but will be something chocolaty with a cuppa watching Eastenders

You can have another (or two) laughing cows and they could be your snack and your HEa?
Got any pasta and baked beans - thats a good snack!

Afternoon all.
Just popping on quick, before preparing tea.
Having quorn sausage casserole with piles of vegs, a very cheap moneysaving dish, doesnt cost much and leftovers can be eaten next day!

Im afraid low fat spread isnt a hea, it will have to be synned. Hea's are only milk and cheese. And are you sure the Shashlik is free? The rest looks good though

Hi
I have been reading this thread on & off since joining SW last year. I was doing really well - all due to a great consultant and class (It helps to stay every week! ). I had lost 17 1/2 lbs from october up to week b4 christmas and was so chuffed with myself. I have been away for 3 weeks and just got back wed in time for SW yesterday..

I have put on 11 1/2 lbs:eek:

Well now I have picked myself up from off the floor and I am determined to rid myself of the excess I put on (I did have a good christmas and new year but didn't realise just how good:o ).

I am not sure I will try the new plan, but will stick with the known green & red until I have sorted my excess out.

x

Well done everyone for your losses!
