Having a quorn curry tomorrow but I love my pasta - a nice spicy kidney bean pasta sauce was my fave
karren - you can eat quorn on red too so don't be in a rush to use them up!

Baked bean curry sounds brill! I'll have to try that this weekend

Hi hope you dont mind me joining your thread. My other half and I joined slimmers world today. There was a party as it was their 40th birthday.
Funny to say but the weight reading was not as bad as I thought. I was sure that Id feel really down when I found out how much Id put on.
Had vodca jelly and a cheesecake that was only ten sins for the whole thing. Hope Im right on that. Ill find out for sure next week when I get the reciepe.

Someone Correct me if Im wrong but working out the milky way cake bar online:

511 kcal per 100g
5g protein
30.6g fat
53.8g carbs

and I think each bar is 3.5g which makes it 1 syn per bar?

Sorry but each bar is 28g and 7 syns according to syns online.

Thanks Circes - how did you find it? I tried putting all sorts of things in!

Beachbeth - glad you got the book ok. I hope you enjoy the recipes

Jamtart - your answer to anyone who tells you you're too thin to join a group, should be to say that you want to get your BMI within the 'healthy' range. As an aside though, we aren't allowed to accept anyone into group who doesn't need to lose at least 7 lbs. The 'lowest acceptable' weight for your height is in the books and we are supposed to check that anyone coming in is not aiming to be underweight (the ridiculous size 0 for instance).

Skint_Catt - I thought I'd posted my list of "Uses for Quark", but I can't find it myself, so here you go:
Add very low fat fromage frais to quark with some herbs & garlic to make a lovely dip.

---

Add garlic puree (you don’t need very much) to a tub of quark, mix together and keep in the fridge to add to almost anything! Try dipping slimming world chips into it or use as a topping for jacket potatoes.

---

Mix with a tin of tuna, chopped spring onion, red pepper and a tsp of paprika for a sandwich filling or jacket potato topping.

---

Mix salmon with a tub of quark place on a bed of rocket leaves and top with asparagus and black pepper. (Lovely as a starter)

---

Mix quark with cooked leeks, mushrooms, fat free fromage frais or yoghurt and stir through pasta. It makes a really nice creamy sauce.

---

Quark is a good alternative to cottage cheese when making quiche, just whisk it into the eggs and pour over the base mixture.

---

Make a sugar free jelly up as the packet says and set aside to cool (2 sins). Mix a matching flavoured Muller light with a pot of quark. Carefully stir in jelly and allow to set in the fridge over night.

---

Mix equal parts quark and Mullerlight (any flavour). Add a little sweetener and put into ice cream maker - delicious!

---

Add sweetener, mix well and use as a free topping on fruit.
