  • Tasty syn fress sausages - yes, take a look at joes sausages (google it), they are certified syn free, and I had a delivery not long ago and they are good. They freeze well, which is just as well as minimum order is 8 packets (they also do burgers and marinated meat like peppered pork etc).

    The ones I have tried so far are fairly smooth textured, but nice and strongly flavoured - certainly lots of seasoning and spices being used ...

    maybe there is someone you can split an order with :confused:

    I *think* I posted a link to the recipe pages on my first page post. Have a peek there, if not I shall try and dig it out for you ..:rolleyes:

    Thank you both. I will definately check out joes sausages as we eat loads in our house. When I worked for SW I convinced our local butcher to do syn free sausages and burgers but he has since stopped.... and was quite expensive too. I can make the burgers myself but can't be bothered with the faff of sausage making :D .

    The recipe link at the front of this thread isn't working for me but I will check out minimims - thanks again

    I am not sure I want to admit to this, but , tonight I will be having the dinner I planned for last night. :o

    Wonderful hubby did a lovely thing you see, he popped into Waitrose to pick something up, and noticed they had yellow stickered all their special curry meals - down to 25p :eek: so, being a cost concious lad picked up a chicken korma, a chicken tikka masala, a box of pilau rice, lentil dal and a bread. All for £1.25 :D

    ... and we ate it :o

    Honestly though, we both agreed it was a 'bit bland' and really lacking in textures (oh, and not a veg in sight ) goes to show - it might be a bargain, but we really can do better making our own at home (and I make some fantastic curries even if I do say so myself)

    Oh well, today is another day... :rolleyes:

    EE

    B 0% yog with blueberries and a banana. tea (Milk HA)

    snack satsuma and a banana - after adding onto a post about fruit intake yesterday, I am making an extra effort today - I was shamed

    L wholemeal pasta with roasted butternut squash, oregano and garlic, feta cheese (HA) and chopped tomato

    D (last nights tea ) Joes sausages with parsnips, lentils, garlic and bovril stock (cos its not tuesday, and I think I blew my extras for a few days lol!)

    Hello Everyone,



    It is our taster night tomorrow night at group and I am planning on making a dessert. Can you tell me if this sounds ok?

    Strawberries and blackberries mixed with crushed meringue nests, topped with mullerlight yoghurt (raspberry & cranberry or strawberry flavour).

    The fruit is free, yoghurts are free, the meringue nests are 2.5 syns each. They come in a box of eight. Planning on using all of them, do you think that is too many syns? There are about 20 people that stay to group.

    Jolene
    Thankyou


    Well Damn it!

    Asda haved messed my delivery up:mad:, gave me different meringue nests. So I looked them up on the SW website and they contain 10 syns each! :mad: I am still going to make the dessert but say this it what i should have used, I think people will still eat it.

  • thank you for the sausage list..... that's really helpful.

    I've tried a lot of the low cal/syn sausages before and not found the taste to be all that good.

    Think i'll be trying joes sausages seeing as a couple of people have recommended them.

    1. Cook a SW meal you have NEVER had before!
    Said i would make the baked bean lasange, never got round to that yet but did make the sw egg custard & the tikka masala sauce..
    2. Do 15 mins EXTRA exercise in addition to what you normally do! - Have taken my dog on a few extra walks this week.

    3. Buy and eat a piece of fruit you have not had for ages! -Got a grapefruit
    4. Add your own personal target for the week here. lost 1.5lb at WI this morning, not as much as i hoped but it is my *star week.

    B: glass water & a banana (was in a hurry!)
    L: jkt pot & beans with 42g reduced fat cheddar (HEA) glass water & diet coke. an orange
    D: mushrooms egg grilled toms. bacon (HEB) & chopped up potato fryed in frylight. mullerlight. another glass water.
