    The new mag has a few xmas recipes, some good ones for roasts. I posted a free (or 1 syn) chicken liver pate recipe,its in the first few pages I think.
    Had you anything in mind? I have last years xmas mag also I could post a couple of recipes from that if you have a particular course you were thinking of.

    I tried some Couldron meat free sausages this morning for breakfast, as they were reduced in Co-op. They looked and smelled really good,but........tasted somewhat odd and left a really greasy after taste in my mouth! I won't be having those again

    It's quiet in here this morning!

    After last weeks fiasco of coming from every evening to cries of "what shall we eat?!" I've sat down and worked out a menu for the week, ok this only includes evening meals but I can sort out breakfast and lunch easily as I go along, what do you think of this lot?

    Chicken casserole
    Salmon Cannelloni
    Beef lasagne
    Beef burgers and SW chips
    Sausage, SW chips, baked beans and eggs
    Mushroom risotto
    Vegetable soup

    Of course we'll make them all as SW friendly as possible with the odd syn here and there.

    I'm looking forward to it all :)

    I missed breakfast this morning and was desperately hungry by 1pm, bought a cooked chicken and ate it all. (not the skin). so guess I am on a red day today. Am slow roasting some pork shoulder steaks, can anyone suggest what I can serve with it. I guess little or no carbs.

    I also guess I wouldnt be able to have marions rice?

    Oh dear! Rotisserie chicken can be up to 40 syns for a whole chicken _pale_

    Really? What on earth do they put in it? I just thought they brushed them with brown stuff (sugar/paint?) and cooked them.

    Does this mean that the packs of ready cooked chicken, breast and legs etc... in the co-op also have syns?!

    been advised by my SW adviser
    asda n tesco inject them with fat, thats why they taste
    soooooooooo good
    no longer free, best do what i do, cook your own
  • No, its just the hot chickens on spits/in the hot counter, they sometimes inject them wit a oil/sugar solution to keep the meat moist while its kept hot for so long.

    Cooked cold meat is fine.
