I work Ft and and am a single mum too so just have no time (or appetie) for sausages, eggs etc in the morning but I do NEED a big breakfast. I've been having a double portion of cereal for breakfast but that means I either have to stay off the extra easy (because it would need 2 HEBs) or use up some of my sins.
I have a portion of fruit with my cereal (summer fruits, melon or banana usually) but I have it with fat free yogurt instead of milk. It saves a HE, is syn free, and is much more filling than milk. If you have a sweet tooth you could have a Muller Light instead of natural yog.
Hope this helps.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

Food today has been
B - weetabix [bs], milk [a], coffee
L/T - noodles, 3 quorn burgers [1.5 syns], mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, muller.
Snacks - oaty bar [3.5 syns], 1 fizzy milk bottle [.5 syn], 25g crisps [6.5 syns]
Syns - 12
I have 3 weetabix everyday as 2 aren't enough to fill me up. I either have them as both b's or 1 b and 3.5 syns so I can have a fibre plus for the other b. I can't be arsed to weigh stuff especially 1st thing in the morning when I'm running round like a blue arsed fly so weetabix does it for me :rotfl:Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T

I made this last night. Marinated chicken in milk with chopped garlic. Mixed some ground rice crispies, flour, paprika, chilli powder, salt & pepper, coated chicken in it & oven baked for around 20 mins. I reckon there was only around 2 syns per large breast, and that's probably an over estimate. Was stunned to see it smelt & looked like the real thing :T. Tasted great, but not quite the same - it was missing the deep fried taste, will definitely be making again
. Better than the Birds Eye or any supermarket one by a long way.
Edit to say - I'm not blowing my own trumpet, I'm not a great cook, so stunned at how easy & good it wasA positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0
