    Thanks claire, I've had a google and that looks like them. Just wanted to know I wasn't blowing SW out of the water, I haven't had any syns yet today so it'll be fine.

    Vixie_Pixie- what are the banana bisks? Sound intriguing!

    I've had one of those days where the syns have just crept up. Still below 15 but I thought they would be lower!

    B-2 x Weetabix (HEB1), SS Milk (HEA1), Tsp Sugar (1syn)

    L-Cheese Mugshot (2 syns), 30g WM Roll (3.5 syns), Pear

    D-Jacket Potato, FF Cottage Cheese, Salad, Dressing (1 syn), Banana, LF Yogurt, Fibre Plus Bar (HEB2)

    S-Ainsley Harriott Cereal Bar (7 syns), Cherries, Strawberries

    = 14.5 syns

    :footie: Following on from my 'England versus' World Cup menu on Saturday (Southern 'fried' chicken & SW chips - nom nom nom) I thought I'd do the same Friday. Cue search for Algerian recipes, fully expecting to be doing a Moroccan tagine as there would be no Algerian dishes....... there are hundreds of them! So far have ruled out Camel Couscous & Warm camel strips and potato croutons drizzled with a little extra walnut oil :eek:.

    Edit: Slovenia looks trickier - Stuffed Beef Entrails anyone? or maybe Dormouse Stew _pale_

    :eek:Could anyone help me with syns on beefburgers.
    I got them from butcher so no wrappers.
    They are sold as steakburgers and I grilled and ate 2 with mushy peas!!
    Thought if grilled and steakburger they would be lean, not too much fat dropped out on grilling. I wasn't counting any syns on Extra Easy. Should I??

    They are yummy! With yog they give such a nice crunch! You only get 28g as a heb which isn't a lot but they can be bulked out! :) You have them with 1 ryvita w/g crackerbread :)
