Is there a syn free/low syn recipe for lasagne out there? [ Bet MrsM knows one ] I really fancy lasagne, hubby is gonna make a 'normal' one for him and chewy so I want a SW one for me. He's also making garlic bread but I [STRIKE]might[/STRIKE] will avoid that

Had a bit of a shock earlier when I heard my nephews little girl was rushed to hospital with a febrile convulsion as her temperature spiked. Shes ok now but was very scary at the time.

Hope the little one is better now, what a scare

The recipe below is syn-free on Green & EE:-

Lasagne (0 Syns and 1 Healthy Extra)

8-12 Lasagne Sheets
1 Large Onion, finely chopped
3 Garlic Cloves, crushed
Fry Light
1 Large Pack of Fresh Quorn™ Mince
2 x 400g Tin of Tomatoes
Parsley and Oregano
1 x 200g Pot of Very Low Fat Natural Yogurt
28g per person grated Cheddar Cheese (using Healthy Extras)
2 Egg Yolks & 1 Whole Egg
A Pinch of Nutmeg
Black Pepper
Pinch of sweetener

• Set the oven to 190˚C/ Fan assisted 170˚C
• Spray a large frying pan with fry light and fry the onions and garlic.until softened
• Add the Quorn mince and tomatoes and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and cover and simmer for 15 – 20 minutes
• Remove from the heat and add the seasoning and sweetener
• Lightly spray a lasagne dish with fry light.
• Line the bottom with lasagne sheets. Cover with some of the mixture and layer the lasagne sheets on top
• Repeat, ending with the lasagne sheets
• In a bowl mix together the yogurt, grated cheese, eggs, nutmeg and seasoning.
• Pour this over the lasagne.
• Bake for 20 – 30 minutes or until brown

This is one of my favourite recipes. I'm not much into Indian food and much prefer Chinese:-

King prawn fried rice (FREE on EE)

Basmati rice
Finely chopped spring onion (include the green tops)
Handful of frozen petit pois (mostly for the colour)
1 or 2 egg omelette (allow to cool and slice/chop)
King prawns
Pinch of grated ginger (optional)

Make fried rice by boiling as much as you require as per packet instructions, preferably several hours before it is required.

Spread rice out on a baking sheet to dry.

Heat a wok sprayed with Frylight, put in the rice, finely chopped onion and frozen petit pois. Stir for a few minutes to cook off the onion. Drop in the slices of omelette and the prawns. Add a few drops of Soy Sauce and stir till everything is thoroughly heated.

Serve immediately.

A potato and spinach side dish, along with the bhajis would inch it towards 1/3rd superfree would it ?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/food/article-1159962/Recipe-Chickpea-potato-spinach-curry.html Such as this, but using Frylite to make it free on EE, or of course you could syn the oil ?

Hi Lynz - potatoes are not superfree (remember, they would be free on aGreen day but not on a Red day) but the spinach is. If you made a spinach and cauliflower or tomato side dish, that would double your superfree

I joined last night and it was £9.95 - saucy secrets is £2.95, don't know about the other ones, I also bought the food directory for £7.50. It has all the supermarket branded food in it with their syn values.

I cant belive it has taken an hr to catch up from last night.

Well another 100% day (thats not normal for me). Finding it stressfull at home at min and normally I would turn to food but thanks to you lot I've been good. I think it's cause I post my meals on here it's keep me on track.

The kids are driving me up the wall more than normal. I dont think it helped that hubby went offshore the day before my eldest broke up from nursery. They normal play me up for a few days but this is a week on and he's not home for another 27days:eek:. So far today my youngest (22 months old) drew with a pen all over herself and her clothes don't know where she got it from then 2 hrs later she must have climbed on the table got a feltip pen and did the same thing. My other daughter never did anything like that.
