    Morning all! I've had a cold for a week now and its driving me insane! It's really affecting my sleep and coupled with the fact I've been working the weekend (today is day 8 of 12 getting up at 6am!) I'm shattered!

    OH's parents are coming round for tea tonight. I've already prepped the main course and I also did a pudding but it went totally wrong so there's a change of plan....which involves me having to visit Mr M at lunch!! I'm going to make them all banoffee pies and for me I'm going to have banana and some quark with a bit of the toffee stuff mixed in so should only be a couple of syns.
    I'm doing EE today:

    Brekkie - porridge (HEA&B) and banana
    Snack - nectarine and plum
    Lunch - salad, pork, stuffing (1.5), roast spuds, salad cream (2), jelly (0.5), yogurt, mixed berries.
    Tea - rosemary chicken, mash, veg, banoffee 'mush' lol!!!

    Good job I've lost some pounds as car has gone for it's mot and needs new brake pads and discs :(

    Off swimming in a couple of hours too, not been in years.
    One day I will be debt free and fat free!:grinheart

    Robbed from Minimins forum

    Fruit Roulade (1/2 syn for the whole lot)

    1 TUB QUARK
    4 EGGS
    1 TSP BAKING POWDER
    4 TBSP SWEETNER (I ADDED LOT MORE LOL)
    VANILLA ESSENCE (OR ANY)
    FRESH FRUIT

    SEPERATE THE EGGS

    ADD THE YOLK, HALF THE QUARK,
    BAKING POWDER, SWEETNER AND ESSENCE INTO A BOWL, WHISK TOGETHER AND SET ASIDE.

    WHISK EGG WHITE TILL STIFF. WHISK HALF INTO THE MIXTURE THEN FOLD IN OTHER HALF.

    USING A SWISS ROLL TIN SPRAY WITH FRY LIGHT ( I PUT GREASPROOF PAPER IN FIRST THE SPRAY SO DOESNT STICK) POUR THE MIXTURE IN AND BAKE AT
    180 FOR 15 - 20 MINUTES. LEAVE TO COOL

    IN A DISH ADD REMAINING QUARK ,SWEETNER, AND ESSENCE AND MIX TOGETHER.

    REMOVE THE CAKE FROM TIN WHEN COOL SPREAD THE QUARK EVENLY, ADD FINELY CHOPPED FRUIT (STRAWBERRY AND BANANA MY FAVE). ROLL THE CAKE FROM ONE END. SLICE TO SERVE.

    THE WHOLE CAKE IS ONLY HALF A SYN AND THATS THE BAKING POWDER. CAN ALSO ADD CHOC OPTIONS SACHET FOR FLAVOURING. WHEN THE CAKE COMES OUT OF THE OVEN IT WILL HAVE RISEN LOADS BUT WILL GO VERY FLAT WHEN COOL LOL I THOUGHT IT HAD GONE WRONG FIRST TIME I MADE IT BUT WAS LOVELY.

    Well for what syns are in it, I dont think Id bother to be honest....It needs the baking powder as its got no flour in it as a normal cake has to make it 'airy& fluffycakey'

    Its really really nice!! and if you ate half of it on your own - your only having 1/4 of a syn of loveliness :D ..... how good is that !!


    I also sometimes get a tub of 0% fat Greek yog & a pack of WHITE choc options 2 syn .... mix it up and it tastes like cream ;) serve a quarter of a tub of this with your half of the cake for an extra treat and youve stil only had 3/4 of a syn :T :p nomnomnom
