  • Yup, just dragged my way to SWonline and egg noodles are free on EE, I didn't check green days but would assume so. They'd be weighed out on red I expect.
    :jThat's 2 stone 9 lbs gone forever:j

    thank you Slimming World!

    This milk isnt goin to curdle is it? And is thai green paste free? used to make it the "normal" way but if this works it will be a yummy addition to my meal plans!!
    And yes I got it on ebay, ordered it yesterday afternoon & it arrived this morning!! 2 little bottle, around £3, will this be free? Im tired & confused so can't think!
    Chocolate essense...oh my!! That sounds like it could be yummy!!

    I use Bart's green thai paste - it's a good quality paste (i am fussy about these things) and it's only about 1 syn per tsp i think, and it's v spicy so you dont need much. Some of the supermarket own ones are too thick and quite weak so you need tbsps full to get the right heat!
    hello all - mmm just had a lovely dish of a whole pack of steamed asparagus with some quark/blue cheese over the top and a sprinkling of butter buds :). Just thought I'd get the superfree stuff out of the way before the chicken is cooked in the halogen oven.

    BettyB and H007: a page or so back you both list your daily food and say you are doing EE but I can see hardly any superfree in there .... have you missed it off the list or (worse) have you missed it altogether:eek: 'course, it may be me that's missed it but I've read it thru twice.

    I do the same as H007, in that I usually add my superfree as i go - for example I might write on here 'spag bol' but as i'm cooking it i'll throw in carrots, mushrooms, tomato and onion. I will try to be more specific as it's good to know someone is keeping an eye on it for me and now i am worried that i'm not having enough!

    on that topic, are lentils superfree?? i have been using them a lot in my soups. But when i do make soup i make sure I use more veg, like onion, carrot, peppers or leek, than potato or lentils, just to ensure it's veggy enough.


    Tomorrow's plan is Green:
    56g cereal and skim milk (1/2 HEA,other 1/2 in tea, and will have 2 ryvita to complete both HEB)
    2 clementines and a banana
    leek and potato soup (free)
    pasta with tom sauce - toms, onion, red pepper, carrot and mushrooms - with HEA cheese on top and some green beans on the side
    then i'm off out for the night, so will be drinking vodka and diet coke all night i expect.

    so just to analyse:
    2 HEB - cereal + ryvita (two portions of each)
    2 HEA- milk (1) and cheese (2)

    Superfree - fruit with breakfast, veg in soup (apart from potatoes) and veg in pasta sauce and green beans...is that enough??

    i think it says in my book that 'straight to wok' style noodles are synned but dried egg noodles (boiled) are free

    Morning all, went slightly over syns last night, but Im ok with that, back on it today.
    Need to go food shopping yet again today ( costing me a bomb!) for more veg, Im hoping I can cobble together some sort of meal plan for the week buying the minimum amount of food, I spent 130 in asda last wek, nothing left! ( well there is but more needed) Def need more FDF creme fraiche as well toda and if we go Mr m then will get some of the Hi fis as they are on offer.

    Today I think will be a green one as I want pizza for tea :)

    Breakfast:banana, pineapple summer fruits & yog
    Lunch- curried chickpea soup that im about to make ( chickpeas,onions,stock)http://uktv.co.uk/food/recipe/aid/607607 will prob have some quorn poppins as well for 1.5 syns
    Dinner - veggie pizza including LF mozzerella, passata, chilli, mushrooms onion spinach peppers and a salad ( HEA 1 for the cheese HEB x2 for the base)

    Other HEA will be milk for teas as ever. Syns will be party rings I think if I can find them really fancy a biscuit today :)

    Its my birthday tomorrow so I am having the day off :) and am going here http://www.pingpongdimsum.com/

    until then I will try and be good :D
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Morning all

    Last night was really good, :D had a nice evening with the girls and it was nice to stay in and cook rather than go out! I did have a 2nd glass of wine so I went approx 6 syns over what I had allocated but I'll just pull those back today. I also made my friend take the desert home with her so I would not be tempted! :rotfl:

    I'll post my meal plan later tonight.

    Would someone be ever so kind and check the syns of Tesco's own frozen vegetarian mince? I normally use Quorn mince cos that's free, but it can be pricey and my friend said that the tesco one was nicer and cheaper!!

    Cheers

    Hi Betty! I feel like a policeman now :rotfl:no, I give in, you are having your superfree! Bad news is, lentils are not superfree. They are simply free on EE and green.

    I've just had a most yummy breakfast of defrosted raspberries, melon and a Shape Zero mango yog, I could have eaten it all over again! Funny how some tastes just seem to go together (it looked like a pile of pus in the bowl, mind :eek: )
    :jThat's 2 stone 9 lbs gone forever:j

    thank you Slimming World!
