Just wondered if anyone had any top tips for how to vary dyno soup? I'm meal planning at the mo, and much though I love it I thought I'd spice things up by varying it a bit. I'm thinking of adding a half tonne of sweetcorn to the next batch (;)) but apart from that?

And the other thing is any unusual packed lunch suggestions?

I started making a lovely butternut squash soup....then chucked in loads of Dyno rod ingredients Its now called my seriously confused soup.....tastes lovely though

Sweetcorn would be good in it.....But be warned of the affects of Dyno Rod & Sweetcorn together :eek: Im saying no more :rotfl::rotfl:

Hi all

Hope everyone ok

Well the weekends here and i have house guests tonight so im sensing alcohol and calorie abuse lol

I am doing the stuffed pork wrapped in bacon from the new christmas book so main meal should be fine but my sis in law is bringing a very naughty pudding and i have a bottle of bacardi to go with

I got the new xmas book yesterday, can't say I was overly impressed tbh!

Anyway, I have been doing mostly ok...have gone over syns on a couple of occasions but not in a big way. I have stifado in the slow cooker...it smells really nice xx

I am going to get some more pork on Monday for the chinese pork dish again....I will give it the kids this time too, I am pretty sure they will eat it.

Well done slscarborough :j

The stuffed pork is so far the only thing ive done out of the christmas book but its really nice so doing it again hehe

There is another brand new book out which has got loads of good ideas in 100 extra easy days, looking forward to doing some meals out of that

Hellllloooo All

Its a lot brighter (between the downpours) here today, but forecast to get bad again later
- typical seeing as Ive just been reminded that were out tonight for MILs Birthday meal at a resteraunt/pub situated just about as remote in the wilderness as you can get :eek: Even the sheep wear an extra coat its that wild up there lol :rotfl:

So Im having to do a flexi day today as weve been to this place before(every time its her Birthday ) and I know that nothing on their menu is too SW friendly (tho very very nice ) I could I suppose If I asked make my meal more friendly but its more hassle than its worth when all OH's family is there IYKWIM
so I'l just have a main course....and maybe share some of OH's pud,I cant drink with my meds (grumble grumble :mad:) so i'l only have to worry about the synful tipsy chicken nomnomnom (brandy & cream sauce) and it comes with new spuds & veggies..... and any pud that enters my tum maybe if I say 45 syns?? and cut back for the next couple of days along with superspeeding it up I wont do too much damage?

Today so far Ive had a neutral day of just fruit and Im going to have my A&B of ryvita&mad cow with the last of my confused soup in a bit just to keep the hunger at bay before the meal.

Sound like a plan??

A flexi day now and then doesnt hurt. You still have to have a life!!

I will be having flexi day on 3rd Dec when the office are going for an indian. No idea how many syns that will need but I am sure its a lot.

How do you make syn free quiche? x

My version is to put veg in the bottom of a tin (sweetcorn, peppers, sometimes tinned asparagus, tomatoes etc), make up a pack of tomato and herb pasta and sauce, mix that with 3 eggs and 150g cottage cheese and pour it over the veg, then bung it in the oven. I have it for lunch pretty much every day, it's lovely!
