Well I’m pleased to report that despite my best efforts at sabotage I actually lost 4.5lb this week :T:j:beer:

And the consultant gave out a recipe for 12 speed soup which I’m guessing the is same as dyno rod soup?

Here's to another week of slimming world...and due to the loss I feel spurred on to stick to the plan 100%

Yay well done you - great loss :j

Do think this shows why it is important to go to class, if you hadn't of gone you could easily have gone wrong next week. Now you have a great loss and the determination to keep to plan. I always go to class even when I think I have put on, sometimes you get a pleasant surprise and if you have put on it makes you determined to lose it for the next week.

Does anybody have a recipe for mayonnaise? I generally do extra easy, but it doesn't have to be free, just not ridiculously high.

Hi Ruby

I was looking at your meals you had yesterday and wandered why you felt you should syn the beef and potatoes.

You say this was an EE day, meat and potatoes are free on this plan.

Or am I missing something?

I thought exactly the same. If it's lean beef and potatoes cooked with no fat/frylight then it's free on EE. I'd be glad of confirmation as I've been enjoying my roast dinners and only synning the gravy.

Has anyone tried the Quorn chicken style pieces (frozen) ?

Im a complete Quorn virgin....but I saw this in Asda on offer at £1 at the weekend so thought I'd try it, not been brave enough yet though

It says you can do curries & stir frys with it though.

Have been using these for years before EE was invented to have curries on a green day (and the mince to make chilli on a green day too).

They are ok when they're in something like that - there's not enough flavour for them to absorb in a stir-fry so they're an acquired taste, but in a curry my FIL & some friends couldn't tell that it wasn't chicken - same texture once cooked. All quorn needs lots of liquid with it.


Speaking of which - looking in my new SW book when I started 2 weeks ago - eggs & quorn aren't superfree :eek: Really should read my book even though it's my 9th year...... :wall:

i use quorn quite alot and just use it as i would meat, though i tend to use the chiller pieces so am not sure how long the frozen bits would take to cook.

just chuck it into your curry sauce, pasta bake or stirfry

also on alot of the quorn products there is still an offer for a free quorn cookbook which is pretty decent. you just pay pp

edit - skint catt is right dont use it dry in stirfry, but i find it fine in soy sauce etc

Thanks Skint_Catt & h007

Good job you warned me about dry frying it, my 1st attempt was going to be a few pieces to have with some cous cous (now that would have been bland huh??

I will give it a go in a curry I think probably tomorrow....I'll let you know how it turns out;) x x

I did the sweet chilli chicken from one of the SW magazines last year for a taster day at Group. I made some using quorn and some using chicken pieces - most people couldn't tell the difference!

At Asda chilled Cumberland sausages and bangers are less than half price (£1.00)

I eat them hot and cold.

Have put them in DH lunchbox cold today with a bit of tom sauce. He will think I have forgotten to put in his usual wm pitta bread.
