I must say, for chips and any other 'dry' roasting food I couldn't do without a Quickachips.

Well worth the price, great piece of kit.

I've seen those in the £ shop and other places. Excuse my ignorance but do you sit that on a tray and then spray the chips, roasties or whatever?

Just had a delicious lunch. Iceland Peppered Smoked Salmon fillets at £3 for 300g. They're totally free (I checked). It's like smoked salmon but hot and chunky (2x150g fillets). I think ordinary salmon can be a bit bland unless you marinate it, this was really tasty with a few stir-fried veg.

Being low on sodium can also cause dizziness. If you're on healthy eating plans it can be a risk - add some salt to your meals for a couple of days and see if it helps.

No you just pop it into the oven as it is, having sprayed the chips or roasties previously. I par-boil my chips so I spray them with Fry-light whilst they are in the saucepan, then shake them around, and spray again. Empty onto the Quickachips and oven it. It goes in the dishwasher and is easy to store as it folds up.

So what's the cooking time using this then? I hate waiting so long for my chips :rotfl:

Jill36 - well done on the weight loss :j

After I par-boil they are usually in for about 20 minutes - but it cooks much more evenly and all sides go crisp.

Hi everyone, thanks to the person who told me where to post , I posted on an old thread earlier

How do I keep finding this thread, or do I have to search for it everytime? I am new to this site so I'm a bit lost...

I am wanting to join up with slimming world online, is anyone else on here just an online member, or is everyone joined up with classes? I just wondered if online is any good? I have never done slimming world before so I have absolutely no idea on how it works, I have read the info on the site and I am so confused with the red/green days extra easy and food optimising. Do you combine all ways, or have certain days doing certain diets, I am so baffled

Any help is appreciated, and I look forward to sitting and reading more on the thread and getting to know everyone xxx

Hi, welcome to the madhouse:)

You can bookmark this site so you can find us again.

I was an online member and now i'm just pootling along with these guys. Some of us go to classes, some are online members and some just use this thread.

A little confusing to start with but you'll get the hang of it in no time.

You can follow whatever plan suits you best, you can mix and match your days of the week or just stick to one.

There is no such thing as a stupid question, we're all here to help:A
