I use passata as a tomato based sauce.

I fry peppers,onions mushrooms etc, with chilli cumin paprika ( sorry, just to taste..I dont have measurements)

then add the passata let it all cook down. then I add chicken to lightly cook in the sauce, or pour the sauce over chicken, or spicy beef meatballs. Have a fresh chopped salad on the side.

so glad i came on here, you guys are full of support and can feel the love!! loving the tank dizzy, have sharpened pencils ready for the lines in the future!! hubby's up for loosing weight too, was panicking that i would have to cook different for him and he also wants to do the gym, said it would be nice to do something together!! ummm looking forward to the future. no more cheese and bacon slices tho hubby!!

Sooooo much love here

Massive welcome!! this is the place to be!!

Youll also get to hear of the bargains as well which is always nice!

The gym is brilliant, I love it, but cant afford it at the mo!



If you mean cheese and bacon pasties, yes they are v high syn.

But a cheese and bacon toasted sandwich is certainly allowed :drool:

Bacon is a SW staple here at PowerTowers.

toting up the cost of gym and sw, not cheap but can just about do it, thinking about it it's more of a case of i have to. got probs with my legs so although i'm not heavy (as such) i need to my weight to be as low as i can be but healthy. i'm stunned how it has just creeped up over the years.
bargin shopping is my favourite (i wait for sales in primarkie love clothes for a £1.00). i love the chanllage of seeing how far you can make meals and food shopping stretch.
need my books and then i can start on the meal plans and hopefully incorperate them into family meals. we will see, son still goes green at the thought of a veg and pure horror as i put them on his plate each day. one day they will go in his stomach. thank god the other 3 are easier to feed!

now for lunch = baked beans and a poached egg i think
dinner = vegy stir fry
snacks = v light laughing cow, apple

Afternoon all u big losers Hope everyone is well and enjoyed the long weekend!

Quick question, as always my days/meals are planned till shopping day, and had EE down for today, but sitting thinking about it now, Im wondering if I should change it to a red day, syn a few bits and get extra HE's, I just don't know, advice needed pretty please

Brek: Fruit & Strawb Muller
Lunch: 1/2 chicken breast & Salad, punnet of cherries, few satsumas
Tea: Shepards pie with Cauli mashed on top, sweetcorn & mushy peas

Its only the sweetcorn and mushys that are letting me down for a red, but feel I am lacking potato/rice/pasta for an EE day hmmmmmm
