Sorry can't help you zip but the scallop recipe looks yummy!:drool: Thanks for the curry recipe, too.

Definitely worth a go if you like your curries! I make the paste the day before and prep the chopped chilli, onion, garlic, ginger etc so the day i make it, it's less of an undertaking

These threads from OS may help credit crunch:)

Couscous

large flat mushrooms

pasta salad

My boyfriends best friend is home tonight and im heading out. Tempted to have a couple of vodkas - but it would literally be a couple. Can't decide if my conscience will let me though after last night:( Part of me thinks no syns between now and weigh in to try minimise the damage !!!!

Afternoon Everyone

Another lovely Day here, Making the most of the Sunshine with a Red Day & a BBQ (and MrD doing all the cooking;):p)
Got 2 packs of lovely sirloin steaks for £10 in MrA - 3 steaks in each pack, which I thought was a pretty good bargain :j stocked up on a few more packs of their frozen hot & spicy chicken breasts too....lovely, syn free and only £2 for a pack of 4, I'm quite addicted to these & don't know what I'l do when they stop doing them at the end of the BBQ season :eek::rotfl:

Anyway Hope everyone is having a nice weekend, Keep on being good ladies!! :A x x

I don't think so. From the website, they don't appear as HEBs but 1 syn per cracker (plain or herb).

Morning Folks

Well.....Someone has nicked the sunshine round here I was all geared up for another day of nothingness sat on my aris smothered in suntan lotion.......and its cloudy as hell

I could of course make busy with the ironing board:think:...........errrrrr no - I think not :rotfl::rotfl:I shall make busy with a magazine I think (well sunday IS a day of rest is is not )


Today is a RED day

B Oatso simple (golden syrup flavour) HEB + 0.5 syn 1/2 HEA
2 yellow plums

L ham & galia melon slices onken yog

T sirloin steak, HEB spud done as wedges, salad, melon for pud


Has anyone tried the new 'shape delights yoghurt' the apple crumble & rhubarb crumble ones? they are 1/2 syn each .....but seriously worth the tiny syns, they are really sweet and 'puddingey';) and satisfy my sweet tooth craving after a meal in the evening. The apple one has chunks of crunchy apple in it too so its really yummy:T I recommend trying them. they are £1 in Morrisons at the mo or 2 for £2 in Asda.

Ooooh and the other delight yog ones have got syns in now they have rebranded (don't know if anyone knew) I think most of them now have 1/2 syn except cherry & strawb...which makes the crumble ones even more worth the 1/2 syn :T

Sun very doubtful here too, but it didn't really appear yesterday until about 4 o'clock. Today's food is a bit strange as we're off to cinema teatime. I'm not used to cooking for Sunday lunchtime. Plan so far:

B: HEB porage with HEA milk plus teas, banana, NAS squash
L: roast chicken, roast potatoes and parsnips, carrots, cauliflower and cabbage, gravy
(depends how hungry I feel) bowl of berries, Total and maybe pick at some cold chicken
Syns: wine and gravy

A bit of culcha: Mozart's Don Giovanni from Glyndebourne.

Strange, I was thinking that my mother, and grandmother before her ALWAYS did Sunday lunch (or dinner as it was then) at lunchtime. Many's the time they sat in church worrying whether they'd remembered to turn the oven on. And going to the pictures on a Sunday would have been unthinkable. How times have changed.;)

I can remember we used to spend most of the school hols up at our grans & ALWAYS coming home from church straight to my Aunties for sunday Lunch at exactly the same time and we always had to have the Yorkie & gravy first as a starter, then the rest of the meal after (I think thats a Yorkshire thing maybe.....fill up on the cheap bit so you dont eat as much meat??:rotfl:)

Your right....times have certainly changed
