Was that the Hot 'n Spicy Coleslaw that uses natural yogurt? I wasn't keen on that either.

I find coleslaw is very much a personal taste. Some don't like too much cabbage, or onion, or prefer chunky cut to shredded etc.

How I made mine today, using white cabbage, carrots and onion in whatever ratio you like best. I used red onion instead of spring onion:

Blanche the chopped white cabbage with boiling water, so it hasn't got the raw taste and to soften it a bit. Cool quickly with cold water in colander. Add grated carrot. mix a bit of salt in and mix all together. Leave for 15 mins to dry. Add chopped onion.

Then I mixed all together with Hellmann's Lighter Than Light Mayonnaise which is 0.5 syn per level tablespoon.

As I'm having this tonight with chicken tikka, I put a little bit of cajun seasoning in to give it a little kick. I think some people put mustard powder in.

I've tasted it and like it, but others may not agree

cant remember banjo, am sure it was just an ordinary one that used creme fresh, mustard etc but am not keen in mustard, full lot went in bin, al give yours a Bash tomorrow as I prefer mayo based ones, I use aldi lighter than light which is the same syns, best get into shower and get myself glammed up, hubby on the way home and table booked for 7.30, bye all enjoy your evening x

Jezebel if you like soups there is one that can be made in literally minutes that i am just about to tuck into myself.
1 tin toms
1 tin of carrots
1 tin of beans
1 stock cube
1 large or a few smaller pickled onions.
I have also thrown in a tbsp of basil

Bung in a pan to warm through, blitz return to pan to ensure its hot or like i have done bunged into a systema soup mug and nuked for 2 mins. Quickest soup ever and pretty cheap too.

Am going to have a go at this in the week I really don't get the onion thing though! But I'll try anthing once.....I assume the tin of beans means baked beans??

Jezebel1 One of favourite red day / EE meals for ease and quickness has to be jacket potato (cooked in micro and then finished in oven for 15 mins) served with plenty of vegetables (I normally go carrots, cauliflower and broccoli) then finshed with a tin of stewing steak, the sainsburys extra lean one is free (as is a tesco's one I think)

hi thanks sounds great didnt know about the tinned steak that will help me a lot will deff go and get some well send my other half till i can go out and easy enough to put a jacket in lol prob easier than making a sandwich as i have been doing

Evening, hope everyone is well.

Does anyone know how many syns are in a 54g Snickers More Caramel bar?

I can only find the normal ones online that are bigger bars. It has 281 calories in so I'm thinking it's going to be alot.

I had an accident whilst shopping in Tesco earlier.

Not had a fantastic couple of days...had a glass of wine last night which turned into 2 oh dear

Today started ok with normal weetabix and banana breakfast but then I've been busy and only had 1 more banana all day till hubby cooked kids a pizza for their tea...I shamefully stole a slice from my daughter (she never eats it all) then I ate 3 cocktail sausages from the fridge...

I've tried to put it back an an even footing by having a red day meal of a mixed grill; lamb and pork chops, a small bit of steak, gammon, egg, 2 WW sausages (1 syn) mushrooms, grilled tomatoes and a few oven chips (6 syns) sadly though I fear my plan of washing it all down with a glass or two of Tia Maria and diet coke may mean I'll go over my syns for the day :undecided
