Have a lovely day everyone, I'm off to investigate lilian's homity pie recipe (thanks for posting it).'A watched potato will never chit'...0 -
Oooh, that homity pie looks lovely! Thank you lillian. May try that out on hubby sometime soon - so long as it's got cheese in/on he's happy with most things!
The nurse did weigh me but I couldn't work out what my weight was cos it was a dial scale and the lines were too close together! Then she wrote it down in kilos and I only work in 'old money' :rotfl:. Did look to be lower than I weighed in at last week:heartpuls Daughter born January 2012 :heartpuls Son born February 2014 :heartpuls

OH now wants in on Slimming World after dinner last night! However he has a tendency to eat a lot of mars bars/cakes etc - what man sized low syn treats can I suggest to him (things I don't need to prepare that he can buy in bulk and take to work)?My debt free diary | Post Office loan: £2131 1429.38 | Barclaycard: £4429 1988.12 | Paypal Credit £322.71 574.91 | Monzo Flex £169.03 |

Mmmm, that Homity pie does indeed look scrumptious!! :drool:
Will definitely be trying it as the original recipe, but do you think it would also work with cooked pasta instead of the potato?? Sorry, I'm a bit of a tweaker
I'm not sure about man-sized treats, but someone said that Wispas, Twirls & Cadbury Caramels (I think) were 8.5 syns per bar out of a multi-pack. I'm guessing that must be less than a Mars Bar.'A watched potato will never chit'...0 -
I'm sure it would work with pasta but I'd make it as more of a cheesy bake rather than adding the egg.
Thanks for the tips on Wispas etc, I'm sure that would be ok with him xxMy debt free diary | Post Office loan: £2131 1429.38 | Barclaycard: £4429 1988.12 | Paypal Credit £322.71 574.91 | Monzo Flex £169.03 |
