Thanks both! I went back through the thread and found the almond/linseed microwave bread, once I poke the other rolls down (hate waste, 3 left) will try that.

Dinner tonight harissa lamb meatballs with feta and salad.

I use the recipes from the Fast 800 and they seem to work well. A friend lines her muffin tins with bacon first which is a nice idea if you're not calorie counting (and can get it thinly sliced)

I don't think I have that book @greenbee but I have so many, I might do.

Instead of bacon, we use prosciutto (Parma ham) for cooking, which is thin and crisps up well. If you use the packs with the gold crown of authenticity  on them, no additives, just pork legs and salt. Cheapest places for prosciutto are usually Lidl and ASDA. 

Totally lazy supper tonight. Swedish meatballs made in Sweden, from Iceland Foods 4.50 for 900g bag, which does two meals for adults. 9g carbs per 100g because they contain potato, but gluten free and no nasties. Öresundschark AB Swedish Meatballs 900g | Pork & Gammon | Iceland Foods With the meatballs, Slimming World tikka masala sauce.
