SC onions soup @maman as requested:

https://cooktopcove.com/2017/09/07/slow-cooker-french-onion-soup-recipe/?src=article_link&eid=60311_a&pid=57667&et=fbad&k=lgrhaen017

I use a 3.5l oval SC and it fitted in fine - wasn't really sure what size a 6 qt SC was!

I used butter Frylight to spray the pot and sweetener instead of sugar.  I did need to stir it after about 4 hours as the onions were beginning to stick to the pot but that's probably because of using Frylight rather than butter!

Didn't have any sherry so used sherry vinegar and a bit extra sweetener - didn't want to make it too sweet though with onions being quite sweet anyway.

Evening all, welcome newbies and BIG thank you to Beanie for the shiny new thread 🥰

Not talking about food, just rubbish 🥺

Had another tat 😲, was very expensive as we lost part of the exhaust going there! Was still in the road when we came back 🥴.
Tat is a bit bigger than expected, was supposed to be a subtle heart but!!!

What does the jigsaw piece mean if it has a meaning?

Thanks again for the welcome.

@Bubbs no I'm not in Northampton but that sounds a great deal. I have filled a form in last night which will hopefully help. I tried to call but just seemed to go into a blackhole. I can't see me hearing back for Monday - but if there is the potential to save that much money I may hang on a little longer before signing up.

I'd hang on @savingholmes. It's a good saving if you can get a NHS referral. You said that the scales were looking good already and we'll help you all we can with any questions or syn values you need while you're waiting. 😊

Thanks for the French onion soup recipe @joedenise, especially as it's in the SC. Using the sherry vinegar would make it syn free. 👍 How many portions do you think it makes? I don't have sherry but I have port which is similar. 🤔

I didn't get it as never knew about it then, but my frend at group was telling me last week, fab bloomin deal! Apparently her sister who is not that overweight as she comes as well got it, she said was so easy ring up they ask a few questions , she then got a referral code thing

The recipe says it's 6 portions but I'm not sure yet as won't be portioning it up until tomorrow once it's cold.  I've ladled it out into jugs to put in the fridge and there is 1.7l so I think that's a good 6 portions but really depends on how much you have each time.   Will let you know tomorrow once I've bagged it up!

Maybe it's a priority in England because Boris is so much fatter than Nicola! 🤣

My consultant was telling us last month that there were lots of places left in one of our postcodes desperate for people to take them up. 🤔

Beanie do you still go group?
