I think the korma from the sauce recipe book is fab....it tastes as good as from a take away....I put more ginger/ garlic and onion in than the recipe says and add chicken on a red day and its lovely....can remember now but think its only 1 syn xx

Is the sauce book worth getting? You all seem to be raving about it! How much is it?

angela6834

Think it was £2.45....it has some good recipe's in...though i have tried some i was not so keen on....i find that with the mags too...some are lovely and some not so....its def worth £2.45 tho.....also made onion bhaji's (sp) from the curry feast and they tasted great!!!

HI little sister RIALOONEY weldone you on your weight loss to :kisses3: .
well just got back from asda and got some packets of sammy couscou 45p and the good for you sausages are on offer 3 for £ 3 , all the supernoodles and packet rice & the pastas on offer to .

Just a quick mention, if anybody's unsure, the Asda Good For You sausages are 1 syn each. Their own label Savoury rices are not all free (unlike Batchelors) and neither are the pasta in sauces , so do check before eating them. Also Sammy's Express couscous is very high in syns, so be sure to get the dried ones (these are free except the ones containing olives) and the Asda meringue nests are 2½syns each.

Hi All

Have been eating quite a bit of fresh rhubarb recently as it seems to be on offer in many shops. From my FO book it is listed as free but when i look a little further ahead in the book to Dried, canned and cooked fruit it says 454g Rhubarb stewed is a HEB? I know no other way from eating Rhubarb except boiling (stewing??) it. Have i done wrong? Have i been eating rhubarb for the following week when i should have been putting it down as a HE?

Am so confused.

Many Thanks
x

I'm sorry, but the book's right.........if fruit is stewed (or otherwise cooked) it has a syn value or is counted as a HEB. You can have 454gms of stewed rhubarb as a HEB and I really can't think of a healthier one .

I wouldn't worry too much - starting to food optimise is a steep learning curve and I doubt if it will have affected your weight loss at this early stage.

Edited to add: Sauce recipe book is £2.95
