    Morning fellow SW peeps.

    A loss of 2 1/2 lbs for me this week :D

    Wasnt overly chuffed till I went and got the weights off the kitchen scales. 2 1/2 lbs is quite heavy :o
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Hi Marion,
    could you post the recipe for the meatloaf please,(or is it already on here) i used to love meatloaf when i was younger but havnt had it for years now and im sure my kids would like it.
    thank you
    Gill

    No problem - I make it quite often as we all like it too!

    Meat Loaf
    Syn Free on original

    454g lean mince beef
    Handful button mushrooms cut into quarters
    8-10 rashers extra lean bacon
    ½ - 1 tsp mixed Italian herbs
    1-2 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 small onion finely chopped
    1 level tbsp tomato puree (½ syn per level tbsp).
    1 large egg, beaten
    Salt & pepper to taste
    Pre heat oven to 200oC/Gas 6

    Dry fry mince, onion, garlic & mushrooms until mince is brown & the onions & mushrooms are soft – drain off any excess liquid.
    Combine all ingredients EXCEPT THE EGG together & mix well, then gradually but thoroughly stir the egg into the meat mixture.
    Spray a loaf tin with fry light and line with the bacon, then firmly press the mince mixture into the lined tin.
    Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
    Serve with vegetables or salad, or save some to have cold for lunch the next day.

    Hi marion (again:rotfl: )
    how do you make your oatmeal please? i know you said earlier in the thread but i cant find it:rolleyes: .
    thanks chuck
    Gill

    The oatmeal this is dead easy Gill, I just measure out the 28g of oatmeal and put it into a plastic container with a muller light yogurt mixed into it. Put the lid on and leave in the fridge overnight then eat! No need to cook. In the morning you can add fresh fruit to it if you like. ie - if using strawberry yogurt add strawberries etc. It is surprising filling!

    Good Morning Everyone, just a flying visit as am about to take Charlie out and then DD2 to the station and then hopefully Aldi to buy a new laptop. Finally decided to get one, but not sure if they will have any left once I get there.

    Breakfast - bacon and eggs and hash browns (forgot to put the hashbrowns back in the freezer yesterday so they had to be cooked:o, I don't normally have the same breakfast twice in a row)

    Lunch/Dinner - Roast chicken, mashed potatoes, brocolli and sweetheart cabbage with carrots.
    Supper - Left over chicken in a wm roll with salad and a yogurt.

    Thats all folks
