  • Hello Falady and welcome to our group. These pancakes are fab - you don't really believe they are going to taste like pancakes till you eat them - but they really do!
    I made these this morning and they tasted so good, just like the real thing! I would have them even if I wasn't on a diet!!

    Syn Free Pancakes

    1 Egg per pancake
    2-3 Teaspoons sweetener (depending on own taste)
    3-4 Drops of vanilla essence

    First separate the white from the yolk and put into separate bowls, Whisk the egg white until fluffy and add the sweetener, In the other bowl add the vanilla essence then fold the yolk into the egg white
    Heat a frying pan with frylight, add the mix and spread as you would a normal pancake after a few mins flip over (But do be careful they are much more delicate than a regular pancake) And then Hey presto scrummy syn free pancakes

    I served mine with fresh blueberries on the top with a big dollop of sweetened 0% Total and used 2 syns on a tblsp of blueberry syrup drizzled over the top - heaven on a plate:D

    Love

  • Good morning all - this is day 4 of my 100% plan and it is getting a little weird being so good:D The big test will be the weekend, especially with company coming tonight, but I am feeling very confident!

    Yesterday I had:

    Breakfast - egg, bacon and hashbrowns - (free, free and 3 syns)

    snack - couple of yellow plums and an apple

    Lunch - Leftover pasta bake with added baked beans and baby tomatoes (free)

    snack - hifi bar with one of my many daily coffees (heb, hea)

    Dinner - Roast lamb, butternut squash, carrots, peas and mashed potato with raspberries, strawberries and 0% Total for dessert (all free:D) Later on I had a mini skinny cow ice cream sandwich but I couldn't find a syn value for it so will count it as 5 as that is what most of their bars are, so (5 syns)

    I have kept below 10 syns since Monday, I am allowed 20 so will have up to 20 on the weekend if desired, this may help me control the weekend a little better:j

    Love
    Marion

    Oh dear - I had better run and check the seal :rotfl::rotfl:- nope it is ok! I have now taken all the cheese out and put it in the back porch where it will stay chilled. Will see if that helps although I have sniffed them all and they don't smell like dead wildlife:o
    Have you tried the pipes that drain the water down the back of the fridge and then cleaning the little container in the back that holds the water till it evaporates .. sometimes that can get a bit whiffy.... I am still trying to de-pong the fridge that my ex-DH left in our old house when he left it 2 years ago, it was still full of food and milk :rotfl:

    Thats right, mine stunk at the end of the winter last year so i cleaned them out, i didnt even know they were there till someone mentioned it like you have. My kitchen is really cold in the winter but red hot in the summer so it evaporates no problem du7ring the summer but stagnates in winter, ill think ill go check it again, thanks for reminding me.

    Sorry for this everyone but I am struggling to find the time to keep up the spreadsheet. If anyone is willing to take it over then I would be very grateful.

    I seem to be having less and less time to post and read on the forums so I have had to make this decision.

    Sorry for letting you all down.:o
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
