Thought it would be better here seeing as though the slimming world Ladies seem to congregate on this board!
I will start us off, I dont have any pictures right now, but will take some as and when I make the food
Most of my meals are extra easy or Green (I tend to substitute a lot of meat for quorn because I love potatos too much), but you can adjust how much you have for Red or Green
For my chips, wedges and roasties instead of parboiling/steaming I use a tupperware box, with a lid that we've stabbed some holes in, it steams your potatos just enough to help them on their way before you put them in the oven (you could buy a microwave steamer, but this was way cheaper)

Sunday Slimming Dinner
Total Syns = NIL on EE, Green and Red (HEX = tatties)(Without Gravy)
Definately better as a Green or EE meal then you can have as many different types of veggies and potatoes as you like Plus everything on the menu is free so you can have some gravy for very few syns!Total Syns = NIL on EE, Green and Red (HEX = tatties)(Without Gravy)
- Quorn Bangers (as many as you like, they are free on every plan)
- Steamed or Boiled Potatoes (As many as you like on Green or EE, HX on Red)
- Fry Light Roasties (Preheat your oven to superdooper hot, Microwave some of your tatties for about 5 mins before you start cooking everything, pop in oven on a tray sprayed with fry light, turn and spray every 10 mins, remove when crispy and tasty)
- As many veggies as you can stuff in! (Remember peas and beans are restricted on Red days though)
- Gravy - Bisto Best Onion is lush with this, only 1/2 a syn per dried teaspoon. Alternatively Bovril chicken is free, so if you want to save up your syns for a treat you could have that
*Picture coming soon*
Fish, Chips and Mushy Peas
Syns = NIL on EE or Green (HX = Cod)
Syns = NIL on EE or Green (HX = Cod)
- Any white fish you like (Well any fish within reason, but I think Cod is the best) - Grill it lightly until it is piping hot all the way through
- Slimming World Chips (same method as Fry light Roasties)
- Mushy Peas (or tinned if you prefer, you could even have beans!)
- Serve with some Ketchup for 1 syn per tablespoon, or if you're like my OH brown sauce for the same value! (If you have the reduced sugar and salt versions they are 1/2 syn per level tablespoon! *SYN BARGIN*)
*Picture coming soon*
Quick Simple Lunches
- EE & Green - Jacket potato with piles of your favourite fillings - beans, extra low fat cottage cheese, salad, cheese (as your HEX), tuna (with extra light mayo for 1/2 syn per level table spoon if you like), or there are many others to be had!
- EE, Red or Green - Omlette with mushrooms, onion, peppers, tomatos, ham, quorn bangers, baked beans, extra low fat cottage cheese or indeed anything you like with omlettes!
- EE, Red or Green - again it depends what you like with your salads, my personal favourites include ham, tuna, hard boiled eggs and extra low fat cottage cheese!
