My Mood: Rep Power: 30 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Diet: SW | CHOCOLATE,, STRAWBERRY AND ORANGE PAVLOVAS Serves 4 Sins per serving: 5.5 on Green and Original 25 Preparation and cooking: approx 20 minutes Ingredients; 340g/12oz small strawberries 4 tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice 1-2 tsp granulated artificial sweetener 200g pot very low fat natural fromage frais 1 x 11g sachet Chocolate & Orange Options 1 level tsp cocoa powder 4 ready made meringue nests Orange zest to decorate Method; 1. Wash the strawberries and pat dry. Hull all but two of them. Slice the remaining strawberries and place half in a blender or food processor with the orange juice. Blend until smooth, then sweeten the puree with enough sweetener to taste. Cover and chill the puree and the whole and sliced strawberries until required. 2. Place the fromage frais in a small bowl and sieve in the Options and cocoa powder. Mix until well combined. Cover and chill until required. 3. Just before serving, spoon the chocolate fromage frais on to each meringue nest and pile the reserved sliced strawberries on top. Place on individual serving plates, and decorate each with half a strawberry and orange zest. Drizzle the strawberry puree on to the plate and serve. Cook's Note You can prepare these desserts in advance up to the end of Step 2, but always assemble them just before serving, as the fromage frais will dissolve the meringue. |

My Mood: Rep Power: 30 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Diet: SW | CORNMEAL CHOCOLATE MUFFINS Works out to about 0.6 of a sin each if you use the large muffin tins so call it Or try gently warming a pot of vanilla yoghurt and eat them as a hot pudding.a half sin each I guess. (_ a sin each on a Green day) The cornmeal used is Dunn's River Coarse ground. Which is exactly what polenta is. Ingredients; 1 _ cups / 8 ounces Coarse Cornmeal/Polenta meal free on a green day only) 1 large Egg beaten 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 2 _ pots of Mullerlight Toffee Yoghurt 7 – 10 tablespoons candarel/granulated sweetener 1 –2 tsp vanilla extract 3 sachets Caramel Options or Caramel/Dairy Fudge Hi Lites (6 sins) _ oz sultanas chopped (2 sins) optional Method; 29 Mix everything together well by beating with a balloon whisk for about 5 minutes. You will see the bicarb starting to react as tiny airholes appear. Spoon batter into a well oiled muffin pan ( I used fry light and a 12 deep cup muffin tin, filling 3/4 full. Bake at Gas 5/400 for 25 minutes or until risen. Don’t bake them in paper cases as they stick like crazy. You could mix in any fruit with these but remember to count as sins. OR Line a 6 x 9 x 1 inch swiss roll tin with non stick baking parchment. Pour in the mixture and cook for about 40 minutes at the same oven temp as above until the middle is well and truly set. Turn out onto a cutting board and leave to cool. Cut in half widthways. OR Bake in an 8 inch loose bottom cake tin and serve as a cake. OR use the 4 tin yorkshire pudding tins. They make great little mock 'victoria sponges'. OR Mix one pot of Quark cheese (free) with 1 tsp vanilla essence and 1 tbs Candarel. Beat well. Spread over one half of the cooled cake. Spread the other half with a tablespoon of warmed low sugar jam ( roughly 3 sins) and sandwich together. Heaven! It's great to have a cake on a green day that works out to only 6 sins! (without the sultanas.) I used choc n orange options last time and added cinnamon and mixed spice. YUM! Brilliant dipped into a pot of toffee yoghurt. |

My Mood: Rep Power: 30 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Diet: SW | COUS COUS CAKE 4.5 Sins for the lot on Green instead of one of the eggs and maybe some chopped dried apricots or fresh??Ingredients/Method; 4oz cous cous to that add quarter pint of boiling water and let it stand for about 5 mins to absorb water. Dont leave too long at this stage as I think this is what makes it go rubbery. Add 2 eggs and 2 tbsp lemon curd and rind and juice of a lemon. beat all that together, cook for 20mins don't leave too long in the oven either or you can cook in the microwave for about 5 mins. When cool mix 4 oz quark with 1 tablespoon of lemon curd and a sweetener if you need it and spread on top. Variation; I have also wondered about making it with almond flavouring in the cake and topping with low sugar jam and quark. (like bakewell tart) or adding dried mixed spice and a little dried fruit, like a hot x bun, or coffee and a toffee or vanilla mullerlight. or banana mashed in |
