Wow that's great. Thanks Bumpy

Great Bumpyo, would you mind sticking that in the old favourites and new ideas sticky please we can keep going back to it then its really good :-)

Ive just made my lunch for tomorrow. Cooked some pasta shells and then cool them in cold water. Chopped some cherry tomatoes, scallons (spring onions to anyone outside ireland lol), cucumber, peppers and corriander. Add kidney beans, red wine vinegar, onion salt, pepper, garlic and chilli prechopped stuff and mixed it all together with the pasta. Its so handy and its syn free

Thanks Bumpy - great ideas! I feel a trip to Morrisons coming on for some free egg mayonnaise!!

Vicky - great suggestion for a free lunch - I think I'll be trying that out myself!!

Keep the ideas coming ladies - it really helps to keep the diet ideas fresh and stops the boredom creeping in!

I know - I usually send my hubby to do the shopping, but I might just make an effort myself this week!

Thanks for that Bumpy!! most helpful!!!!

Bumpy thats fantastic.

I've just been wandering round asda at lunchtime and fancied something a bit tasty (have apple and muller yog waiting for me back at work). I could have had the tomato and pasta salad.

This is great to know for future.

I'm out and about mostly at week for work so its great to know that if I forget my lunch or feel like something different, I've now got options.

Thanks x
