chickpea dahl

[Petal01]

I had chickpea dahl last night for my tea and im sorry but i thought it was rank!! I just couldn't stomach it at all, i was really lookinf forward to trying it as well!

Doesn't ground polenta have a syn value? I looked it up online and it says that polenta ground/used as flour is 5 syns per 28g. That would make your recipe 45 syns?

Hiya

I'm pretty sure I c&p'd it from here somewhere, but here it is:

Believe it's from the Slimming World Four Seasons cook book?
I made it last night, it was nice warm with a little low fat cream cheese on Would be lovely alongside a Quorn Chilli or as a vegi pizza base.

I totally agree re being careful, but you cook polenta by adding liquid be it water or egg/yogurt batter. I'll have a look at the cook book at class tonight, put our minds at ease (or not lol)

Where is it? I went to my Morrison's and looked all over but couldn't find it.

If it's in the SW cookbook then they must not be counting it as syns. That would be great! I love cornbread!

 

[susan70]

Not sure where it is in morrisons but in asda its near the tined stewing steaks etc.

 

[StaceyUK]

Yeah, I looked there and with the tinned pulses and tinned spaghetti but couldn't find it. They might not sell it in my one.

Morning
Re Corn Bread: I did check the book last night at class, it's the Four Seasons Hardback recipe book, and deffo says free on green - yaay!
I don't think you could eat too much of it anyway - it's quite heavy, but I'm enjoying the odd slice warmed up with half fat cream cheese

 

[StaceyUK]

yay! Thanks for that! That would be really yummy with veggie chilli!

i found it near the pulses
