Honey and soy turkey with rice, pepper and carrot sticks and chilli and Parmesan corn on the cob! Yum xx

You could always try KFC nxt time too. 3 crispy strips are 3 syns each and BBQ beans and a diet coke are free! If u like the gravy I think the small ones only 4 syns! X

Actually I've looked at it totally wrong! It has to be ee there's no other way it could be! Think I need to re read my books :-( x

See in my food optimising book under green day healthy extras The beans are listed but not the rice? Which is why I thought I could do that, but then I remembered in the old book rice was in that section. So I got confused! X

Started making this rogan josh this morning! Wow! So beautiful! The best slimming world recipe I have ever tried! I've added some peppers to mine to add more veg and after about 40 mins I stopped cooking to finish it off at tea time and it's still worked out fine! Put a little hit of water in...

Does any one of the syn value for 50g of the light vanilla carte d'0r. In lastinths magazine in the meal planner it says u can have 25g of reduce fat I've cream and it's 1.5 syns, but I was after a more accurate value if possible x
