[pebbles67]

Well done on all ur losses and well done pebbles on that half a pound despite the biscuits! I have lost 1lb this week (amazed after my naughty drinking weekend, drunken takeaway and hangover mcdonalds!). So that puts me at 10st10lb now. Good luck to those left to weigh! I have a question... Fajitas are one of my favourite meals but I haven't had them since startin sw - the ready bought spice mixes are high in syns and so are te wraps. Does anybody have any similar/alternatives for fajitas using minimal syns? Xxx

Hi Laura- there is a recipe for wraps made with mung beans. You buy the mung beans soak them and then make the wrap. I'll try and grab the recipe and pop it on for you x

Here you go laura -

Pete’s Mung Bean Wraps

Ingredients

200g/Cup of Mung/Moong Beans
Makes about 8 wraps
Salt
Method

Soak the beans in cold water for between 12 -48 hrs. Depending whether they are split beans or whole, changing the water at regular intervals, removing any hardened beans.
When ready grind them using a food processer and a small amount of water, adding salt, until you have a mixture similar to a pancake mix but slightly thicker.
Heat a frying pan sprayed with Fry Light until its hot then ladle the mix and smooth out using the base of the ladle to form a thin coating, cook for 3-4 mins and flip over and cook until the other side is done. Use for wraps while still slightly warm to ensure easy folding.

Hi, just a quick update chicken n butternut squash curry last night chips in and rice , then I ate a whole tub of strawberry onken fat free and 7 roses for my weigh in day treat.





Today ( Friday) at work all day. Had all bran crisp for brekkie, ham and cheese salad sandwich and salad cream, activia yogurt and fresh raspberries. For tea I wasn't hungry not sure why just didn't fancy much, so had a stuffed field mushroom with garlic Philly and cheddar baked in oven, plus some mushy peas! Yeah I know- don't even go there! I'm seriously officially weird!

Wooh thanks for the recipe Pebbles .... Is this a really silly question - but what are Mung beans and where would I find them? Are those wraps also free? Thanks for that - I love fajitas so very happy I don't have to wave bye bye to them! It's great to see some of ur recipes too. Iv been doing sw for 6 weeks now and am getting a bit repetitive with my food so I am aiming to throw in one new recipe each week if possible xxx

Hi Laura you'll find mung beans in the packet rice, pasta, lentil etc section any store. But I got mine in the co-op they do need soaking though for 24-48hrs. I'll find the threads for you read about them, and post on here tomoro. And yes theyre free. X
