ProPoints As the name says "iwillbeaskinnyminnie" in 2012. Food diary.

Ahh today is a write off. The curry was yucky, it was soo watery and literally had 4 cubes of chicken in it. For 9 points and M&S i expected more! This wasnt just rubbish food. It was M&S rubbish food!

I need to do some cooking i think and batch things up in the freezer. Hitting a plato with the ready meals. I jus have no time on my hands! xx

Was thinking of making some bisto cheese sauce up, only a little bit for my chicken and bacon but cant figure out the points for the sauces. It says 50g would be 7pp on eSource. But is that 50g of granules or 50g made up? Confused! As a sauce surely would be measured as ml and not g? lol! xx

On the packet it says 50ml portion prepared to instruction so its the finished weight xxx I've worked it out to be 1pp per portion but its best if someone else were to double check x

Ahh I cant wait... La Tasca is my treat! I adore tapas food, was worried though as a lot of it is fried. However they say the meditarranean diet is very healthy anyway! ;) x
