Yep, majority of them are xx

Yes, Ruthy is right the Batchelors one seem to be free on green. I bought the Tesco's own ones this week (cos i'm a cheapsgate) and some of them have syns which i didn't realise. Mind you only 1 to 1.5 per whole pack so not too bad.

 

[~will do it this time~]

I was surprised they were free as thye have about 350 cals per pack and it isn't that filling < I didn't think so anyway>

So last time I had some I added loads of frozen peppers, onions, mushrooms, chilli and some extra veg... made it into a huge meal that I could'nt eat at one go.... and It didn't take any longer to cook, I just put everything in the same pan at the same time as the rice....

Does anyone add anything else to theirs?

 

[SammyMac]

Hi, yes, i like to let mine either cool a little or go cold and chop up salad to go in it (apple, carrot, pepper, onion, cucumber, celery, lettuce, tomatoes) plus chop up 3 Mini Babybel Light (HEA), found it makes a lovely filling lunch.

 

[~will do it this time~]

That sounds yummy, never thought about letting it go cold....

Another one to add to the must do list....

Yea, i do the same with cous cous too (and i make them up with some Chicken Bovril to add a bit of flavour if you just have the plain ones).

You can also add hard boiled eggs (free food) as well as or instead of the Babybels.

Makes a good packed lunch to take to work i find - and your colleagues will be eyeing you suspiciously and making comments like "i thought you were on a diet" LOL

I love the savoury rices. I like to have mine with a dish. I might have some with a fish dish later

 

[RUTHYJ357]

I chop chunky salad veg up and throw it in too! and i eat it either hot or cold!
Just great

I had a packet for the first time this week. I had it with fried off quorn pieces, chopped hard boiled eggs, mushrooms, sauteed courgettes and cheese from HEX.

 

[sarahgillian]

Are the Super Noodles free as well?

Hi Sarahgillian,

Welcome to Slimming World. The low fat ones are, I think the are 3 flavours, my favourite are the sweet chilli ones. SW is great to follow, just make sure you eat enough, the more (of the right things) the better.

I've go the BBQ Beef ones in the cupboard but I don't think they are low fat.

They are really handy to have in teh cupboard as a quick fix. I keep a few packs in my drawer at work in case I forget (too lazy) to make lunch at home.

Just re read my post above... they all say free but only on green day x
