favorite in our house is a cheesy beany bake which is easily adapted to slimming world.

dry fry onion mushrooms and lean bacon add baked beans and transfer to an oven proof dish. Top with mash potatoes or any mash veg you fancy, top with hexa of grated cheese, bake until cheese golden brown :D

you can season the beans any way you like, will sometimes do it with smokey paprika and worcester sauce to give it a BBQ flavour

my kids love it :D:D:D
 
My all time favourite thing to eat is cooked basmati rice mixed with baked beans and curry powder. Heat all up together and stir through some HEX cheese and reserve some for the top. It might need some water to let it down a bit. Sprinkle cheese on the top when serving. Its like a bean curry I guess!

Its also nice with baby shell pasta instead of rice.

Yum! :drool:
 
Sounds very strange, but our consultant mentioned this last week. Doesn't sound very appetising but she said it was lovely..

She had gotten in from her classes, and was hungry but had used all of her HEx's and Syns. She found a tin of Baked Beans and a tin of Mushy Peas, so she chucked it all into a pan and added Curry Powder.

Suppose it will be a bit like the Mushy Pea Curry :) xx
 
I'm having BBQ beans and veg with Weight Watchers sausages tonight.

I've used a tin of plain cannellini beans, but you could use standard baked beans. They are in the slow cooker now with potatoes, turnips, carrots and this syn free BBQ sauce -

I have also added a tablespoon of black treacle to make it darker and richer, (2 syns per tblspn). I will cook my sausages separately and spoon the beans etc., over, because I like my sausages to have a 'skin' on them, but you could easily just bung them in the slow cooker with everything else.
