Co-op low fat ready meals

[Dibs]

I was wondering if anyone knows the syn value of the co-op low fat salmon pie and the co-op low fat chicken tikka masala ready meal?

Hi Dibs,

I think the fish pie is 8 and the chicken is 9. There are a few different options on there. If you pop the nutritional info up, I can run it through the calculator for you.

Thank you x That would be so helpful.

The salmon pie is -
333 kcals per 400g pack,
Fat - 8.4g (of which saturates 4g)
Carbohydrate - 33g (of which sugars 4.8g),
Fibre - 4g
Protein -30g

The chicken tikka masala is -
367 kcals per 350g pack,
Fat- 8.6 g (of which saturates 4.1g)
Carbohydrate -48g (of which sugars 6.5g)
Fibre - 3.5g
Protein - 23g

Thanks so much xx

No problem Just to check, the 333 kcals is for the whole 400g pack, not for a single serving?
If it is for the whole thing, it's coming up as free on the calculator, with salmon as a free food. If not, then it's 23.5 syns! So make sure you check whether the values are per pack or per 100g.

And the chicken tikka masala, worked out for the whole pack is coming up as 11 syns.

Hope that makes sense!

Yes, 333 Kcals is for the whole 400g pack of salmon pie, I just double checked. So its free? wow!! That's surprising.

Thanks x

It came up on the calculator as free. I've double checked to make sure! I'm assuming that the salmon counts towards free food allowance. x

Thanks for double checking There's cheddar cheese, double cream and milk on the ingredients list. But perhaps they are just in tiny quantities. Maybe I'll count the meal as free if I use it as a healthy extra, just to be safe.
