The topping uses 4hexA's so each portion is one hexA and one syn for cornflour.

1 tablespoon of cornstarch (3.5 syns)
250 ml of semi skimmed milk (1 HEa)
28g of parmesan cheese (1 HEa)
Then for topping if using for lasagne
42g mozzarella (1HEa)
28g of Parmesan cheese (1HEa)

Mix the cornstarch with a little of the milk and add to the rest of the milk in a small saucepan over a low heat, constantly stirring until it comes to a boil and thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the 28g of parmesan cheese.

Spread over your lasagne. Turn oven up to 200c or 400f and bake for 30 mins, remove from oven add the 42g of mozzarella and remaining 28g of parmesan to the top and return to the oven for approx 5-10 mins until cheese has melted and is golden.

It makes a proper creamy cheesy white sauce lol well worth spending your HEX!!!
 
SATURDAY

Breakfast
Wholemeal roll 60g (hexB) bacon frylighted egg mushrooms brown sauce (2syn)

Lunch
Leftover salad. With stuff. Probably ham or turkey with 30g of grated cheese and a small grated apple. Do I syn grated apple if I eat it straightaway? Or just if it's cooked?? I can slice it veeeeery fine instead and toss in my salad but that seems kinda pointless!!!!

Dinner
Madamlaminxes salt and pepper chicken an SW chips. (chicken spring onions red peppers chilli garlic salt pepper) might add a splash of soy....With mooooore salad :)

HexA cheese (30g full fat cheddar)
HexB bread

Snacks
Banana grapes strawberries
