Hairy Dieters cook book

[Lexie2005]

In the book people for 4.99, well worth the money, single item postage is about 2 quid so still cheaper than I've seen it anywhere else

I got mine in Grantham . I don't struggle in winter either. If you e got a slow cooker it's easy to put on a meal for when you get back from work on a cold day and I always have a pot of soup there. It's so low calorie but warms you up when you need a snack

I use my slow cooker 3 times a week in the winter at least, get home from work & it's more or less done it is a lifesaver!

Just suggested to OH that we should get a slow cooker - he said if I can sucessfully cook 3 recepies (I am an awful cook) that can be cooked in it he will buy me one!! The challenge will be completed

You can also download receipes off the BBc website. its only got the ones that were featured on the TV series but they sound good.

I tried the chilli cups one and tried to get my tortillas to shape into cups like on the programme but they fell apart - i obviously did something wrong!!!

Did the cottage pie tonight - bloody lovely, it says serves 6-8 but it wouldn't serve 8 in our house, I split it in to 6 though, 2 will go in the freezer for my late shifts

Then send him round lol. I like cooking but I'll give up my kitchen if I've got something nice to ogle

Actually the chilli was yummy and I've also made thd paprika chicken which was also delish

Lexie and I have a thing about portion sizes the HD portions are correct but only if you've trained your family to eat proper portion sizes . Mine do now apart from 20 year old son who can Hoover up the entire family's portions in one go.

What I have found though is that their calorie counts are wrong. On mfp you can search and it comes up with the cals but if you type it in as a recipe using your ingredients the result is vastly different

You did on a photo one day. Hairy dieters said cottage pie served 6 or 8, definitely only 6 adult portions!

Think I will definitely invest,
