I have purchased this to shake up the same-old same-old meals we eat from WHSmith for the bargain price of £7.49 this week; half the price of the RRP and cheaper than amazon! You know what? the recipes look proper tasty. Not attempted to syn any of them up yet, but it's inspired me a bit!

The hairy bikers had a programme on this week were they are dieting and they made a healthy take on lasagne with a sauce and using blanched leeks as pasta sheets. Looked yum!

It's £4.99 at the thebookpeople.com and if you google I'm sure you'll find a free delivery code kicking about too.

The Leek Lasagne looked yummy, you could easily make that low syn or syn free by leaving out the red wine in the tomato base or using the semi skimmed milk as healthy extra A in the bechmel sauce and syn the cornflour and the cheese topping
their meal serves six so would have to work out portions and syns that way. will be looking at the book or just robbing the recipes off the website after each programme
BBC - Food - Recipes : Skinny beef lasagne
theres the recipe for the lasagne. Would have to make a few tweaks to make it SW friendly like ex. lean mince instead of just lean and working out what you want you want to omit for syns etc.
cant wait to see some other recipes from them and im hoping their weight loss goes well. love the bikers

I think the Cassoulet looks quite SW friendly (with a few tweaks)
the sainsburys Be Good to Yourself Extra Lean Pork Cumberland Sausages, 8 pack, chilled, 57g each are 1/2 syn each so you could use them and maybe throw in a few extra veggies to boost the superfree content if you wished (and either syn the wine ans sugar or leave them out )
could be worth a try i may even try it this week, will let you guys know if i do and how i get on

I ordered it from the Book People a couple of weeks ago, and had delivery of the same within two days.
Lovely book, but haven't really followed any of the recipes yet, but then again, I rarely, do, to any book, as I tend to adapt to my own tastes etc.

I'm the same as I like to adapt recipes to suit my taste but I really enjoyed this show and some of the food looked nice so I look forward to adapting it to be SW friendly
I am also glad to hear that you got your copy with no issues as I am a bit worried about mine as the confirmation said it had been sent with YODEL/HDNL andI have had issues with them in the past so I am hoping it comes soon
