Hi everyone im back chunckie chez

Good morning all - I have rather eceltic - reading tastes too
I am currently readying two books and working on me called the inner child
and the second (light reading) is called ready steady dig - and I cant remember the author - but as I say its light reading - the sort that makes you smile from time to time

now Chez after we all commandeered your diary to share books I am wondering how you are today - hope you had a good weekend - have to admit to pizza for dinner saturday night but did manage to stick to half of a small one with salad - then last night pitta with linda mccartney burger and salad so not too bad - tonight will be far more conventional

hope this week is really good for you especially at weigh in :) I weight every two weeks and its a weigh in week for me :)

im glad your doing well and that your keeping busy thats good as your mind is on other things i just think your amazing your so good with art and you imagination to create something in your mind and then to make it is so clever wow
its been a good day today i found that if i want something sweet i have bought some weight watchers carrot cake and lemon slices but im going to try and find a recipe to make them myself as i want to know what im putting in my mouth as someone on here as said there not as healthy as i think :eek: and i want to see if i can make some scones and try to keep them low fat and calorie low to gosh i love them a very little butter and some good for you strawberry jam oh gosh i have dribbles coming out of my mouth lololol
how are you hun xxxxxx
 
you can cook with spenda to the same volume as the sugar used and you can add apple sauce to replace some of the fat

so for instance in a sponge cake

4oz flour
4oz sugar
2 eggs
4oz fat
instead do the following
4oz flour (could use rice flour as it is marginally better for you)
now measure the 4oz of sugar in a jug and use the same volume of a granulated sweetner
and use 2oz of melted fat(or could use oil like I do and add in some previously cooked bramley apple

you can change any recipe like that just make sure you put a little raising agent in as the apple sauce is heavy :):)
and whats more my husband ate cake made like that and he couldnt tell the difference - think it was carrot cake I had made

oh hazel do you have the recipe for carrot cake please i would love to try that
chezz x x
 
preheat oven to 180
put first three ingredients into a food processor and wizz or in a bowl and beat it well fold in the next three or wizz enough to blend add next three with salt if using and blend or mix in bowl
ewer
I use a lined square baking tin but can use a round one put mix in and cook in oven for 30-40 mins until squewer comes out clean
then leave in tin for 5mins and then out of tin to cool completely
mix philly with granulated sugar and put over top when cake is cool

now I often speed things up but putting in a microwave proof container and cooking for about 10mins on med (I have a 1000w machine) check it and give it a bit longer if necessary

now you can change out most or all of the olive oil for some cooked bramley apple but that recipe has very little fat per serving and olive oil is good for you
it serves 6 good sized portions but when I put it in a square container I make it into 9 and they are large enough for me
but 50ml of oil is less than a table spoon per portion on 6 servings but for nine portions it is even less

not that slimming world friendly but nice for a treat now and then and once portioned out its not too bad :):)

hope you enjoy it
