I know, I suck at breakfast at the moment. I keep waking up really late and just going straight to lunch or shoving some fruit down me.

Hello! Thanks for the advice! For the last few weeks I've been much better at having my 2 Bs, usually 1 on cereal and the other on 1 tbsp of olive oil. I usually only get 1 A a day if I have cereal. I can't afford much vegan cheese and I don't like soy milk that much >_<
The last few days have been Green
Friday:
Breakfast - Chocolate Weetabix (2 syns + B) with soya milk (A)
Lunch - Went to see a friend and she made me a quiche! Argh! I had the smallest portion with the least pastry but I'll count it as 10 syns + B for the olive oil. I had this with salad and corn on the cob...no soy butter!
Dinner - Spag Bol (3 syns) with brown pasta
Drinks - diet coke, squash and green tea
Syns - 15
Today:
Brunch - 2 scan bran (B) with baked beans, mushrooms fried in fry light and balsamic vinegar and 3 Linda sausages (6 syns)
Dinner - Stir fried veggies in brown sauce (onion, pepper, broccoli, petit pois, carrot, 1/2 tbsp arrowroot (2.5 syns), 1 tbsp miso paste (1.5 syns), soy sauce, garlic, 1 tsp reduced fat pb (approx 0.5 syn) water. Served with brown rice.
Drinks - water, squash and green tea
Syns - 10.5
Might have a chocolate or 2 at 2 syns each later

Another Green day here!
I went to The Pogo Cafe for brunch today with friends. Although not the most SW friendly breakfast ever, their Devil breakfast was far healthier for me than the Angel breakfast, which consisted of lots of salads with high fat dressings, nuts, seeds, hummus and avocado. Anyway, who has salad for breakfast!
I had scrambled tofu, 1 linda sausage (2 syns), bacon rasher, creamy mushrooms (A) baked beans and garlic oat bread. The garlic oat bread was so nice, it was sort of sweet but really good with the garlic butter. The scrambled tofu was far better than I could make and the creamy mushrooms were delicious. I'm basically going to use all the syns I saved during the week for this meal, plus today's. The bread will be high due to the flour and they probably used a fair amount of oil. But, I did say no to the fried potato, very pleased!
Dinner was just savoury rice with lots of frozen veg stirred in. I also had a banana
Good days eats! I avoided the Irn Bru cake too, so very pleased with myself.

Mushroom Pate:
1 onion, chopped
1 pack of oyster mushrooms, chopped
1 pack of closed cup chestnut mushrooms, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Pinch of thyme
Splash of soy sauce
1/8 tsp nutmeg
Salt and Pepper
1. Fry the onion in some fry light for about 5 minutes
2. Add the mushrooms, half of the parsley, garlic and thyme. Fry for 15 minutes.
3. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add the soy sauce and nutmeg, salt and pepper and blend until it's relatively smooth (a few lumps are okay). Stir in the rest of the parsley, leave the mixture to cool and then put into the fridge for an hour before serving.
Yummy!
