I work Saturday out as 19.5 syns hunny.

You can do this Gravy and its syn free, and you can freeze it in batches for dinners.

Dont beat yourself up about the oat bar. Its amazing how high in syns some of hese are. Alpen lights are a very good alternative and you can have them as a HEB!

will use more of my HEXA for cups of tea through the day.

but, i need another HEXA on green, dont i??

Ok your on a EE day

So one slice of your bread is a HEB .

Chicken is free on a EE day You have put it as a HEB
;)
 
soz hun, just changed it am trying out a GREEN day today, hence why i've added it as the HEXB this is what the booklet says for green days? x
 
Just cooking my curry and it smells LUSH
this is a change for me as i usually use jars that are ready done, which are probs synned through the roof lol plus they seem to be greasy, which this isnt..

wish i had a naan to go with it though!
 
Next time you'll have to make the syn free onion bhaji's to go with it (recipe will be on the recipe sub-forum somewhere!).
 
Mmm.. yeah might do that, would be perfect to go with it... might have to use the tikka masala paste next time too, Just to save on them syns!
 
Buy mini nans , tescos do a healthy eating one. The syns wont be horrendus. I cook all my currys from scratch. I do a Korma using Philli lite. They always taste much nicer made from scratch.

Good tip is when you measure all your spices, make into a paste with water, and to release the flavour 'frylite' fry them with your onions. It makes the spices come out more.
 
Good tips there hun, thank you.. I was V lazy and used the pataks paste hehe!!! x

Must say, the curry was lovely... !!!
I may treat myself to a mini milk in a little while =D
