Personally I'd have them, they're there to give you things like fibre & calcium and that can't be bad.

The book says for green "Choose once or twice from Hex A, and twice from Hex B". So you would be ok only having one dairy choice.

You could have the noodles plain for free, it will be the flavouring that adds the syns. And you can have some meat as a HEB but you need to measure it.

I'm green all the way Gemma!!! Not a big fan of meat so i stick to green green green.
I recommend the three bean chilli from the current magazine - it's really nice...even my boyfriend who grumbled that it sounded gross admitted it was yummy.
instead of having rice I had it with a wholemeal pitta (there's one HEx B done) but it'd be good on a jacket potato too
Ooh, and some grated cheese on top and there's a HexA sneaked in too!!
Good luck with the green week I am sure you'll do fab!
