Hey everyone,

Not sure if anyone has noticed, but Asda have brought out 2 new salad bowls in their stores (I only noticed them today)

- Asda Spiced Chicken & Mango salad bowl (164 cal)
- Asda Sweet Chilli Chicken Noodle salad bowl (192 cal)

I've tried searching the syn values online database but no avail so I have emailed Slimming World direct to ask when the syn values will be available. I would normally use the 20cal = 1syn method but with it being a salad & having a 'free food' allowance I don't really know if this works?

I haven't tried either yet, but they both look really delicious and will be handy for anyone on the go / wants a quick lunch. They're on offer for 2 for £3

Once I receive a reply / the syns online database updates I will post the syn values :)
 
Why not put the nutritional info through the syn calculator if its not listed :)

I've tried that, but the syn values show as per the 20 cal = 1 syn rule. Will that be right? Even though the majority of it is salad, aka free food allwance. I'm confused. I thought they would be really low syn.
 
here is the info if someone could kindly work it out. Don't have access online and would also like to know please.

Ok, so I've just done both by using poultry as the free food allowance;

- Spiced Chicken & Mango salad bowl (164 cal) - Came out as 3 syns
- Sweet Chilli Chicken Noodle salad bowl (192 cal) - Came out as 5.5syns

Can anyone else confirm that they get the same results please?
 
It wouldn't be chicken as the free food allowance as thats not the main ingredient. It would be noodles for the first one and peppers for the second :)
 
Thanks for that :)

So using the different food allowances I got the following;

- Spiced Chicken & Mango salad bowl (164 cal) - Came out as 4.5syns
- Sweet Chilli Chicken Noodle salad bowl (192 cal) - Came out as 2syns

Haha, I give up. I just hope SW update the syns online database soon.
 
Syns online has finally updated - Below are the syn values on Extra Easy :)

- Spiced Chicken & Mango salad bowl (164 cal) - 3 syns

- Sweet Chilli Chicken Noodle salad bowl (192 cal) - 1.5 syns
