Hello! I'm new too. Am finding it great here - loads of useful info to help us on our way

I think quorn goes well in strong flavoured, rich sauces like chili and bolognese, because it soaks up all the flavours of the herbs and spices with it. I made a lovely spag bol and OH didn't even realise it was quorn and not beef! hehe...
The pieces you could do in a tasty stir fry with lots of ginger, lemon, spring onion and free veg.

Good luck.

Green day: A massive jacket potato (or two if you're hungry!) and quorn chilli with loads of veg in the chilli served with salad (and a bit of balsamic vinegar). It's fab and totally free so you can save up your syns or use them on something else that day.

You can also make a big batch of chilli and freeze it so it's dead easy. I've even taken it to work with me frozen, bought a jacket potato from the shop (plain) and then bunged the chilli on for lunch. Loverly and very filling.

Welcome to the boards, and welcome to SW. Hope you enjoy it!
