I love baked potatoes as a filling lunch. I microwave it at work add a pile of very low fat cottage cheese or baked beans add a big salad on the side with a little dash of balsamic dressing and I get envious looks form work friends who are looking at their boring ham sandwich.

i knew it light mayo couldn't of been free....i was wishfully hoping though i love mayo!! 3 tbs isn't bad for a point though. Donnaxx - your soup sounds lovely - i shall try that one xx

i don't like working out in tbsp, cause everyone's is different and sometimes people take that as a heaped tbsp etc, it's best to work in grams, or whatever else measures it's mass

100gs of extra light mayo = 73 cals and 0.5 sat fat, 1 point!

 

[donnaxx]

the spoon on has been confusing me, is a tea/table spoon counted as level or heaped?

 

[Catherine26]

Hey Donnaxx i made the soup you mentioned (carrot, onion etc) OMG it was lovely and even better that it is 0 points woohoo xx

Im another fan of pasta salads, you could also make rice salads, or leftovers from the previous nights dinner.
Baked spuds too, noodles...or what about a microwave dinner every so often?
