At the moment it's sandwiches with no butter, which can be pretty dry. I am looking for packed lunch ideas to take to work with me and wondering if there's any delicious but slimming ideas out there?
extra light flora is only 0.5 per 10gs and honestly that's loads!
or you can use philly extra light which is 0.5 per 30gs
fill it up with salad and mayo (like suggested above) get some cheese slices, tesco do some which are 1 point per slice
wafer thin hams / turkey / chicken are only 0.5point per 30gs
and you can get chicken breast which is low in points also
what bread do you use? WW do these baguette rolls only 1.5 per one and you bake them in oven for 8mins before using and they are gorgeous and fill you up
I like crackerbreads and a tin of the ww salmon or tuna for a low point lunch.
I also like the ww part bake rolls, fair size for 1.5 points. My fave filling at the moment is morrisons coronation chicken, think its about 2.5 points for 50g. Yummy.
I swear by pasta salads. 40g dry pasta makes a perfect serving size for me for lunch. Add a small tin of tuna stirred through with a tbsp ex.light salad cream, and some chopped tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, spring onions and black pepper, you've got heaps of food there for 3.5 points, better pointage than a sarnie too!
Me too -nothing like new potatoes with it on! (btw: what are New potatoes points wise? - I haven't properly joined WW yet so I don't know the points of a lot of things)
there are several no point soups in the books but you can use any number of vegetables with chopped tomatoes and stock I like the carrot pepper and butternut one. I think the recipe is in recipe section
I made a lovely zero point soup the other day using tinned tomatoes, tomatoes, thinly sliced carrots, diced butternut squash, vegetable stock, onions, garlic, peppers and broccoli. (and pretty much any other vegetable I could find in my fridge)
I bunged everything into a big pot, added some herbs, brought to the boil and simmered for around 30 minutes until the squash and carrots were soft. Once it was cool I blended half of it and returned it to the pot to mix with the rest.
It tastes divine (if I do say so myself!):talk017:
