recipe adapted from original by viv- thank you

serves 3


for the burgers:-

the recipe asked for mince but i used some steak i had in the freezer. i let it defrost a bit then blitzed it in the food processor, that way it stays in mince consistency not a puree.!

so, either a pack of mince or steak minced up.
6 babybel lights ( 2 syns each or 3 for a hea)
2 tsp garlic granules/powder
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp chilli powder
2 beef oxos

for the pasta:-
1 onion chopped
1 red pepper chopped
1 courgette sliced
5 mushrooms sliced
tin of tomatoes
2 tsp oregano
2 tsp tomato puree
2 tbsp of garlic herb philly
tagliatelle

cook pasta as pack instructions and preheat oven gas 6

mix burger ingredients together and season then shape around the babybels spray with frylight and place on a tray in the oven for 10 mins or until cooked. mine cooked really quickly and were succulent and delicious.


fry light a pan and add the peppers, onions and courgettes, cook for 2 mins then add mushrooms and tbsp water.

add a tin of tomatoes & the oregano.

when thats all cooked through, stir in 2 tbsp (30g) of garlic & herb philly, i used tescos brand as philadelphia was out of stock. (1.5 syns)
i used some garlic and chilli freshly ground salt to season

serve with the burgers and a salad or garlic bread reduced fat (4.5 syns per slice in tesco)

really delicious

Here to subscribe some fantastic dishes, do you have the recipe for the leek and cheese bake you posted a pic of in what's for tea tonight. Thanks x

 

[pebbles67]

Hi there guys thanks for all the lovely comments.

Here's the latest dish -

HAM & LEEK CHEESY BAKE
---------------------------------

Serves 2

3 leeks ( depending on size)
Pack of ham
60g cheese ( 2 heas, 1 per portion)
4 mushrooms
I used 1 tbsp English mustard and 1 tbsp whole grain but you could use any mustard, French, Dijon etc.
I used 3 tbsp reduced fat creme Fraiche because I had to use it up but you could use quark
And about 50 mls milk - 0.5 syn

Preheat oven gas 7
Trim leeks removing very green ends and cut to size to fit your oven dish. If there are pieces left over you can join them up to form another line when you're ready to put them in the dish.

Then place them in a pan of boiling water for 6-7 mins until just tender
Remove from pan and allow to cool enough to handle
Wrap each leek or part of leek in ham and place into dish.
Slice mushrooms and add on top

Then mix the grated cheese, the creme Fraiche / quark and mustard to a paste. Add salt & pepper and a little of the milk bit by bit until you have a sauce ( but not too thin) consistency. The leeks will give out some extra water during cooking so don't make sauce too runny.

Spoon over the leeks season again and bake for 15 mins or until browned
