In the peanut curry you have 200mL stock, 1 Knorr herb stockpot+water!

Most of my recipes are my own idea.
I think about something I fancy then I look up recipes on the internet, I get a few then pull them apart, convert to SW wherever I can and based on the ingredients that I have, make it! When I first started on SW I converted all my favourite meals, that way it didn't appear to be a "diet".
Enjoy!

Ooo I made the tuna and mozzarella bake this week, its really nice but mine came out a bit dry so maybe add a bit more tomato? We ended up mixing it with some free tomato soup that I'd made the day before :)
