Philly Leek Pasta....My Indulgence

[dollybird15x]

I really discovered the idea of using Philadelphia as a pasta sauce through a friend who used his over pork chops. As i dont eat pork chops i amended it slightly and now have this as my naughty treat, even though its not actually that naughty it just feels it!!!

Serves 2 People. 4 Syns Each

1 Pack Baby Mushrooms, halved
2 Leeks, washed and sliced
100g Philadelphia Light w/ Garlic and Herbs (8 syns total, 4 per serving)
1 Stock Cube mixed with 200ml Hot Water
Fry Light
Pasta (I use Penne but any is fine)

Saute mushrooms and leeks in fry light until softened, add stock and boil for a few mins until reduced. stir in Philadelphia and cook for further few mins, mix into cooked pasta and enjoy!!!


Sounds really easy (which is it) but is totally gorgeous aswell! Also works really well with a load of frozen peas and green beans chucked in too

Bon Appetite!

Just didnt want you using up your syns when you could be having something else, enjoy I'm giong to make this tonight, just wish my OH liked leeks!

You can't use the flavoured Philly light as a hea though. They can only be used as a heb on the green plan.

 

[Skulldilocks]

Oh right, I never buy the flavoured ones only ever extra light, which is more than 75g allowance Just add garlic granules and mxied herbs! x

My C said otherwise yesterday and was pretty certain you could use chilli philli as HEXA?

ive always been told the flavoured ones you cant use as hexa's as they dont have enough calcium, only a hexb on green for protein. im not longer a group member so cant access the healthy extras list but if you go to group you can log in to the website and check the up to date drop down lists?

I also made a lovely Cajun sauce with Philly, red and green peppers, onions and a splash of water to loosen it and some Cajun spice. only needs a small amount of Cajun spice as very hot but absolutely delish! hoping to make this to top grilled chicken breast aswell, yum!!
