Tomorrow's brekkie all plated up and ready to go- Ham and cheese muffins with quorn sausage and roasted cherry toms. My baking tray was too shallow so my egg mixture spilled over the side of the cases- not too hot on presentation but still taste nice.

Hun, you can minus 6 syns for wholemeal bread, if that's what it was. The extra syns will have come from the extra bread, which was probably full size from 800g loaf not from 400g loaf, margarine and any preservatives used to keep the sandwich fresh.

Home made is the only way you can really guarantee SW perfection!

Grilled duck with cherry sauce served with Pak Choi and vegetables, 2 syns on red/EE

OMG - This was the nicest meal i have cooked for agggeeeees!!!!

Ooooh, you wont regret it! Get your fillets from the bucthers if you can, we did and the quality was superb.

 

[Vixxster]

I deffo will, I found a lovely butchers near us that i've never noticed before. The other week I got a duck crown from Asda and it looked large and meaty and yummy and we were lucky to get about one large chicken fillet's worth from it between two of us.

Nice little investment for a romantic dinner for me and OH on BHM methinks!

 

[ilovelife]

Lemon & Lime Soda

I had this as dessert last night. It reminded me of what I get from my local ice cream shop in America!

Next time I'll try it with some vanilla ice cream as I think it'll be nicer.

Put some sparkling water (ice cold) in a glass. Add a little no added sugar lime cordial (Tesco) and a couple of scoops of lemon sorbet (Waitrose one is 5 syns per 1/4 tub) and top with light aerosol cream (1 syn per 12g).
