Stuffed Romano peppers with puy lentils and grilled Greek cheese ( like halloumi but called Greek grilling cheese in supermarkets) sweetcorn peas carrots and beans, salmon with chilli BBQ sauce.
Wouldn't buy asda frozen salmon again. Tasteless and dry as cardboard.

Sounds nice, but is a slow-pot the same as a slow cooker?

Hey cg if you want an actifry Argos have them on special offer at moment but they are still cheaper on eBay. I got a really good one for £30 . I did a local search and collected it from just a few miles away x

I made my garlic chicken & roast vegetable lasagne last night and it was soooo good! Recipe is on page 8 of the recipe thread. This time I used half cheddar and half parmesan - yum!!! Worked out to be 1/2 HEX A and 1/2 HEX B, and 1.5 syns as it was too much for me to eat half of the whole lasagne!

Can I get the recipe for that please Stacey? It looks absolutely divine!!

Macaroni Cheese

YUM! Recipe please!!!!!

 

[Joanne24]

YUM! Recipe please!!!!!

Morrisons sachet of cheese sauce (the green packet! very important because it is only 4 syns for the whole pack and you make it up with boiling water and not milk. Plus its soo tasty!)
42g of RF cheddar per person
Red onion
Sliced tomato
Enough pasta per person (I dont do measuring lol!)

Boil up some pasta, I think its something like 75g of pasta per serving. I just did it by eye!

Drained the pasta and made up the cheese sauce by making it up to a 1/2 pint with boiling water.

Add the pasta to a large bowl, pour the cheese sauce over the pasta. Chop up a red onion and mix it into the pasta mix.

If your making 4 the cheese would be 168g or for two 84g. Put half of your grated cheese in the bowl and mix with the pasta, keep the other half for later.

Give a oven proof dish a spray with frylight and spoon in the pasta mix. Add the sliced toms to the top and then top with the rest of your cheese.

Bung in a hot oven for about 20 mins and your done!

If your serving 4, per serving is 1 HEXA + 1syn
serving 2, per serving is 1 HEXA + 2 syns

I didn't think I would ever like packet cheese sauce but omg.. tastes amazing! Proper mac and cheese!

HTH xxx

I think I will try this, I have been making a SW mac n cheese but syn wise this is much the same and I'm sure tastes better. Do u know of any other supermarket low syn cheese sauces? You don't get Morrisons in Belfast :-( x x
