*Tesco 'Cars' Roast Dinner (it's actually for kids, it's in the chilled section and has a pic of Lightening McQueen on the front. You get chicken breast in gravy, mini roasties, yorky pud, peas and carrots.... I think it's great if you are in a rush!)

My absolute Favourite discovery is .......

I actually sprinkle Sweetener on mine and I end up with slightly sweet and slightly salted popcorn which tastes yummy!!

My WW leader told me about a bag of marshmallows that were only 1 pt a bag, has anyone found them yet?

Just found this reading some threads, I bought some Sainsburys sugar free marshmallows which are 2 points for the bag, I shared mine so I only had 1 point.

and the classic cheese triangle half point, stock cubes i use them to add a bit of taste to everthing!!! lol
the ww crisps are gorge, expensive but really tasty, especially the hula hoop ones, a point a pack and you get way more in them than normal hulahoops altho often tempted to throw bit more salt over them for a bit more taste!!!

BikiniBod what is manhattan popcorn??

 

[bikinibod]

oh its lovely big bag of salted popcorn, the supermarket should have it, or maybe its only available in ireland?

 

[Kater-tater]

Didnt know you where from ireland? lol Im not really a fan of salted popcorn but will check it out next time im anywhere for everyone else

 

[Kater-tater]

Mentioned these in a few other places but Kellogs new FIbre plus bars are fantastic. They come in 2 flavours milk choc and dark choc and almond. They have real chocolate so taste like a choc bar, not chocolate flavoured like Aplens if you know what i mean. 2 points and 20% of your daily fibre so they are really filling too.

I'm new to this site. But my mum just rang me up with a recipe that she has just tried (Shes a cook in a care home) can adapt to ww.

• 1 slice of medium bread - cut the crusts off or use crustless bread (0.5pt) roll the bread untill its flat
• Butter the bread - use low fat spread or butter spray (0-0.5 pt)
• Put in muffin tin so it makes a flower shape
• put spinach in the bottom and crack a egg on top (1.5) season.
• Bake in the oven 180/gm4 for 20 mins

she said it tastes absolutely gorgeous, looks pretty on the plate and can be adapted to be a starter at a dinner party, a tea with some salad or a dinner with a jacket and some salad etc all for only 2-2.5 point!
