I've decided it would be helpful to keep a food diary, for accountability and all that jazz. I'm doing EE at the moment, though quite a lot of my days would probably fit into green as I don't eat masses of meat. I'm breastfeeding at the moment, so get 6 hexs, in case that causes any confusion! Advice and comments very welcome.

Hi Nice food diary.

I have always strayed away from roast dinners as I worried they would be too high in syns, but your roast sounds delicious! How do you roast potatos? Is it just a case of coating with spray light?

Thank you!

I did the potato and parsnips by parboiling for 10 mins, then spraying v liberally with fry light, and I scattered some chopped garlic and rosemary over the top for added flavour. It was the first time I'd done them, and I was a little bit worried they'd be rubbish compared to the husband's which I did in the chicken pan, bit they were lovely, and I didn't feel deprived at all.
