Quorn Cannelloni

Ingredients:
2 garlic cloves
2 eggs
Handful of fresh Parsley
12 oz/340g Quorn Mince
400g can chopped tomatoes with herbs
14 oz/397g Passata
12 Cannelloni Tubes
14 oz/397g very low-fat natural yoghurt


Method:
Preheat the oven to 180c/350f/Gas 4. Peel & crush the garlic. Beat the eggs. Chop the parsley. Mix the Quorn with the garlic & tomatoes and use this mixture to stuff the cannelloni tubes. Spread the passata over the bottom of a lasagne dish & arrange the tubes in a single layer on top. Mix the eggs & yoghurt together & pour over. Bake for 35 minutes. Sprinkle over the Parsley.

Serves 4
Syns per serving:
Free on green & extra easy

NB: You can also use your 42g of Mozzarella from your HE A allowance, sprinkle the cheese over the top of the eggs & yoghurt mixture before you bake in the oven, this gives it a crispier topping.
 
Spaghetti Arrabiatta
Fry on a low heat (in olive oil HexB or Fry Light) some chopped shallots, and garlic with a small pinch of dried chilli flakes (depending on how hot you want it)
Once softened add some passatta, salt, pepper, oregano, pinch of sweetner and a splash of balsamic vinegar and allow to reduce down for about 10 mins.
Toss through cooked spaghetti and top with Hex A amount of parmesan.


Mushroom Stroganoff (almost syn free)
'Fry' in Frylight some sliced shallots with a tiny dash of water, and a spice mix of ground cumin, sweet paprika and chilli powder. Once soft add lots and lots of thinly sliced mushrooms and cook until soft.
Add reduced fat creme fraiche to taste (I usually use 1tbsp per person - 1.5 syns each), warm through, then add some lemon juice and freshly chopped parsley right at the end.
Serve with SW chips, or rice, or both!
