Valentine's Meal

[laura2481]

Anyone else making a SW friendly Valentine's meal tonight? I'm making:

Starter: Asparagas wrapped with smokey bacon (going to use the medallians which have no fat on them) Baked in oven sprayed with frylight and sprinkling of sea salt. FREE

Main: Beef Pizzaiola. Steak in a tomatoey sauce topped with mozzarella (FREE + HEA) (not sure what to serve with though + veg and SW chips?)

Dessert:Chocolate and Passionfruit mousse 5 syns (similar to choc and amaretto mousse on SW site but using passionfruit liqeur instead and poss served with fresh passionfruit if the have it as supermarket )

Sounds good! I'd go with some green veggies like brocolli and green beans and definately the chips since it's steak!

I don't do valentines day but hubby will be getting something SW friendly as usual for dinner!

We're planning on having it, although the way I'm feeling and have been feeling all weekend I'll probably have toast as it's the only thing staying put and go to bed (at least I've lost 4lbs in two days though).

I always have my food delivered from Ocado - i think they do reasonable priced steaks -

 

[Sarah-Jayne]

Well, I was going to do a SW friendly meal tonight but my valentines present from the OH is a 3 course hand prepared and cooked meal consisting of prawn coctail for starters, garlic bread, pasta bake and chips for main and a cheesecake for afters all washed down with rose wine! He is going to cook the whole lot! Cant wait. Back on the wagon tomorrow! x

My OH is cooking SW-friendly seafood risotto, and there's strawberries and blueberries with low-fat yoghurt for pud. I'll probably go over my syns a bit with the champagne, but I haven't had any syns so far today and you only live once

Omg that is so weird we are having almost exactly the same. Seafood paella then strawberry and blueberries on top of a meringue nest and a bottle of champers between us!
Bless the other half he offered to sticknto plan for me
Recon 2 glasses of champers and the nest should come to about 15 syns

 

[who_la_hoop]

Hee, Nixy, we obviously have excellent taste! *grin* I don't usually buy fruits like blueberries 'cos they're so expensive fresh, but there was a great offer at the supermarket. Nommy!
