Used some of my syns for lunch for a tin of weightwatchers tomato soup it's made by Heinz and tastes nearly as good as their regular tomato soup yum yum 3.5 syns for the whole tin 
Also had 2 ryvita topped with Phili light & pickled onions and some tomatoes and a weightwatchers yoghurt . Very nice . Been really hungry the last few days .

Add the beef, mix well, and add beef stock. Make up the sauce mix as per the instructions on the packet and when it starts to thicken, add to the beef & mushrooms, mix well add the paprika, (At this point you could place ingredients in a slow cooker and leave to slow cook.) seasoning & cook for 20-30 mins.
Measure the amount of rice required, add 3 times the amount of water, add rice & cook for 20 mins, or until the water has gone, removed when cooked, place in a sieve & place the sieve on the saucepan and cover with a lid, allow to steam for a few minutes, until the beef is ready.
