Good morning everyone!
More pondering about my holiday food - I'm putting together a bank of easily prepared, delicious, 'treat' dinners that I know I will love and which will satisfy the taste buds - and are SW friendly! Ditto for favourite breakfasts although they are not so much of an issue.
And I will definitely up the syns I have - just for that week - if I 'need' them.

Yesterday's meals:
I spray fried some sliced onion, red pepper and mushroom and then added some chunked chicken breast and stir fried it until it was cooked through. Then I just added two tbsp M&S mango and sweet chili dipping sauce which is one syn per tbsp.
That was it but it would be great with more veg, maybe a bit of fruit like pineapple or peach and some cashew nuts would work really well too. I am definitely having this again.
I had an apple for afters.
By the time I had finished speeding up the basic mince, I had enough to make two portions which cut the healthy extra As to one.
I've popped it in the freezer for another time.
A Mullerlight followed and that was me for the day.
This week's focus
still keeping that detailed diary for Jen
fifteen plus speed
two and a half syns
Today's plans:
B: mushroom and tomato omelette
A mushroom omelette, with tomatoes on the top.
SW: speed and protein

SW: speed and protein
L: pitta pizza, salad; fruit
Using a pitta read for a base (or maybe a wrap, I'll decide nearer the time, I will spread over some tomato left over from the can I opened at the weekend and then top with onion, mushroom, pepper and grated cheddar. I might add some bacon too, I will see.

SW: one healthy extra B and one healthy extra A
D: chicken dopiaza, green lentils; yogurt
I found this recipe on the SW site and will follow the spicing pretty much to the letter as I'm not over confident with curry.
I have some cooked green lentils in the freezer so I will serve them with the curry instead of rice. It's a bit low on speed veg, that's the only thing, so I'll probably add mushrooms and peppers to the curry.

SW: just half a syn for the yogurt
Exercise: a walk, something on youtube
Change of plan - my hairdresser has had to reschedule so I'm off to one of Lindsey's classes this morning to see what it is like and if I would like to do it regularly. I've got some credits from missed sessions so it's a freebie.
Summary
up to two healthy extra As
one healthy extra B
half a syn
From the freezer:
pitta
chicken
green lentils
The lasagne looks good - I keep meaning to buy nutmeg. One pound off for me last evening so that's my stone and a half plus a bit and only two and a half to reach target. Daughter had her first gain but she had had a particularly social week and was expecting it, so was ok about it. Our Consultant wasn't there - again - I am glad that I am getting close to my target as there is no continuity.
ReplyDeleteThat['s a brilliant loss, well done to you, but such a shame the consultant isn't regular. It makes such a difference.
DeleteAs long as she knows why, that's the main thing, isn't it.
Here's to losing the rest nice and quick now. xx
