Good morning, everyone, and welcome to my maintaining on Slimming World blog where I talk about the meals I enjoy while maintaining my target weight and keeping a healthy balanced diet.
Today's spice sachet is Chicken Curry Seasoning. Now I will definitely use that one.
The site says:
Can be used as a dry rub or marinade Delicious in creamy kormas and rice dishes
Makes vegetarian dishes currylicious
Nothing that other brands don't do but it will be useful and has a tasty looking list of ingredients
Yesterday's meal photos:
Breakfast was fruit taken on the run. An apple and a banana. No photos :-)
Stayed on plan all day and felt happy about it.
Today's meal plans:
B: fruit and yogurt
SW: syn free
L: beef cassoulet, croutons
When I slow cooked the beef using the SW recipe, I ended up with a lovely sauce which contained little onions, tomatoes and pepper plus chopped tomato and beefy stock.
I syphoned off some of the liquid for yesterday's gravy but have quite a lot of soft deliciousness left so I'm going to add some shredded beef (leftovers) and some white beans and call it cassoulet! Why not?

SW: one healthy extra B for the croutons and the rest is syn free
D: cheeseburger pasta
This is a Slimming Eats recipe. Here's the link:
And there's a very handy 'jump to recipe' button so you don't have to trawl through all the adverts and bumph unless you really want to. Good for Siobhan.
SW: let's call it two healthy extra As for cheese (for convenience) but the rest looks to be syn free.
Exercise: it's small group circuits today.
Summary:
two healthy extra As
one healthy extra B
this appears to be a syn free day
For information:
The Slimming World structure:
While following the plan, you can have . . .
Any amount of speed and free food - BUT try to have a third of your plate as speed food as a sub for free food, NOT as well as . . . Eat to satisfaction, not to stuffed-ness!
Two healthy extra As (calcium) and one healthy extra B (fibre) - details in the SW pack and on the SW web site/app.
Between five and fifteen syns-worth of synned food - again, details in the pack, site and app. They are a limit to stay within, not a target to hit.
As a target member, I can also have . . .
Another two healthy extras each day
Another fifteen syns up to three times each week
Another fifteen syns up to three times each week
BUT - only if I need/want to. It's a limit, not a target
. . . with the ultimate aim of not needing to count healthy extras, syns, etc at all but just knowing and eating well instinctively.
