I'm feeling loads better now after a couple of days back on the healthy food again, thank goodness.
What I ate today:
Syn free.
A simple lunch - grated croot mixed with hm hummus (from the freezer). toasted Med bread and some salad veg, followed by an easy peeler.
One healthy extra B and two syns for the bread plus four syns for the hummus.
I used some edamame beans from the freezer rather than opening a whole can of mixed beans.
The roasted veg was leftovers from yesterday.
One syns for evoo in the roasted veg, two syns for evoo in the casserole, one syn for thickening granules and half an A for soft cheese (not officially counted as an A nowadays but . . .)
Summary:
half a healthy extra A
one healthy extra B
ten syns
Tomorrow's plans.
B: fruit, yogurt and seeds
L: soup (from freezer) and focaccia; fruit
D: bubble and squeak patty with the creamy sauce from dinner today, veg, bulgur wheat; fruit
Exercise: personal training
The extra bit.
Simple chicken casserole
Ingredients:
some evoo (syn what you use)
one small onion or shallot, chopped
half a good sized chicken breast fillet, cut into chunks.
three mushrooms, quartered
a handful of edamame beans (mine were frozen)
good chicken stock plus some stock powder if wanted
garlic granules
thickening granules (I found two level tsps was fine for two portions)
some low fast soft cheese to melt in (which I called a healthy A although it isn't really nowadays)
Method.
Heat the evoo and soften the onion.
Add the chicken and fry until almost cooked through,
Add the mushrooms and the edamame beans and mix well.
Add some garlic granules (to taste)
Add the chicken stock plus extra stock powder if needed (taste and see).
Bring to a boil and simmer gently until the chicken and beans are cooked.
Add the thickening granules and stir well.
Add the soft cheese and stir until all melted.
Check seasoning - I didn't use any extra seasoning.
Serve with veg of choice.
I had half the sauce left for another meal.
