This Slimming World friendly version will cost you only 1 Health Extra A (HEA) and is packed full of flavour. Please note this recipe makes 2 portions, otherwise it will cost you 2…

Couscous Fritter
I love couscous as an alternative to rice when I’m slimming, but sometimes a bowl of couscous can be just a little bit boring. If you are following the Slimming World diet plan this recipe is free. Although if you buy flavoured packet couscous these are usually synned, this recipe uses plain dried couscous. Ingredients…
Calzone
A great recipe for those trying to eat more healthily. On the Slimming World diet plan this will cost you one of your Healthy Extra B’s (HEB) and a Health Extra A (HEA). This recipe is just for a plain cheese calzone but feel free to fill it with whatever diet friendly fillings you like….
Mexican Potatoes
I love Mexican food, but avoided it once I started my diet as it’s quite rich and usually loaded with cheese. I developed this recipe as a treat one evening, and it will cost you only 1 of your Healthy Extra A’s (HEA). This recipe will make 2 portions and takes around 50 minutes to…
Cinnamon Pie Filos
This recipe makes 6 cinnamon pie filos so they work out at around 2.5Syns each. I used Theo’s Fresh Filo Pastry Sheets, but the Syn values seem to be quite similar on other brands for the 20g sheets. Ingredients: 1 Small Apple (50g) (0.75Syn) 25g Raisins (3.5Syns) 1.5tsp Mixed Spice (Cinnamon & Nutmeg) 1tbsp Sweetener…
Spicy Rice Burrito
This recipe was created one afternoon when I wanted something a little more substantial than my usual salad or wrap. So I thought why not add some rice to the mix and have a lunch that is both filling and full of flavour. If you are on the Slimming World diet plan this recipe will…
Duchess Potatoes
Since starting my diet I found I was eating the same sorts of foods and getting pretty bored or boiled and mashed potatoes. For something a little different I made Duchess Potatoes and they were an instant hit. On the slimming world diet plan these are free, although if you add cheese to them you…
Scotch Eggs
I love scotch eggs, and avoided them when I started dieting. These were an idea from my Slimming World group, but I wanted to try making a runny yolk scotch egg. So I tried and tested a couple of techniques and these worked perfectly. This recipe will make 6 scotch eggs and the lot of…
Cinnamon Waffles / Pancakes
This recipe requires a waffle maker, alternatively it will make pancakes if you want to simply make the batter and then heat it up in a frying pan. On the Slimming World Plan this will use up 1 of your Healthy Extra B’s (HEB). It’s great with fruit and yogurt and is the most substantial…
Sugar Free Meringue
This recipe takes a while to cook but after the initial 15 minutes prep you pretty much just leave them in the oven to cook so it isn’t quite as difficult as it first sounds. Plus it makes plenty so you can use them in multiple deserts. This recipe makes much more than 10 meringues…
