I figure that I enjoy the food and I don't feel deprived and I am enjoying cooking the different food. Am I the only one that has a thing for recipe books???
I mean I even went to the lengths of buying the daily mirror throwing away the newspaper (used for cat litter actually) and keeping these very small leaflets which have some yummy recipes in them. I love being inspired to cook and try out new recipes I hate doing the same thing week by week so I have no trouble with changing the food around a bit. I am also like my mum pictured here just before Christmas we LOVE fruit and veg and have no problem eating lots of it.
I love having cooked breakfast on a Saturday it's like a treat but is fine to have as all of it is free except the tomato ketchup. I love having a roast dinner again its free with dry roast potatoes and skin of chicken or fat cut of the meat... you can do my speciality roast beef recipe (see earlier posts).I tried smash pizza for the first time ever yesterday, I kept putting it off thinking it was too strange....but YES it is lovely and there is loads of it. I loved it as an alternative to normal pizza knowing it was generally free with the exception of cooked pineapple which I must ask Lia how many syns it is...
Here is my attempt and here is the recipe...
garlic granules
300ml of hot water
Low fat cheese, grated
Tomato purée
Pineapple
ham
Oregano
Frylight
Method:
Preheat the oven at gas mark 8. Mix up the Smash with 300ml of hot water & garlic granules stirring well until it makes a nice doughy like mixture.
Once it has cooled down cover with clingfilm & roll out onto a tin sprayed with Frylight then peel off clingfilm spray the top with abit of Frylight so it can brown well. Put in the oven on the middle shelf for 30 minutes or until golden brown.Now spread the tomato purée to the edges of the pizza, then top with your pineapple, ham, cheese whatever topping you choose (remember pineapple is cooked it will be syns)
Put back in the oven for a further 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling Mmmmmmm

I also have e thing for recipe books. I was bought, Lorraine Pascale fast fresh and easy which is surprisingly much more SW friendly than The Hairy Dieters which I also received as a gift!
I got hairy bikers too which has n=been borrowed by my parents. Even Jamie oliver's 15 minute meals can be adapted to SW meals/pudding. I tried an ice cream using fat free yogurt, frozen berriesd and sweetener and it came out like sorbet yumm
You can NEVER have too many recipe books in my opinion but then opinions are like noses everyone has one ;)
