Syn Free Tagliatelle with Steak & Mushroom Sauce

I’m a big fan of quick, syn free, tasty pasta dishes! They’re comforting, filling and healthy, and this one is no different. With a smooth and silky sauce, big chunks of lean rump steak, and melt in the mouth mushrooms, it’s one of those dinners you can have again and again and not get bored! Much like my Syn Free Carbonara and Syn Free Cajun Chicken Pasta, this dish uses the age old trick of egg and yogurt to make a thick glossy sauce. The beautiful thing about this method of making a sauce is that it doesn’t use any Healthy Extras and it’s still 100% syn free! This leaves you free to use your HexA choice on something else throughout the day, and helps keep your daily meal plan even more interesting!

In my opinion, winter is for big hearty meals like pasta, stew and soup, because they make you warm from the inside out. When I’ve had a stressful day at work, it’s dark and freezing outside, and I forgot to put the heating on (again) at home, the last thing I want to do is come home and eat a salad! Obviously I still make sure to eat plenty of speed food, and loads of protein, but the beauty of Slimming World is that you can still make the world feel alright with carbs. If you’d have told me before I stared Slimming World that I would have been chowing down on big pasta dishes and still losing weight effectively I’d probably  have laughed in your face! After all, we spend our lives being told that to lose weight you have to cut out this and that, usually carbs and sugar, completely, otherwise we will spend the rest of our lives overweight and unhappy. Now, there are so many things wrong with that…mainly the direct correlation that we have shoved in our faces from day dot about how we look and how we feel, and the idea that cutting out any food group completely (unless for medical reasons) is in any way sustainable and healthy! It’s not…don’t do it. That’s all there really is to say!

Don’t get me wrong, this meal wasn’t all one big carb fest. It’s still packed with mushrooms and onions for speed foods, and the Muscle Foods rump steak is the best quality protein around! Totally lean, really tender, full of flavour, and not pumped full of additives the Muscle Foods steak is the only one I use.

    Yum, this sounds so tasty and easy. Definitely my kind of food! Totally with you on the only keeping healthy food in the house thing. I pretty much don't buy biscuits/cake/crisps/processed food etc. and so I rarely eat them, or if I do I have to make it first - and surely cooking burns up lots of calories, no? ;-) Eb x

      Thanks Eb! I know what you mean, it's got to the point where my boyfriend has to actively hide any bad food he brings home from me. It's so unfair on him...if he gets chocolate for his packed lunch and I see it he doesn't stand a chance to getting to it! Oh well, he knew what he was getting himself into :) I'm going to go with your one on the cooking vs calories issue! x

    Your steak and mushroom tagliatelle looks delicious. It's so refreshing to see someone saying carbs are ok in moderation, I love pasta. I'm try to eat healthily and struggle with my weight ( I had knee replacements over a year ago now and I can't do the amount of exercise I used to be able to do). This recipe is perfect for me - pinned for later :-)

      Thank you Sarah! I LOVE carbs and simply can't do without them, which is what makes Slimming World so perfect for me! You can still eat pasta, rice, bread and potatoes just in moderation. It's a winner in my books! I've always struggled with my weight, and no matter how much I try I'm just not a gym bunny. A lifestlye plan that means I can basically eat the same as ever (with a few tweaks) and still lose weight sounded way too good to be true, but that was almost 4 stone ago so I'm pretty pleased! Thanks for commenting, I'm glad you like the recipe and thanks for pinning/tweeting it! :)
