I do love a bit of finger food…I love it even more when it’s as low syn as these are! At just 2 syns for the ENTIRE batch (removing the skin before eating of course), one syn per portion if you share them between two, you’re really in for a treat. Not only that, but they’re mega easy to make and pretty speedy too so if you’re fancying some messy finger food at dinner or prepping for some last minute guests Slimming World style then these are perfect!

Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE pizza! It’s basically my spirit animal and probably quite a large part of the reason I gained so much weight in the first place. It’s also my biggest downfall on Slimming World because I just can’t say no when it’s offered to me. That’s why ever since starting on this journey I’ve been coming up with ways to enjoy pizza without going off plan. I made my delicious Syn Free HexB Pizza (with wholemeal bread mix) and have made my own Syn Free Pizza Sauce too, not to mention my Pizza Stuffed Burgers and Pizza Jacket Potatoes, and now I’m back with my Syn Free One Pot Penne Pizza Bake! This is the ultimate in one pot pizza bakes and gives you all of the carb loaded satisfaction of pizza without the guilt! You can watch the video below or read the instructions to find out how to make it! Continue Reading…
This slow cooked chicken and butternut squash curry couldn’t be much simpler! Totally syn free it’s a true ‘dump and run’ recipe, and by that I mean you chuck it all in the slow cooker, give it a bit of a stir and leave it. It genuinely doesn’t require any more stress than that, and whilst you leave it to cook for three hours it probably takes no more than 10 minutes of actual hands on time. Moreover, it’s a seriously cheap recipe and feeds six (or makes six individual portions depending on your set up) for well under £1 per portion. Continue Reading…
Mac & Cheese is one of life’s greatest comfort foods, but as such is usually full of about a billion calories and incredibly high in fat and naughty things. This version however, is the opposite! With all of the same beautiful flavour, delicious melted cheese and smooth, creamy consistency, but totally syn free on Slimming World using your Healthy Extra A, this Syn Free Mac & Cheese which serves two people is a must make recipe, especially now that the weather is colder! As you can see from the video, this couldn’t be a more simple and easy recipe! Continue Reading…
I think I probably do a stir fry about once a week, so I’m always trying to find new and interesting flavour combinations and sauces to create to keep things interesting! This particular stir fry was delicious! The thick, shiny sauce gave it a whole new dimension and it was packed with speed food which made it even more brilliant. You can view the whole recipe video, or use the written instructions below! Continue Reading…
Everyone loves a good takeaway, but some of us can’t get away with eating them very often. That’s why ‘fakeaways’ are the way forward! This particular fakeaway is a new favourite of mine, because Teriyaki sauce is AMAZING! Making a practically syn free version of what is usually quite an unhealthy sauce (1.5 syns per portion when split between two), is a great thing to be able to do as it gives you the choice and control in a potentially damaging situation. When you really fancy a takeaway is when you’re at your most vulnerable, so having a few recipes up your sleeve for recipes that will curb those cravings is a God send! Continue Reading…
