Slimming World! #3




I thought I'd share one of my go-to Slimming World recipes as well as my weigh-in results today.

I lost 2lbs at Slimming World last Wednesday and got me a shiny sticker and my half stone certificate! Yay! I feel as though this celebration will be short lived as I've been full of a cold this past week and the chances of me losing anything this time is probably nil. I've just wanted to eat rubbish all week and then I lost my food diary and for the most part it's just gone right out the window! My fault I know I'm just hoping for damage limitation now in that I haven't put on everything I lost. Fingers crossed!  

The mess on a plate in the photo above is Egg, Chip, and Pepper Bake with salad dressed in syn-free dressing. All of which is Free, hooray! I'm sure you can figure the salad out for yourself but for the bake I used 4 desiree potatoes, (I think any kind of potato will do) a red pepper and two eggs.

It is essentially posh egg and chips!

  • Peel spuds and cut into chips
  • Boil for around 15 minutes
  • Pop chips into a casserole dish and spray with Fry-Light
  • Season and pop in the oven (220 degrees/gas mark 9) for around 20 mins 
  • Add sliced peppers and combine with chip and cook for a further 20 minutes
  • In the original recipe you make a few holes in the mixture and crack your eggs inside and put back in the oven until the eggs are done
  • I was trying to make it look good so I fried my eggs separately and I was going to put them on top as I usually break them putting them in the casserole dish
  • This was all in vain as I broke the eggs anyway! But I thought I'd include this alternative method as it is how I did Thanks for reading,

Banana Biccies!




These biscuits are made with just 2 ingredients! I found this recipe on the Blogilates channel on YouTube, where Cassey leads different work outs and recipes. Find her HERE. I thought I'd give it try and share my results with you! 

This recipe is so easy, even I can do it (even though I did break my whizzer, oops!) and it's cheap, clean, eating which I hoping to get more into as I have baby weight to shift and need to eat healthier! If your not familiar with the whole clean eating thing, as I understand it, it's just about eating food that's not processed, that doesn't have ingredients in that have ridiculously long, nonsensical, names that you've never heard of, and making things from scratch so you know exactly what's in it.

So all you need are 2 banana's and a cup of oats!

Cut up banana

Peel and slice your banana's into coins

Take a cup of oats and use a blender to grind them into a finer, almost flour like consistency

Blend your banana's and oats together to create a nice thick, sticky dough (you can mush with your hands here too if you want, I had to as I broke my blender! Take it out the blender first though!)

Blender


Shape your dough into circle, biscuit shapes and place on a greased baking tray.

Bake for 10-15 mins at 180C (350F) Gas Mark 4 (depending on size of biccies!)

Et Voila! Banana biccies! It was so easy you should try it!
