Thanks for all the replies to me on this thread. Its veggie power!! ( Sounded better in my head!)
I have pinched several of the recipes already AND WILL BE LOOKING FOR THAT CHIP TRAY IN Sainsbury's! Is anyone on twitter? I am following a few vegan links on there- such @gourmetvegan @vivavegans and @vegansaurus Some brilliant tips on there.

Today is a day off for me as I booked annual leave I have lazily watched the first episode in the new series of true blood and set up my new sky broadband and i am wandering into Argos to buy a mixer- its a great offer if anyone is interested £129.99 for a Kenwood KM280.

Rubyroo, the sad part is I realised afterwards where I got it from... Puppy power, scrappy doo! :break_diet:

 

[Barbette]

That's not sad, that's awesome. I loved scooby doo

 

[RUBYROO]

love it !! It could be our catchphrase .... teeheee !! xx

 

[misswolves]

Well my husband says my first attempt at hoummous ( out of SW magazine this month)tastes like wood chippings!

Anyone got a decent recipe? Mine is past redemption.

i have been into Aldi today, for the first time in my life on the search for syn free toffee yogurt. I found a brand that looked syn free- Brooklea. Sadly it is 3 syns ;( but 3 lovely sins

 

[joedenise]

I prefer to make proper hummous by adding 1 Tbs of tahini - it's only one syn for the whole lot!

[Barbette]

I add tahini as well, it doesn't taste right otherwise.
Sometimes it's worth 3 syns to have something nice, if you don't treat yourself you end up cheating
