how to convert a recipe into a slimming world one?

[harrysmummy]

hiya all,

so asked my hubby to get me a slimming world mag when he went shopping yesterday and he came back and gave me a rosemary conley one (dont know how he got confused on that one! lol) so anyway was having a flick through and some of the recipes sound really nice and was wondering how do we convert it from being a normal recipe into a synned or syn free recipe?

many thanks

Just look through the ingredients list and anything that should be synned either replace it (for example of a recipe calls for cream will fat free natural yoghurt or fromage frais be sufficient) or Syn it up. Most recipes can be made slimming world friendly quite easily.

Rosemary Conley recipes are great, as she keeps fat below 4%. The only thing I didn't like was that the protein is very low and carbs high. But I guess they would fit in fairly well with SW.
