Hey hun :) Food for today is looking good!

What were the magic porridge pancakes like? I've seen a few things on here but have been a bit unsure whether or not to try them as the reviews seem very mixed.


Hope you have a great day! xx

I love them! To me they taste just like those ones you can buy ready made to grill- can't taste the porridge at all! Here is how i do them:

Mix 35g porridge oats with 1 mullerlite (so far i've tried a vanilla version and a toffee one) and leave in the fridge overnight.

The next day, mix in 3 eggs and a tablespoon of sweetener (or to taste) Mix really well so it's all smooth!

Spray a pan with fry light until hot, place in a metal cookie cutter and spoon in the batter- I would say mine are about 1cm thick. When you think it has set, remove the cutter and allow to cook for a couple of minutes. Flip over with a metal spatula and cook the other side. Voila! :D A good tip is to keep spraying fry light when you flip over or for each pancake..just judge how it's going!

My first one was rubbish but you get used to making them..using the above ingredients, generally that makes 8 pancakes so i share with someone :) xx

Oh cool, I might give them a try then! I love magic porridge anyway, so I'm sure I'd like them.

I'd just seen a few people say they were like lumpy omelettes, it put me off a bit lol!

Hiya, thanks for stopping by, a few of us North Easties here! I've tried a couple of variations for the ferreo rocher but the following way i found the nicest:

Using a food processor, blitz 8 scan bran into very fine crumbs/dust! Transfer to a bowl and add 4 level tbsp of Nutella, 1 level tbsp of Golden Syrup and 1 tbsp water. Mix ingredients well until it binds together. Spoon mixture into small muffin cases and place in the fridge for an hour or so. Get them out of the fridge, then roll into balls :)

I tried making them into balls before putting them into the fridge..a messy disaster hehe!

Hi Hun,

Pizza hut can be done slimming world style, if you dont like the chilli pasta I would suggest getting salad which is refillable and there are loads of syn free stuff salad lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, sweetcorn, carrot, beetroot, pickled onions, tomato based pasta sauce, gherkins, and loads more from what I remember. There is stuff to add that you can be carefull with like potato salad, coleslaw,dressings. Its my kinda thing, of if you wanted to choose a main dish you get free salad with it. I think they have lower calorie pizza's now (you could share with your friend) Main thing, ENJOY whatever you have and have a lovely time :) do you have a recipe for those chickpea dahl bites?? Look good! xx
 
Thanks hun :) I'm gonna have a look on the Pizza Hut website later and see what they have to offer! Wouldn't mind using a couple of days worth of syns if I could find a nice pasta or anything, we shall see! Will deffo be having salad too.

Chickpea dahl bites are so yummy :)

Make up 1 packet of bachelors savoury rice as directed (I used mild curry flavour) and add 1 tin on chickpea dahl. Some morrisons stock one made by Sundar- my local one doesn't so I use Asda's own brand. Add 3 eggs and mix well. Spoon the mixture into muffin cases and bake until set. Give them a go- all completely free too! Xx
 
Oh I shall try them hun, thanks for the recipe, I actually have some chickpea dahl in the cupboard. Oh yes save some syns for your pizza hut meal, also you will be doing plenty of body magic ice skating :) not been skating in years!!
