Ooh, mushroom risotto! I need the recipe now!!!!
Ah its dead easy and not many points, you only really point the rice.
Put a few sprays of light spray in a pan and add some mushrooms (you can use a little low fat spread or butter if you have the points - it does taste a bit nicer)
fry them off add about 80 grams of risotto rice
mix them together for a bit
add 1 pint of veg stock SLOWLY - you might not use it all
keep stiring constantly untill all the stock is gone and the rice is soft and kinda sticky.
Thats it really, dead easy
I like to add a bit of chicken to it too if its an evening meal.
The best I ever made was bacon, mushroom and sausage risotto! made exactly the same way but you put the sausage and bacon with the mushrooms. They produce natural fat so its delish!! ooh wish I had that one now! lol
(risotto is 12 points per 100
)

12pts per 100g?! that doesnt seem much for so many points
glad to see you're doing well though Jen - really looking forward to friday.. do you know where we're eating? For some reason I'm thinking italian food.. is that just me imagining things? xxx

Aye trust you, 12 points per hundred is wrong! ha ha! I am used to making 200grams so I can have it all week for lunch which is 12 points!! lol!
6 points per hundred, its just slightly more than normal rice.
Dont think we decided where to go for dinner on Friday, I am happy with Italian, Perhaps Frankie and Bennys cause they do loads of different stuff?? Its all very exciting!! I hope Sandy is better so we can all see the show, otherwise I can see us driving her crazy singing show tunes on the way along the road!! lol!!

We are going out for dinner....frankie and bennys!! lol! I drag everyone there because they are so good with diet, all their good stuff is in eating out guide and I can be stuffed and remain in points! The meatball calzone is huge, I rarely finish it and its 15 points, so that does my whole meal!! Then we are going up to a friends house to bring in the bells! I am thinking of driving tho, save points and be able to get home....not sure if thats sad tho! lol
Thank you honey, it should be great. I am still a little unsure of how fair it is that craig gets to be Joseph...he clearly didnt win the show!! Wonder how Lee feels about it all!! I wanted Lewis to win...I wanted to marry Lewis in fact....oh probably said too much again..hey ho! lol

just had a slice of oats and seed bread toasted (1.5 points) and an egg poached a la gordon ramsey, with the whirrling water (1.5 points) Was so yummy, with no butter or other nasty things!! Very impressed with my little 3point breakfast so thought I would share Am in a phase of eating more filling bread but less of it...not sure if thats good. I am usually a half point bread person...think its good tho to feel more full.
