Sorry to interrupt Janet but I'm sure I saw some in Morrisons tonight and it was dairy I will double check over the weekend for you and if I can I will take a photo.

 

[janetelizabeth]

You jump straight in Chug....
No, that's the problem I don't want dairy...have been looking for sheep or goat Ricotta. It was easy when I lived in Spain...loads of the stuff but I can't find any. I've looked in Morrisons, Sainsburys & Waitrose. I suspect Asda's is the same...
Dairy gives me very sore eyes so I try and avoid it whenever possible.
Thanks Chug for trying to help.

Sorry mine was just normal ricotta from tesco . I did look at the label but I cant tell what sort it is.

My problem is lactose so low sugar means low lactose which is ok for me

Some sort of pasta ending up being a butternut squash mushroom spinach ricotta canelloni dish my husband sort of made up with salad leaves from the garden and tomatoes from Tesco so 2 hex a

Followed by an amazing find in the frozen section of Sainsbury a dairy free lemon cheesecake by a company called food heaven. I already get their blueberry ice cream from a deli.
All their desserts are suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It was perfect

10 syns probably and well well worth it

Total 17 syns

I have no idea I am aasuming it was standard ricotta I looked on the tub and it didnt say. It was just ricotta from Tesco nothing special.

Sorry

Food today is a non SW day which is usual for a Saturday for me nowadays

Brunch was a SW acti fry up with potatoes freshly pulled from my container garden this morning.

With a white ciabatta roll

This afternoon will be some freshly popped popcorn done in my air popper then we have a 40th party later so food is undetermined. No drink as I am driving so it might not be too bad.

Syns so far just the roll and 2 slices quorn bacon

 

[janetelizabeth]

Food looked good...enjoy the party!!

 

[chug]

Enjoy the party and do plenty of dancing.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

The party was great last night and the band was really really good.

I had some veggie quiche boiled potatoes cous cous salad white bread roll and a naughty slice of chocolate cake.

Which doesn't sound horrendous but my scales say 2lbs on which has really upset me and the food wasn't worth seeing that

I'm glad the party went well.

I hate that when you see the next day you put some weight on I'm always thinking what food did I eat to make me put that on. I'm sure you will loose it though before weigh in.
