you will need...

Cannelloni tubes
Tinned tomatoes
Passata
Onions and any other veg you fancy for the mixture
Fry light
Beef stock cube (optional)
Cheese
Mince (I used quorn so I could have the extra Hexa for cheese)
I then used ASDA white sauce sachet (just add water) which is 9.5 syns but I was making this recipe for 4 so the syns were split.

Just out of Interest the Schwartz cheese sauce packet mix is only 7 syns, so would save 2.5 syns on the whole recipe, every little syn counts...lol

This one may require milk though, where as the one hayley used is instant, so only water.

Please tell me if I'm wrong though xx

Its does say to use 300ml milk, but i used 1/2 and 1/2 milk and water. and used some of my HEA for it

Does the Asda's one taste ok? with just water??

Yes, the ASDA one tasted fine but it depends if you like packet mixes. I have tried the schwartz one before but you have to add milk to it and I like to keep my HEXa for other things. Although, I might try it next time.

I think the mix works the same way as the just add water pasta and sauces. I didn't look at the ingredients on the back but maybe it contains milk already so you don't have to add it.

Where do you get coconut essence?

big supermarkets stock it - or you can buy the coconut powder (its with the herbs but i only have small tesco and they don't stock), indian supermarkets will stock and failing that I bought mine on ebay for pennies!
