Magic Pancakes (makes 6-12 depending on size of cookie cutter, type of yogurt, type of Oats and number of eggs used) 1 sachet of Oats So Simple (or your HEB Oats allowance)1 syn free yogurt such as Muller Light (try vanilla flavour first before experimenting) Make 'Magic Porridge' by mixing the oats and the yogurt and leaving in the fridge overnight. Next day, mix 2-3 eggs into the yogurt and oat mix thoroughly and add a couple of tablespoons' sweetener. Then, get a hot not-stick frying pan, add frylight Place your cookie or pastry cutter in the pan and gently pour a little mixture in until it fills the base of the cutter. Wait a minute for the base to harden then remove the cookie cutter. After another min or so (use your judgement) flip carefully with a fish slice or spatula. serve with fresh fruit and syrup (syns) ideas are endless and you could also make savoury pancakes if you used natural yogurt 
The cheese pie is the recipe from the sw mag a few months ago and the pork chops are cooked in soy sauce, honey and ginger
mini quiche, eggs and cottage cheese with peppers and onion and bacon and cheddar baked in silicone cases

Spaghetti Carbonara
Taken from the Cook Yourself Thin series. This is soooo yummy!!! Use your judgement with the water and keep adding a little at a time and stir well each time until you get the creamy consistency that you like.
I don't know if parma ham/prosciutto is synned (it was when I did SW a couple of years ago but I can't find it listed on the SW USA website). I removed all the fat from mine before cooking. You could always use extra lean thin sliced bacon instead.
Serves 2
2 syns and 1 Hex A for whole dish (if parma ham is free)
METHOD
How to cook tasty pasta carbonara with herbs and spices
1. Place the onion in a large, deep non-stick frying pan with 150ml water and bring to the boil. Lower the heat to medium, cover and cook for five minutes (see below).
2. Remove the lid, turn up the heat and cook for two to three minutes or until the water has evaporated.
3. Add the olive oil and the Parma ham and cook for three to four minutes until browned, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and keep warm.
4. Meanwhile, cook the linguine according to the packet instructions, adding 1/2 a teaspoon of salt to the cooking water.
5. In a large bowl, mix the egg yolks, Parmesan, herbs and Tabasco.
6. Drain the pasta when cooked, reserving three to four tablespoons of the cooking water.
7. Mix together the pasta, egg yolks and Parmesan mixture with the reserved cooking liquid, the onion and Parma ham. Season well. Serve immediately with a green salad.
Tip: If an onion doesn't need to be browned but just cooked, then use water instead of oil and simmer until tender.

Chop some chicken fillets up, marinaded them with dry coriander, tikka masala powder, garlic and chilli grinder or just use a bit of
Chilli powder for some spice, then for the potatoes I more or less used exactly the same, I just experiment with all the powders in my cupboard lol! really nice meal x

Just to let you know, without the cutters it works too. You scoop them into a pre heated pan and they instantly solidify on the bottom. I always do mine this way and they come out perfect!..
