Thanks, Jen
ooh I am looking forward to trying some of these!
Can I ask how you make the gravy syn free for the lamb meatballs (is it a bovril gravy?)
I am planning to do sweet & sour pork in my slow cooker this week, as mentioned spag bol works really well
I was also thinking a minestrone soup or leek & potato soup would work well for Green or EE
I look forward to trying out some recipes & sharing any I can think of

1 beef brisket joint, 1 tin Batchelor's fat free condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 tin water, sliced onion. Bung it all in and cook on low for 8-9 hrs or on high 5-6 hrs or until meat falls apart. If you are able, flip the joint over halfway through cooking.
The soup is 7 syns but I'm waiting to hear back from my C if you have to count the full 7 as you leave most of it in the pan if you don't use it as gravy (I used a little of it with the onion to spoon over the meat so allowed a couple of syns for it).

Bolognese sauce
Hi
I had a slow cooker for xmas too - have been using it loads as wanted one for ages!
First thing I cooked was a bolognese - just finely chopped onion, carrot, garlic and celery, added mince (not browned) and tinned toms and loads of herbs. Also a bit of balsamic vinegar.
Cooked this overnight - 8 hours on low (during the day I'm out for about 11 hours so would be too long) then reheated in a pan. It is a bit liquidy because you can't reduce it like a normal sauce with the lid on, but can when reheating.
Really nice authentic Italian bolognese yum yum

Slimming World Beef Goulash With Tagliatelle (good for slow cookers)
Taken from Slimming World magazine Jan/feb 2010 Pg 27 Extra easy plan.
Serves 4 (although we did this for 6 people)
This is a great recipe for your slow cooker because you can literally just chuck all the ingredients into your slow cooker and let it work its own magic. So its great for those that work!
My family and guest (who was a child) gave this a 5 out of 5 thumbs up! It was extremely delicious and rich and full of flavour. It will definitely be done again. Kris cooked the sauce and I did the pasta and steamed veg.
Ingredients and preparation :
Goulash:
Fry light
1Ib 8oz/681g Braising steak all fat removed, cut into chunks
Lrg onion, roughly chopped
397g mushrooms sliced
2 cloves garlic crushed
1 1/2 tsp Paprika, (pinch to to garnish)
283g jar flame grilled roasted peppers in vinegar drained and chopped (tip: you can buy these in the 99p store!)
1 level tbsp tomatoe purée
2 tbsp bovril concentrate
Serving with:
400g dried tagliatelle
1/2 savoy cabbage shredded (steamed, we did brocolli as well)
4 tbsp very low fat natural fromage frais
For slow cooker, just chuck everything into for the Goulash into your slow cooker and cook on a slow heat all afternoon!
Casserole version: Heat your frying pan with frylite and fry of the beef til brown to seal, then put it in a casserole dish.
Spray the pan again with frylite and cook the onions then add the mushrooms and garlic for about 5 mins then add the paprika in the last minute, then add this to the casserole dish. then add the peppers, tomatoe puree, Bovril and 1/2 pint boiling water and stir over the heat til until simmering then cover and cook in the oven for two hours, stirring occasionally. Gas Mark 4 or 180C (we did this lower as we have a fan oven)
Serve with the tagliatelle and cabbage on the side, and add the tbsp of fromage fraise on top of each serving of Goulash.
