Your meal looks lush Jess yummy. Ive never tried asparagus, is it easy to cook? Your dessert looks amazing how did you layer it and did u freeze it at all? I have all the ingredients to make one - might be an idea for afters tomorrow night nom nom

 

[Jess<3]

thank you! Asparagus, these were roasted for about 15mins, or boil for like 7mins. easy really... Dessert used a ramekin dish, filled with clingfilm. melted alpen lights then but in bottom dish. mixed total 0% yog (about 3/4 pot) with chocolate sachet add on top dish. fridge for about 2 hours or even 30mins would be ok. tip upside down on plate & take clingfilm off

Yummy deffo will give it a try i love trying new things lol

 

[Jess<3]

I love randomly making things like that,... other month did jelly with lots cut up grapes, apple an orange in. was so refreshing!

Lol ive never eaten so well. This time last year I was still eating loads of processed rubbish and sweets, choccy crisps etc. I still have them in moderation and always syn them. The difference is now I dont feel like i NEED them. I just pick up some fruit or something healthy

 

[Jess<3]

Know what you mean. When i moved in with hubby when we got married (he was in army so married then moved in!) all we ate was processed foods. Neither knew how to cook proper foods. except Rob did know how to make spag bol or lasgne but they were sooo unhealthy lol. Now i do have chocolate/crisps as syns to use them up or when felt needed something naughty... Its amazing how easy it is to cook healthy food once you know how.
Im glad i dont eat like we used to, Id of been about 5stone heavier than when i started SW. makes me feel sick with the stuff we ate, pizzas, chips, chicken nuggets, ready meals etc. x

 

[Texty_F]

Yeh ditto - I still cant educate my son though he eats loads of rubbish for convenience ie pot noodles, fried stuff etc. He likes me to buy frozen beef grillsteaks, when he cooks them he pan fries them in oil, then when I come to clean the frying pan its inches thick in fat it turns my stomach.

I try to get him to eat at least 5 out of 7 nights healthy stuff. Hes 23 and still likes his junk food what can I do lol I cant force him to eat what I eat

 

[Jess<3]
