Arsenal 7 TV 42....with extra noms

Well another day on plan ticked off and it has been a good day today. Firstly last nights dinner was gorgeous! If you have not tried mayflower curry yet I would really recommend it. 


Packed full of veggies and it tasted so nice. The whole meal was 7 syns (4 for the mayflower and 3 for the rice). I do try and cook rice from scratch but when Rich is on a late it is easier to chuck in an Uncle Ben's pouch. We had this whilst watching Quantum of Solace and I fancied something sweet afterwards.

Good old banana and custard yoghurt! Love these ones.

So onto today, I actually woke up kinda late for me and pretty hungry. After successfully trying a fried egg over Christmas (yes I've not had one before) I decided to try and make one today. I was successful but it did confirm that we needed new pans.

I had two linda mccartney rosemary and red onion sausages, mushrooms and spaghetti. Of course I also had my coffeh (Rich will get the relevance there).

After breakfast me and Rich faffed around a bit deciding whether we were going to go out to get him a new TV but in the end the decision was made that we would as I had found some new pans in Argos I wanted.

Bargain price of £32.75 and they are lovely non stick ones. I unpacked them then decided it was lunchtime for me so I sat back and had my lunch whilst Rich set up his TV....who'd have thought they'd be so complicated!!

Lunch was gorgeous I had three sweet onion ryvita's (HEB) four dairylea light (HEA) plum tomatos grapes and quorn ham. I really enjoyed this it was so simple but yummy and set me up for the football...

I was not looking forward to the game at all infact I expected us to lose but infact we won 7-3...blooming amazing!! During the first half I was playing with my new nail art kit that Rich's amazing mum got me for christmas and it took some practice but I have black nails with paw prints on...only problem is the paws are pretty small as I need to practice so I will probably play with it again tomorrow and put up a picture.

Once the football was done it was dinner time and we had decided to have hunters chicken/quorn fillet. This dish is gorgeous and so simple.

The quorn fillet is wrapped in quorn ham (Rich had chicken in bacon) and the sauce is 8floz of passata, 4 tbsps balsamic, 1tbsp worcestershire sauce, 3 tbsp sweetener and a tsp of chilli. I topped this with my HEB of cheese. For any veggies reading the worcestershire sauce is not vegetarian but there is a veggie version or you could leave it out. I served this with lots of veg and sw chips. We havn't had this in a while but it is gorgeous so will need to do it again soon.

Syn wise I had only used 3 up to that point on oil so decided that a chocolate fix would be good. 

Good old 5 syn freddo. Rich was nomming on his harribo at the same time and also gave me two of those which I discovered were 1 syn for the both so that takes the day to 9. I am keeping the syns low so I can enjoy my bottle of wine on Monday though whether I will drink it all I do not know. 

So thats me for the day two days back on plan under the belt and lets hope I can continue until weigh in.
