Has anyone got any good slimming world recipes they can pass on. I get stuck on green days as I don't like pasta or quorn. Ta.

slimming world chips (make as usual then spray with frylite and shove in the oven!). On a green day you can have as many as you like - team up with beans and egg and you can even have bacon as your healthy extra!

There are loads of salads and rices you can make on green days too! Look on the slimming world site - theres loads of ideas!

Have you tried Quorn mince or just some Quorn product like sausages? If you make a chilli or spag bol with the mince you can't even tell it's not meat as the herbs and spices give the flavour. I suprised myself when I had it at a friend's house, I couldn' t tell the difference!
