Hi cowboy. I have the egg muffins warm- 40 seconds in the microwave reheats them nicely. I usually do bacon mushroom and onion ones and tomato and basil. Eating some now as we speak!

Hi! Egg questions :)

Can I have a recipe for the egg muffins please? And do they freeze? I'm thinking they may go down well for the 10 month old as well as me :)

Scrambled eggs...I used to make lovely scrambled eggs, wi lots of butter! What are you guys putting in them, just milk?

I just use eggs and season them well. They're not as nice as lovely buttery eggs but needs must... I tried whisking quark in. It gave them a better texture I think. I usually have cheese on top as a healthy extra so that makes up for a lot

I make egg muffins by frying the veg I want in them in fry light, dividing them into a silicone muffin tray then pouring over beaten eggs (I'd use 8 for six muffins) - interested to see what others do and good call on using them for the baby! Know what we're having for breakfast now....

B - egg muffins with onions, mushrooms, red peppers and spinach on the side
S - 2 x hifi bars HeB, advent calendar choc 2 Syns
L - roasted asparagus and leek pasta 1 Syn
S - yogurt and satay mad
D - tarka dahl with cauliflower rice

Err satsumas - I like satay but wouldn't say I'm mad for it.

Oh..today's food..

B...2x hifi light bars (hexb)
L...mixed veg soup and fruit
S...lemon and poppy seed cake from graze box (4 syns)
D...jacket potatoes, salad and cheese, ham and cheese (hexa) omelette.

I mentioned the graze light box at group yesterday and that some of the boxes are on the syns online and others aren't, but used 20cals = 1 syn, she said that wasn't official and shouldn't be using it. Hmm :( I think if anything doing that would overestimate the syns because it doesn't take into account any calories coming from free food does it?

What are you cooking the egg muffins on pis? And do they freeze? I've got a normal muffin tin, hoping spraying it with fry light would work.

3 off!!

I haven't tried freezing them, they'd keep for a couple of days in the fridge though. I cook them in the oven for about 20 mins on 180C.

20 calories per Syn is a perfectly good calculation. I doubt the company line is to encourage it as it means anyone can work it out without paying membership fees

Make that 25 minutes - not quite set yet....

I use the SW quiche recipe as I can get the 'cheese' hit from cottage cheese without the calories. Apparently you can't freeze them but I can eat 4 a day quite easily

Question - if I'm doing an SP day is it bad form to eat sushi (5syns) because the rice is part of the fee food allowance - ?

B - Satsuma, coffee (with HExA milk all day)
L - sushi (2), diet cola, pear
D - bolognese with plenty of speed veg
S - apple, caramel hi fi (HExB), Roses sweets x 2 (5), tea

Can't decide whether to make this an SP day but I suspect I've buggered it up with the sushi so I think I won't, I'll have pasta with the bolognese sauce and skip the extra HExB.

Egg muffins-
Fry light the muffin tray. I fry bacon pieces and put them with mushroom and onion in the muffin tray. Put tomato and fresh basil in the other half.
Beat6 eggs with 2 tbsp milk and salt and pepper. Pour over the top. Oven at 180 for around 15 mins. Makes 10 small ones.

They usually keep a couple of days in fridge. Haven't tried freezing them.

Well done blondie

Is there more nutritional information on the graze box as could use the syn calculator online if have the carbs fat and protein?

SP day
B Omelette with pak choi and mushrooms
Satsumas
L weetabix, just fancied something carby before a run! HeA milk and HeB1
Sn cold beef and tomatoes
D lamb Rogan Josh, recipe off sw website with added chickpeas, broccoli, roast courgette, aubergine and tomatoes, and sw onion bhajis had in freezer (3syns). Mint in low fat yog dip
Might have baked apple HeB2 later if hungry, I get home at 10pm after a dance class and usually want something, so it's baked ready.
Oh and one taster choc in hotel chocolate while Xmas shopping. Was tiny, but worth it! will allocate 3 syns .

Not sure about the sushi Oriana, guess you'd need the old red day syn value! Or try working out the syns as if contains no free food on the calculator?!

Well done Blondie!

That's great they warm up so quick so would be ideal for me in the morning, I'm always running around like a headless chicken so if I can't get it ready in under a min and eat in the car I don't usually have time!
