I thought I'd do a bit of a 'What I ate in a week' post today but with a Slimming World twist as I'm at the stage where I need a bit of extra motivation to keep at it and I feel like this could do the trick!I haven't included everything I've eaten though, you're just going to get my evening meals. I've done a week's worth of Slimming World packed lunches in the past though if you want to check that out.Day one - SaturdayI made a homemade Slimming World Doner Kebab for tea on Saturday but because everyone was at the football, I left it on the keep warm function of the slow … [Read more...]
Five ways to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs….
Did you know that a hard-boiled egg is safe to eat for you to seven days after it's been cooked?* I had no idea that they lasted that long until I started researching some ideas for what leftover hard-boiled eggs could be used for since I shared my post last Monday about how to colour eggs naturally.** According to this post, a hard-boiled egg will last for up to seven days in the fridge as long as the shell is still on it. If you peel it before popping it in the fridge then it's only good for up to five days. **Hard boiling and poaching eggs have shown to be the … [Read more...]
How I meal plan as a working Mum with NO time….
It's been a while since I shared my meal plan on here (or even on my meal planning blog for that matter) so I thought I'd share this week's plan with you and give you a bit of an update on a few changes we've had over the last few months.The last few months have been a bit chaotic with my new job as I've struggled a little bit to fit everything in that I usually do with the slightly longer working days that I have now. I've just about got things back under control now but I've had to change our routine a little bit to accommodate the fact that I'm getting home a bit later and … [Read more...]
Is an Instant Pot worth the money?
I wanted an Instant Pot for a good year or so before I actually bought one but even though I kept adding it to my basket on Amazon, I always took it back out again as I really wasn't sure if the Instant Pot would be something I'd use regularly or whether it would end up gathering dust like my breadmaker is at the moment. I eventually bought one so today, I'm going to answer the question 'Is an Instant Pot worth the money?'First of all, let me tell you exactly what an Instant Pot is just in case you don't know - it's essentially an electric pressure cooker which speeds up cooking by … [Read more...]
Instant Pot Mushroom Risotto (Slimming World Syn Free)….
This recipe for Instant Pot mushroom risotto is my new favourite meal!* It's super tasty, super cheap, easy to make and as if that wasn't enough, it's also syn free so perfect for anyone following Slimming World.*(I know, I said this last week too but I'm very fickle and easy to please. ;-))Every time I share an Instant Pot recipe on here or over on Instagram, someone asks me what an Instant Pot is and I promise I'm going to write a post about it but basically it's a pressure cooker that also moonlights as a slow cooker, a rice cooker, a steamer, a yoghurt maker with saute and … [Read more...]
How to make homemade chicken stock in your slow cooker….
A few weeks ago, I made homemade chicken stock in my slow cooker for the first time in ages so I thought I'd share it with you.It's not hard to make and the results are amazing so I'm not sure why or when I stopped making it on a more regular basis but now that I've made it again and realised how much better food tastes with homemade chicken stock rather than when it's made with stock cubes then I'm pretty sure I'll be making it again... and again...When I cook a chicken for Sunday Lunch I can get enough chicken from it to do that one meal and then one other meal which just needs … [Read more...]
