Slimming Queen

Spiced Onions
Serves 4 - 1 syn per serving

Ingredients
1 large or 2 med onions
1/2 tsp of salt
1/2 to 1 tsp of chilli powder
1 tsp of mint sauce*
1 tsp of mixed herbs
3 tbsp of tomato sauce (I used a lower sugar sauce which worked out at 2 syns for 3 tbsps)
1 tbsp of mango chutney (2 syns)

*If your on sw use sugar free mint sauce or 2 drops of mint flavouring. Otherwise you will need to syn this as well. I dont have mint sauce so I used mint flavouring.

Method
1) Chop up the onion into little chunks
2) Add the chilli and the salt to the onions and mix
3) Add the herbs, tomato sauce and mint. Mix well.
4) Finally add the mango chutney and give it a good stir.
5) Put in the fridge for at least 30 mins to let the flavours mature.

Then enjoy! I’m going to have mine with some syn free lamb kebab and chips! x

I managed to put on a pound this week BUT I had my friend’s wedding at the weekend and had so much alcohol, food, wedding cake etc that I’m quite chuffed with just a lb on. I want a loss for next Monday but as of this moment, I have 20 syns to do me until then and I’m going out all day on Sunday. Most probably going to be drinking at night as well.

I am hoping that being good during the week will let me maintain at least. I have 27 days until I am away to Benidorm myself for 3 days and I want to get my 2.5 stone award before then. Fingers and toes crossed!
