Simple Soya Chilli
my kids hate anything spicy but will eat this and it is really quick and easy to make not to mention low in syns.
1 packet of Sainsburys soya mince with onions and gravy (1.5syns for whole pack)
1 tin of baked beans
chilli powder.
Make up the soya as directed. Add tin of baked beans. Add chilli powder to taste. Serve with rice.
This served 2 adults and 2 children in my house with a little left over and it was only 1.5 syns for the whole lot. The soya mix is also brilliant for cottage pie. You can make a whole cottage pie for 1.5 syns.

I was really good today. Had friends over and cooked everyone cheese on toast and didn't eat any.
Agreed I love Quorn. I tried to turn veggie 6 years ago and couldnt do it because nowhere stocked decent supplements.
Tried again 2 years ago and am still veggie am addicted to quorn and its good for you too.
I was vegetarian for 14 years up until last year. I remember the first time I tried quorn, about 12 years ago. It was in burgers, they had little chunks of quorn in as well as other things. I loved it straight away especially after 2 years of soya - lol.
When on WW I used to stock up on the Chicken Tonight sauces when tey were on offer. Really easy to make a meal with one of those, some quorn and some rice. A lot of those sauces are really low fat too.
