Steak and Blue Cheese Wrap

I seem to get into a rut every so often with what I eat, cooking the same things over and over so I’ve set myself a challenge to try think of new, tasty meals that are quick to make

When I lived in America, one of my favourite salads was steak and blue cheese so I’ve made it into a delicious wrap for lunch by using thin slices of  roast beef and pan frying red onions and baby peppers with frylite until they’re starting to brown and putting the meat in, making sure it’s all lovely and golden before popping on a HEB wrap and sprinkling with just a little blue cheese from my HEA to make a syn free wrap

It’s a bit like a philly cheese steak without the sauce but absolutely packed full of flavour and perfect for lunch.

Just a different idea and super quick and easy although I may have overfilled the wrap!!!

Enjoy!

Syn Free Chicken Burrito Style Wraps

These syn free wraps are great for using up leftover chicken and rice, as with a lot of the things I cook the recipe is forgiving and you can pretty much use any chicken and rice and make they as spicy (or not) as you like

 

The key is the base layer of passata so they don’t stick to the dish, apart from that it’s pretty much whatever you like

For me they make a great light lunch and I’ll have two if it’s a main meal but the extra wrap has to be synned.  You can of course have one wrap with extra filling on the side as that’s syn free

If you’d like to try my syn free chicken burrito style wraps the recipe is here

Chicken Stir Fry with Lime and Ginger

Anyone who knows me knows I do not love my veggies and I can often eat food without rather than force down a salad but oddly I love a good stir fry.  My Dad makes the best stir fry out there but he sadly doesn’t live in my house so today I was brave and made my own

I share this only because it shows exactly what 25 minutes and using stuff from the fridge can give you. 

This is a chicken breast, the veggies from my fridge, lots of fresh ginger, lime juice and oyster sauce.  Now had I left it there it would have been syn free but I did add a few cashew nuts so they need counting but it’s worth it.


There's no right or wrong with this meal, if you have any meat and veggies this is such a great way to use them, if you'd like to give it a go the ingredients and method I used for this syn free (apart from the optonal cashew nuts) are here

Time to raid the fridge!

Enjoy

Mini Pizza on Wraps

 I usually make pizzas with the large Weight Watcher wraps as they’re a HEB but this time I decided to try two smaller wraps as I thought it would be more crispy and I’m right, definitely keep a better crunch especially in the middle

 
These mini pizzas were topped with syn free spicy chicken, red onion, sweetcorn and cheese served with a syn free salad with my favourite edamamme beans…absolutely perfect and doesn't feel like I'm missing out on pizza!

If you’d like to try them the Slimming World friendly pizza recipe is here, just substitute your two small wraps for the single large

Enjoy!
