Right... earlier today SW posted on Facebook asking people for tips for holidays!
Most of the 'tips' were along the lines of 'enjoy yourself' and 'forget the diet', which is fine for some people, but there were not enough genuine supportive tips for my liking!
Today I made the Heinz Soup of the Day Fragrant Thai Carrot & Coconut from scratch to compare it to the pre made carton, which is a Healthy Extra B Choice for 200g on Slimming World, as part of the Heinz Souper Fresh Taste Test.

This is a B choice plus 3 syns, taking the overall syns down to 9. Please check the syns on your brand of flour to protect your weight loss. Sift flour and add in two of the eggs, 2 yolks, banana, baking powder, vanilla, and sweetner and mix well. In a separate bowl whisk the whites of the remaining two eggs to stiff peaks. Fold the mixture together and place in a cake tin or loaf tin. My silicone case is 20cm. Bake for 25 minutes at 180° fan. Cut into slices are serve. Divide the syns by the no of slices you get. I cut mine into 4 at 3.5 syns a slice. I served mine with a tsp of cashew butter and flavoured quark for a lovely dessert!

Top with frozen fruit - frozen is better, as it add moisture to the oats. Leave overnight in the fridge. Enjoy!
