Maz, That would be too much of an imposition. If the book is on sale to the public I can get a copy from an English Book Store that we have in town. Thanks Lindy;-))

Hi Maz, Unfortunately, living in Portugal does not help me at all. That is why I was hoping that there is a book about the diet. Thanks, Lindy;-))

Bev, I have been following this thread with interest. Is there a book that I could buy with this slimming plan? Thanks Lindy;-)

it isnt a case of not mixing them.......more a case of not mixing them in equal amounts!! Give it a go Im sure you will be surprised! Bev

KB You could also do it the other way and have red days where you measure out your pasta/potatoes and count them as an healthy option b Bev

Thats the weird thing about this plan!! I always eat loads more than normally and lose weight....what more can a girl ask for?? Once again congratulations Bev

Maz...that is absolutely brilliant! Well done you must feel dead chuffed! It really is the only diet that has ever worked for me! I love my food and thankfully on this you can eat as much as you want!!

KB You can still have meat but this would have to be weighed out and counted as an healthy option b! It really is a great diet

Paul I only ever use cod! It really is delicious and hard to believe its a slimming world dish! Maz its free on an original day and 9 sins on a green day! These recipes are not including your a or b choice! You are still free to use them! Have you tried the slimming world chips? Delicious on a green day with egg, beans and quorn sausages! Slimming World Chips Medium sized potato Fry Light Salt and Vinegar 1)Preheat oven to gas mark 9/240C/475F. Peel potatoes and slice them into chips 2) Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, add the chips and cook for 4 mins. Drain and leave aside for 10mins 3) Return the chips to the dry saucepan, cover with a lid to roughen up the edges of the chips. 4) Spray a metal baking tray with Fry Light. Put the chips on the tray and spray again with fry light. Bake in the oven for 20-25 mins turning occasionally until golden brown on all sides Serve with salt and pepper........lovely! Make sure you shake the chips as roughing up the edges is important to the texture

That fish sounds nice - might have to give that one a whirl - reminds me of the blackened catfish I had in Florida - it'll probably be cod though lol

Maz sorry for the delay Ive just got in from work! I will sort you some recipes including sin values etc and put them on a thread for you in the morning! Bev

No probs Lindy...Hope you enjoy them! Bev

Thanks Bev, I now have two new dishes to try on the weekend! ;-))))

Lindy! Cajun Griddled Fish 1 tbsp paprika half tsp dried onion powder half tsp garlic salt half tsp ground cumin half tsp cayenne pepper half tsp ground black pepper 1 tsp dried thyme 4 6oz skinless white fish fillets (cod, Halibut) juice of 1 lime or half small lemon Fry light Lime wedges and fresh thyme to garnish 1) In a small bowl mix together the parika, onion powder, garlic salt, cumin, cayenne, pepper and thyme 2) Wash and pat dry the fish fillets and sprinkle with lime/lemon juice. Spread a thin layer of the spice mixture over both sides of the fish, making sure they are completely coated 3) Spray a non stick griddle or large frying pan with Fry Light and heat until very hot and press the fish fillets into the pan using a fish slice - there will be a hiss and some smoke. Cokk for 2 mins until richly golden and slighlty blackened, then turn over and cook for a further 2 mins until tender and cooked through 4) Drain and serve with lime wedges and fres thyme sprigs sprinkled over. Accompany with a crisp salad This recipe is for 4 so you could halve the ingredients if you want.....Enjoy! Bev

Bev, I have copied your "Chicken Tikka" from Maz's thread! Thanks Lindy

Bev, I would appreciate any interesting recipe that you might have for fish or chicken. Hubby is diabetic and has high cholestrol and we are both sick of my food. Thanks Lindy;-))

If anyone would like any low fat recipes then let me know! In particular those who are doing the slimming world plan! Tell me what kind of dish you fancy and I will send you the recipe Bev
