Snacking for under 10 syns!

So i've been looking at different ways to use my syns that satisfy my sweet tooth. Here's some really useful infographics that Slimming World have provided to show you don't have to go without!


Need to get back into it properly and i'm really struggling at the moment as I feel like i'm getting bored so hopefully mixing things up will help.

Herbal Tea



I got the clipper tea in my slimmer of the week box and it's absolutely gorgeous! Would highly recommend. 

The 2nd one is peppermint tea, I have to say I've started having these instead of proper brews. It's a great way to have a hot drink without using all your milk allowance!

Strawberries!

Snacking on SW has never been so easy. I live on strawberries a lot of the time which is awesome because they're a speed fruit. Got a new little gadget to slice them up from ebay for just over £1, bargain!
having them with yoghurt & a sprinkle of cinammon is one of my favourite snacks. And all free!

Chocolate Orange Squares




4 eggs, separated
50g caster sugar
5 tbsp artificial sweetener
150g self raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp finely grated orange zest
Juice of 2 oranges
120g Kraft chocolate Philadelphia
Tin of mandarin oranges (drained of syrup)


Method
Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°C Fan/Gas 5. Line a cake tin with non-stick baking parchment, approximately 24cm x 17cm.

Place the egg yolks, caster sugar, sweetener, self raising flour, baking powder, orange zest and juice in a bowl and whisk until thick and pale.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until softly peaked then fold them into the egg yolk mixture.

Spoon this mixture into the prepared cake tin and cook in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cake has risen and is firm to touch. Leave to cool.

Warm the chocolate Philadelphia in the microwave for a few seconds, then turn the cake upside down, remove the baking parchment and spread the chocolate Philadelphia over the top.

Cut into 24 pieces and place a mandarin orange segment on the top of each square.


Taken from the Slimming World website.

I had a sweet tooth and just one of these squares is enough for me but at 2.5 syns each you can definately have another if you need to!

Let me know your thoughts.
