Ok, recipe I made up:-

1 cm of oilive oil in a frying pan
1 onion chopped
2 cloves of garlic chopped
6/8 rashers of bacon chopped
2 teaspoons fresh black pepper

lob them all in

Cook spaghetti

When spaghetti nearly cooked add 3 heaped tablespoons of parmesan to frying pan

rinse spaghetti and add the mixture – eat with salad, and add more parmesan/pepper to taste

Honestly this is sooooo quick and easy and yummy

ps. no salt, cos the bacon/parmesan is anyway, but there again, I use un-smoked and don’t like salt!

Can never understand why people have oven chips its just as fast to make these and they are much healthier

Peel a large potato and cut into very chunky chips, toss the raw chips in soy sauce so they are evenly coated and brown. Spray a baking sheet with one calorie cooking spray and spread chips on the tray. Cook in a hot oven for about 20 minutes.

Scrumptious.. Low calorie chips

Just a couple of shakes of soy sauce a little goes a long way!!

Melody, is this a summer recipe, so it goes with a salad?

[jen_jen]

1 cm of oil in a frying pan? Sounds like a lot of oil :shock:

[anc]

yeah it is a lot, but it coats the spag – believe me, it works – try it with less, if you like, but it will be dry! Try it, it is honestly a good cheap recipe and quick and easy.

Hearty Veggie Soup

Ingredients
2 onions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed and sliced
8-10 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into nice sized pieces
2 carrots, sliced
2 stick celery, sliced
1.4 litre vegetable stock (or half and half, vegetable/beef)
2 tsp mixed herbs
Handful of long-grain rice
6 tbsp cooked lentils or chickpeas (optional)
3 tbsp flour
175 g self-raising flour
75 g vegetable suet
Pinch of salt & pepper
A little water

Preparation method
1. Heat a little oil in a flame-proof casserole or stew pot and gently fry the onions and garlic until just browned.

2. Add the flour and mix well before pouring on the stock, a little at a time, stirring continuously.

3. Add the remaining ingredients, bring to a boil then lower heat to simmer for 10 minutes.

4. In the meantime, make the dumplings by sifting the flour into a bowl and mixing with the suet. Add a little water, a tablespoon at a time, until the mixture forms a soft dough (don’t let it get sticky). Form the dough into 8 small balls and coat with flour.

5. Drop the dumplings into the stew and continue simmer for another 20-25 minutes until the dumplings are fluffy and soft.

6. Serve with a slice of crusty bread.
