Mini egg mousse pots, Slimming World friendly

Easter can be a hard time for Slimming World members, especially if you’re partial to a bit lot of chocolate. Plus all of the delicious desserts including Creme Eggs and the such that come with it. Luckily for me I’m more of a savoury person, but I do enjoy the odd treat every now and then. As we all know, Slimming World members needn’t miss out if you want to stay totally on plan over Easter; there are many recipes that can be adapted.

I’ve used dried breadcrumbs to top this one instead of cheese; they add a bit of crunch. You could top it with cheese, too, if you like, using your healthy extra or synning it.

The Health Benefits of Red Meat

by Stacey January 23, 2018January 23, 2018

For plenty of years, people have accused red meat of being bad for your health for not one but a plethora of reasons. Many of those who were once meat lovers and proud carnivores have even bought into the statements that highlight the negative traits of red meat and as a result, they converted to veganism and resorted to a diet that consisted of vegetables, fruits and anything but red meat.
