Slimming World Green Day Cannelloni

"A delicious guilt free pasta meal for those on the slimming world eating plan. This recipe states it will serve 4, but I only managed to fill 8 tubes instead of the 12 stated. I also would cut down the sweetener to 1 tsp as I found it overpowering. This works out at 1 syn per serving if serving 2."

  1. This tasted great! But i found it really fiddily. I used 7 dry sheets of lasagne pasta and cooked it just enough untill i could fold it. Then i mixed 250g quark with 150g spinach, egg yolk, lemon and dried mixed herbs as i had none of the other ingredients. Slap the mixture on the lasagne and roll into long tubes. Cut them in half, cover with tomato pasta sauce and bung in the oven for a bit. I mad ethis for 3 people but had loads left over. Even better, it worked out less than 300 cals a portion (maybe i should of just submitted a recipe of my own...)

I love my job and find it both challenging and rewarding. I enjoy cooking and have, after a period of low enthusiasm, started to cook more and more new recipes that I have found online. I am working on a ring binder of recipes so the children can be more involved in the food they eat and will hopefully create our perfect cookbook of food we all love.<img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b158/bella_donata/My%20Art/Recipezaar/goldsparkle.png border=0 alt=Made by Bella14ragazza /> <br /><a href=http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v51/tiggrr34/?action=view&amp;current=HolidayOrnamentSwapTag2c-1-1-1.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v51/tiggrr34/HolidayOrnamentSwapTag2c-1-1-1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /> <br /></a><a href=http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa97/angelamtch/1a511f23-1.gifborder=> <br /> <br /></a><a href=http://s201.photobucket.com/albums/aa97/angelamtch/?action=view&amp;current=1a511f23-1.gif target=_blank><img src=http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa97/angelamtch/1a511f23-1.gif border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr266/Acadia/Banners/HolidayCardSwapBannerP-1.jpg alt= /></a></p>
