Now that 71g of Philly light cheese is now a HEA on all plans, what sort of recipes could you use it in? I am thinking Beef Stroganoff but I don't have an exact recipe. Any philly lovers out there??

great question, would be good to know the answer to this! :)
 
try doing a search on this forum or take a look at their website where they have a great recipe section
 
I slice a chicken breast down one side and fill it with Philadelphia garlic n herb, wrap the chicken in a slice of parma ham (1/2 syn) and cook it in the oven for about 30 minutes :drool:
 
  • Haddock and leek risotto
  • Serves 4
  • 400 g Smoked haddock
  • 1 tsp olive oil (1 tbsp is free on Hexb so 1 tsp hardly even a quarter syn) Frylight will make it free
  • 2 leeks sliced into disks
  • 300 g risotto rice
  • 1.5 l hot vegetable stock
  • 120 g light Philly
  • Small bunch chives chopped


Place the haddock into a dish and pour over boiling water till it’s covere, cling film and set aside for 10 mins.

Heat the oil in a large saucepan and add leeks, cook gently for 5 mins until they are softened but not brown.
Tip in the rice and stir briefly then pour in half the stock and stir. Continue to stir regularly until the stock is absorbed then pour in half of the remaining stock. Continue this process until all of the stock has been poured in.Once the haddock has been poached for 10 mins drain it and flake into chunks. Add the Philly to the risotto and stir through thoroughly then add the haddock and chives, stir through gently taking care not to mash the haddock.
 
Not actually a recipe but I'm having a phase of mixing in a couple of tsp of lemon curd and spreading it on pagen krisprolls or finn crisps

I didn't realise that it was an official HEA now - YAY I'm happy

I philly garlic and herb potatoes
Parboil potaoes ( I use new potatoes in their skins), spray a ovenproof dish with frylight, slice the potatoes and place in the dish mix the garlic and herb philly with some vegetable stock til its like a double cream consistancy, pour over the potatoes and place in the oven for 45mins or until potatoes are soft on 190 degrees its lovely, sorry dont have exact measurments was bored the other day and just thought I would try something new. x
 
Creamy peppered mushrooms is my favourite use of philadelphia light:

Saute some shallotts in fry light, add loads of mushrooms, and 400ml of stock, using whichever flavour matches what you are eating them with. Bring to the boil, and simmer rapidly until the mushrooms have cooked, stir in a 200g tub of philadelphia, and simmer gently, until reduced to the consistency that you require.I leave it more saucy if eating with pasta, and thicker if serving with grilled meat etc. Add loads of crushed black peppercorns to taste.

The variations on this are endless, sometimes, I don't make it peppery, and then it is like a diane sauce.

Sometimes, I saute chicken, pork or beef with the shallotts, and cook as above, either with or without the mushrooms - The chicken and mushroom one is particularly good with pasta, and pork fillett without the mushrooms is absolutely delicious.

I use the 200g tub which serves three of us, so my third is now my HEXA, but you can use any quanity, just double the volume of stock, i.e. 71 g of philly light = 142 ml stock.
 
I used ricotta before for this but i suppose it can be done with philly, its out of the green recipe book,

using the big pasta shells, cook them then stuff them with now with philly and cooked spinach, with chopped up pieces of bacon (he) i then used grated cheese as syns, put a couple of grated bits over each one and the placed them under the grill, cook some passata, mushrooms, garlic and onion and then place massive stuffed pasta shells on there

FAB!
 
Philly also have a good app for the iphone with loads of recipes on.
