You might see a trend with the scan bran :sigh: I do 5 pieces a day Mon-Fri as it works for me and I'm sticking with it leading up to my holiday but hopefully some of the dinners may give you some ideas x
Fab thankyou thats great!
I have heard about scan bran but not too sure what it is what it does could you enlighten me please?

There's the scan bran challenge if you search on here you will find plenty of threads about it, it tends to divide people! works for some and not for others but basically it is pure fibre crisp breads and they aren't the nicest of things to eat!! but the SW challenge is to eat 5 pieces a day (5 pieces are a HEB or 1 syn each otherwise) for 5 days, with LOTS of water and in a nutshell you go to the toilet FREQUENTLY!:8855:x

Is the SW Shepherds pie syn free on red days or what do you use as a topping??

It's about 5 syns but that's because I use a Shepherd's Pie mixture but you could search for a lower syn version or just use gravy granules and syn them? I make it:

Extra lean mince
Onions
Mushrooms
Shepherd's Pie Mixture

fry them all up and then put it in a glass dish and cook a bag of Aunt Bessie's carrot and swede mash in the microwave and top it with that plus my HEA cheese and bang in the oven to heat through and melt the cheese.

The topping is so yummy I much prefer it to potato now!
