20 Best Ever Unofficial Slimming World Recipes - Fatgirlskinny.net | Slimming Recipes, Healthy Eating & Weight Loss (2024)

I think I know what you guys are looking for… good, tasty, healthy, easy recipes but above all else they need to be slimming friendly right? If you are anything like me you will prefer to use your treats on a cheeky chocolate rather than a main meal.

There are so many filling, delicious foods that are completely free of Syns* to create a meal from, so why would we need to add loads of Syns* for no reason? For that reason I have compiled a list of my Top 20 unofficial favourite and most popular Syn free recipes. If you are new to Fatgirlskinny or just need a reminder of the delicious recipes on offer, check it out. You may just find tomorrows dinner…

1. Overnight Oats

As a fellow Slimming World follower.. I also went totally bonkers over this awesome breakfast. It feels so naughty and it’s so easy to make. Not forgetting the fact it’s totally Syn free too!

2. Cloud Bread

If you have never heard of Cloud Bread… Where on earth have you been? Mmmm it really is amazing! It’s great as a snack or makes an awesome alternative burger bun.

3. Chicken With Creamy Mushroom Sauce

If you are a huge lover of mushrooms like myself, this recipe is for you. The best thing about it is it’s Syn free and very low in fat. It’s also quick to prepare and the whole meal is complete within 30 minutes.

4. Spaghetti Bolognese

A good old Spag Bol is one of my favourite Slimming World recipes because it’s totally Syn free and so filling. Also it’s great for a batch cook and perfect for reheating. This recipe will serve 3-4 people.

5. Sweet & Sour Chicken

Sweet and Sour Chicken was always my favourite dish when ordering a Chinese Takeaway.. so this is one of my favourite Fakeaway recipes. Perfect over rice and served with some Slimming World friendly chips.

6. Chicken Paella

The hardest part about making Paella is stopping the bottom from burning. Just make sure you don’t leave it alone and constantly watch and stir often.

7. OXO Roast Potatoes

One of the things I miss about our roast dinner is delicious crispy fatty roast potatoes. Well look what I have discovered… a stock cube can make the most fantastic potatoes.

8. Smoky Summer Potato Salad
