Ok that's soooo much food for the calories! 😅 I am jealous that looks so nice!  

I know right? Mainly veg so loads of it and wedges were only 90kcal!! 

Wow really??? I think you should post a recipe 😂 that is awesome  

Swede wedges / chips / roasties are a great substitute for potato ones. I love them and those you’ve made look great. Of course if you don’t like swede or expect them to taste like spuds (ie of not much) then they’re no good. I treat celeriac the same way too - lovely! 

That looks so good! 😋 

Looks fantastic, Can't stand swede though, Grandma used to hide it in my mash as a kid and i used to throw up lol 

i think I'll definitely be making a similar curry next week now! 

Megan I didn't follow any specific recipe so you can add more or less stuff if you need less calories. It has 200g lean beef few mushrooms, few cauliflowers florets, tinned peas, one courgette and 2 spoons of hot curry powder and spices to taste - no salt a bit of water, et voila :) Swede has only 30 kcal per 100g and i made these of 200g of swede, first part boil them the sprinkle paprika and cayenne pepper to taste and to give them some colour and grill for 10-15 min It was very filling and very tasty! I didnt finish it all! If you need less calories you can swap beef for chicken very easy and no preservatives or hidden sugar. I make nearly all of my dinners from scratch as i want to eat healthy as well as control calories xx  

Gross  

Thanks Tom. Hope it made you throw up in your mouth.. 

Ahh tbh I am so used to making curries with yoghurt or cream I didn't think of trying without them things but I think the idea is great thank you for sharing it smile ☺ and I couldn't agree more with you when you make it yourself you seem to get much more for your calories as well I think 🤔 and at least you can be 100% sure the exact calorie amount! 😅 Well this looks absolutely beautiful and from your recipe it sounds so yummy 😋 thank you for sharing it 😊xx 

Oh and I actually have never looked into swedes calories before so thank you for that had no idea! Shocked 😲 xx 

My pleasure Megan x  

Nice response, Di. Too many trolls appearing these days with hidden profiles, criticising people and foods. 

how many calories please ? if 200 g beef, looks like 150g potatoes, so 700 cal?  

apologies, I see it is swede not potatoes, my mistake. well done. 

That's the most appetizing swede I've ever seen. Your response to that guy was glorious 😂 

I am very confused what troll?  

Thanks Holly 😂😁 Megan Tom felt the need to tell me my food was gross.. so I shared my feelings too 🤗 

Ohhhhh how did I miss that 😂 the cheeky bugger! 😅
