Aloo Gobi - Slimming World Style

Welcome to my first Slimming World recipe of 2015!!

My plan is to share with you some of the amazing tasting food that is available on the new Extra Easy plan. One thing you wont believe is that you can loose weight whilst tucking into these amazing meals.

This week I won the weekly food raffle at our group meeting and won all the ingredients needed to make Aloo Gobi on page 69 from the Jan/Feb 2015 issue of the Slimming World magazine.

The recipe below is not set in stone as to what you can put in it, get creative!!  I included some mushrooms and peppers that needed using up from the fridge; just make sure that they are free foods and ideally S & P.

I have to admit that the whole dish took alot longer than the advised time to cook, most probably because I may of not cut the cauliflower into small enough chunks! This dish is so filling and has the most amazing taste, you must give it a try!
