A taste of Slimming World food

With more than 1,700 recipes in our collection, it’s so easy to find whatever you fancy. To give you a head start on your weekend menu-planning, we’ve got three delicious dinner recipes to try – including family favourites and a cheeky fakeaway. Are you ready to taste the freedom of the Slimming World plan for yourself?

Friday: Sweet and sour chicken with noodles

Slimming World sweet and sour chicken with egg noodles

Who fancies a Friday-night fakeaway? This Chinese-style dish is cooked slowly to make it fall-apart tender and intensely tasty. Served with a swirl of egg noodles and oodles of sweet and sour sauce, it’s the perfect dish to kick off your weekend.

Saturday: Hot dogs and chips

If the sun’s shining this Saturday, hot dogs in the garden are hard to beat. Gather the kids, family and friends and dish up the full hot dog experience, with sweet onions, soft bun and a side of Slimming World chips.

Sunday: Slow-cooked shredded pork ragu with fresh pasta

Slimming World slow-cooked pork ragu and pasta

Yes, you can have pasta on the Slimming World plan! Let the sauce simmer away on a lazy Sunday, and you’ll be rewarded with the richest, tastiest, melt-in-the-mouth ragu.

A taste of Slimming World support

We’ve been helping people to lose weight for more than 50 years, so we understand the importance of strong support while slimming. It may not always be plain sailing, even with a plan as generous and easy as Food Optimising. That’s why we offer unmatched encouragement, inspiration, care and compassion in our Slimming World groups – we’ll be with you every step of the way.

In group, we’ll help you overcome anything that’s getting in the way of your weight loss – whether it’s your personal trigger foods, your danger zones or your self-sabotage traps. Our Motivational Toolkit is packed with expert tools and strategies, developed out of a deep understanding of the psychology of slimming, to tackle the challenges that we all occasionally face.

You’ll also feel empowered to start moving more through our unique Body Magic programme – which encourages you to get active at your own pace, in a way that suits your lifestyle. This will help to maintain your weight loss and bring a whole host of health and wellbeing benefits your way!

Slimming World isn’t a ‘quick fix’, although you can expect fantastic results on the scales from the very first week when you Food Optimise 100%. Our plan is designed to work long term, helping you make lasting lifestyle changes that will lead to a slimmer you that’s here to stay!
