When it comes to the slimming world diet I’ve seen loads of recipes that can be really bland and not that nice. I like to pack my slimming world recipes full of flavour and that’s why I use loads of spices and flavours to give my slimming world recipes a kick!
If you’ve been following my site for a while you’ll know I have loads of slimming world recipes where I add flavours and spices to make sure they taste the best they can do!
Slimming World Spices
The great things about spices in slimming world recipes are most of them are syn free. You’ll have to check the syn value from time to time as slimming world sometimes changing the amount of syns in various foods but for the most part they are all syn free spices.
When it comes to slimming world all single spices are herbs are syn free, you can pick them up nice and cheap from Aldi and be a frugal foodie at the same time! When it comes to blended spices there may be a syn count so you’ll have to double check with the official slimming world guides for them, as I said they’re always changing!
However, there are loads of syn free spices you can use. Check out some of the spices I use the most in slimming world recipes, these are the spices you’ll find on my slimming world shopping list every month!
- Salt & Pepper
- Cumin
- Basil
- Oregano
- Curry powder
- Cinnamon
- Chilli flakes

Slimming World Sweeteners
Sweeteners on slimming world are a bit more of a pain, they’re full of syns but there are ways to reduce these. To begin with, I prefer to use a sweetener because most of them have less syns than sugar. I know that slimming world Sweeteners can be a big part of the slimming world diet, they help you enjoy foods without feeling guilty and I get that! Here are a few sweeteners I use.
- Silver Spoon Sweetener
- Jordan Skinny Sweetener
When it comes to slimming world recipes you can also use natural sugars, remember you’ll still have to syn these but it means you’re using less sugar or sweeteners. One example would be my Slimming World Chocolate Chip Banana Bread recipe which is only 2 syns per slice. Banana is a great natural sugar, just make sure you syn it all!

If you haven’t guessed already I love slimming world and all the amazing slimming world recipes that come with it. I’d love to know your favourite recipes that you use regular spices of sweeteners with, they can be one of mine of someone else I don’t mind.
