Snacking on slimming world can be difficult, I’m not going to lie the amount of times I’ve wanted chocolate or naughty food is unreal. I think I have a solution, a nice cheesy solution with this Slimming World Cheese and Onion Pasty (Syn Free).
Slimming World Cheese and Onion Pasty
These Slimming World Cheese and Onion Pasty (Syn Free) are great for everyone, packed full of flavour and no pasty in sight!

Syns In Slimming World Cheese and Onion Pasties?
These cheese and onion pasties are totally syn free if you’re using your healthy extras as part of the recipe, otherwise, you will have to syn them. So to keep the Slimming World Cheese and Onion Pasty syn free, you will have to use the wrap and cheese as your healthy extras, otherwise the pasty will be 6 syns, which isn’t bad at all, compared to a shop bought one.
If you wanted to make smaller ones, then all you need to do is cut the wrap in half and make quarters in exactly the same method. Which means you can enjoy them for longer without the added guilt!
I have created a few different Slimming World Pasties, you should check them out: Ham, Cheese and Pepper, Chicken and Sweetcorn and even a Tuna Melt. They all use the same methods and fake pastry alternative.
If you want to know if you can do something sweet with a pasty, well the answer is yes, here are a couple of my suggestions: Apple Strudel and Apple Turnover, absolutely delicious!
