Noreen loves: Cook-along curry
Slimming World chef Sal saw us through lockdown with a series of store-cupboard cook-along videos. Noreen joined in and loved this healthy chicken curry, saying:
“I had a red pepper to use up in the fridge, so I added that too. To make my celeriac chips, simply parboil celeriac (peeled and chopped) for five minutes, spray with low-calorie cooking spray, sprinkle with curry powder or smoked paprika and cook in the oven for 15-20 minutes.”

Brenda loves: Crispy chilli beef
It seems that lots of you fancied a fakeaway when you spotted our crispy chilli beef recipe. Brenda lost 3st in nine months on the Slimming World plan. She loves cooking from scratch and gave this recipe a big thumbs up, saying:
“Thank you for this recipe. It’s very nice – the portion serving is rather large! Before Slimming World, whenever life became challenging, I gained weight. No journey is totally without its ups and downs, however, I now have the knowledge and support to never let it get out of control.”
If you find yourself with leftovers, this recipe makes a lovely lunch the following day!
Laura loves: Chicken and bacon salad
The warm weather saw you stocking up on salad – and clicking on our summer salads post for ideas to liven up that lettuce! Laura took her chicken and bacon salad to the next level with a saucy drizzle of pesto (members will find the recipe on the member website). She says:
“Slimming World has been the most incredible journey and getting to target during lockdown felt absolutely amazing. I’m loving seeing all the members again and sharing tips and experiences – the group really makes it!”

Michelle loves: Creamy garlic chicken
This indulgent classic stormed its way into our top three blog posts of all time, with over 100,000 of you clickin’ on the chicken. Michelle’s been a target member for over eight years – a fantastic achievement (and, of course, Slimming World target members get to attend group for free for life). She says:
“I love cooking and trying new recipes. I’m so glad groups are back on, I really missed them during lockdown – although I loved the virtual group meetings on Zoom.”
Ellen loves: Cinnamon toast
Blog readers love our grab-and-go breakfast ideas – so much so that this post takes the No.2 spot in our blog post chart. Ellen starts her day with a good routine of Body Magic and a healthy breakfast. She says:
“Returning to group after lockdown was different, but it’s so nice to be back. Our Consultant, Carole, has made everyone feel so safe and at ease. Group is like a family – it runs so smoothly, everyone just loves being back and our motivation rubs off on each other.”
Ilona loves: Banana bread
And the prize for most popular recipe on the blog goes to 🏆Slimming World banana bread 🏆
Nearly 200,000 of you have checked out this a-peel-ing recipe, and the blog inbox is bursting with your brilliant banana bread photos!
Target member Ilona served her beautiful bread with fresh fruit and a dollop of yogurt. She says:
“I really like this recipe – it was super easy and quick to make. It tasted lovely and not ‘diet’ tasting at all!
My group has been back to ‘normal’ for a few weeks now. It’s lovely to see everyone in person again. Our Consultant, Julie, is amazing. She works so hard to keep us all motivated and on track.”
