Method:
Take your wrap and lay flat.
Spread the purée thinly over the wrap with the back of the spoon. Make sure the entire wrap surface is covered.
Sprinkle the cheese over the wrap evenly and then finish by adding the salami pieces.

As most of you that follow me know, I have been on a weight loss journey with Weight Watchers since October last year. A journey which I was hugely sceptical about and one that I didn't hold out any hope of getting anywhere with. In fact if it wasn't for a friend of mine posting a status about considering joining herself, I would have probably never even joined. So here's to her (She knows who she is)
I'm so glad that I did decide to join as I have had such good results and find it so easy to follow. Its not a diet for me and is more of a lifestyle change which is even better as it has a positive impact of Aalliyahs health and lifestyle as well as my own. I am always cooking from scratch now as opposed to bunging anything in the oven. I eat truck loads of fruit and vegetables now (as does Aalliyah) and because I am not buying any high calorie or sugary snacks, Aalliyah is eating much more balanced and healthy snacks every day. On top of all the healthy food choices, I am getting so much more exercise now than I ever did before. I try to walk anywhere and everywhere (within reason), do regular workouts at home and play all kinds of energetic dance games with Aalliyah (xbox). Aalliyah has always had masses of energy so she welcomes any excuse to come along for walks now which in turn is making her more fit and healthy, and has helped her asthma massively to the point where she was easily able to take part in cross country trials earlier this year.
So why have I named this the fabulous 50? I hear you say. No, I haven't reached that golden age just yet, although the grey hairs indicate I'm not far off! I was actually presented with a certificate at one of my weekly meetings a few weeks back. It was to mark my achievement of losing 50lbs. A massive milestone and one I never imagined I would lose. I still think to myself , why didn't I do something sooner? I have been unhappy with my weight for the best part of my life so could have made a change a long time ago. But that doesn't matter. What matters is I made the decision to change what I wasn't happy about and with determination and a positive, can do attitude I am seeing the results!
I have managed to meet (online) lots of people who are also on a weight loss journey and weather it is through blog posts, Facebook, or even Instagram pictures, I have found each and everyone of them to be a great support.
So thank you to everyone who takes the time to stay updated on how I am getting on and for all of you who let me share in your weight loss journey too!
Here's to the next 50!!!!

Anyway, this weeks theme for "The Gallery" is RED.
So here's my picture. Yes it's a picture of me, and yes it's a bit self indulgent but who cares, I have a reason to be a show off this week after being presented with a certificate of achievement at last weeks weigh in for losing 50 lbs! So this weeks gallery is my chance to show off a bit and enjoy the fact that I actually liked seeing a photo of myself for the first time in a very long time!

A delicious meal and very Weight Watcher friendly at only 9 pro points total meal value.
Using the Weight Watcher Tikka Masala Sauce.
This is what I call a "bung it in" recipe. So if you are not hot on a certain ingredient you can replace with something else and put in whatever you fancy.
Start by gently frying off some mushrooms for 2-3 minutes.
When they start to turn golden brown add in your frozen Quorn Chicken
pieces. (100g = 3 pro points)
Gently fry off until chicken pieces are cooked through.
Next pour in your Weight Watchers Tikka sauce (Half a jar = 3 pro points)
Gently stir ensuring all chicken pieces are covered, turn down heat and allow to heat through until you are ready to serve.
Preparing the bulgar wheat...
To cook bulgar wheat you use 5.5 parts water to 1 part bulgar wheat.
Start by measuring out your bulgar wheat. (60g Dry = 3 prop points)
Place your water in a pan (with stock if required) and bring to boil.
When boiling put the wheat into the water, cover and turn down, letting it simmer for approx 15 minutes, or until all the water has absorbed.
When ready leave pan to stand for 10 minutes, gently fluff up with a fork and serve.
Add some vegetables on the side to complete your meal and remember if you are a "Weight Watcher" fill your plate with your zero heroes.
