5 Healthy Slimming World Friendly Lunch Ideas.

I've been following the Slimming World diet for the last few months and what I like most about it, is that's (hardly) any weighing and measuring and there's lots of "free" foods that make staying on track easy, even if you're out and about.


Here are five healthy, Slimming World-friendly lunch ideas.


1. Chicken and Vegetable Stir-Fry

  • Ingredients: Lean chicken breast, mixed vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, snap peas, carrots), garlic, ginger, low-sodium soy sauce, and a splash of rice vinegar. Serve with cauliflower rice.

  • Syns: Syn-free if cooked without oil or with low-calorie cooking spray.

  • Why It's Slimming World Friendly: This dish is packed with lean protein and Speed Free Foods (vegetables), keeping it low in calories and high in nutrients.

  • You can swap the chicken for prawns or a plant-based alternative.


2. Turkey and Sweet Potato Chilli

  • Ingredients: Lean ground turkey, sweet potatoes, black beans, chopped tomatoes, onions, garlic, chili powder, and cumin.

  • Syns: Syn-free if cooked with low-calorie cooking spray and lean turkey.

4. Mediterranean Salad with Grilled Chicken

  • Ingredients: Grilled chicken breast, mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives (optional), and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

  • Syns: Syn-free if you skip or measure the olives (6 olives = 1 Syn) and use balsamic vinegar without oil.

  • Why It's Slimming World Friendly: This salad is full of Speed Free Foods and lean protein, keeping it low in Syns and high in nutrients.

  • You could swap the chicken for prawns or a plant-based alternative..


5. Tuna and Sweetcorn Pasta Salad

  • Ingredients: Whole wheat pasta, canned tuna in water, sweetcorn, chopped bell peppers, spring onions, and fat-free natural yogurt or a small amount of light mayo (1 tbsp = 2 Syns).

  • Syns: Can be Syn-free if using fat-free yogurt or low in Syns with light mayo.

  • Why It's Slimming World Friendly: This pasta salad provides a good balance of carbs, protein, and vegetables, keeping you full and satisfied.


These meals are designed to be low in Syns, high in Free Foods, and rich in Speed Foods to help you stay on track with your Slimming World plan.
