serves 4
Free
ready in 55 mins<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you need:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

800g potatoes, peeled and roughly chopped
200g fat-free natural fromage frais
1 tsp mustard powder
8 frozen Slimming World Pork Sausages (from Iceland)
1 cal cooking spray
400g back bacon rashers, visible fat removed, chopped
2 orange peppers, deseeded and roughly chopped
1 large onion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
1 tsp smoked paprika
2 x 415g cans baked beans
6 tbsp tomato pur\u00e9e
your favourite vegetables, to serve
chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, to serve<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you do:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. To make the mash, boil the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until soft. After draining, return the potatoes to the pan and mash with the fromage frais until smooth. Mix the mustard powder with 3 tbsp water and stir into the mash with a little salt and pepper. Keep warm until needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. While the potatoes are boiling, grill the sausages according to the pack instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Spray a large, ovenproof dish with 1 cal cooking spray and place over a high heat. Add the bacon, peppers and onions, then stir-fry for 5-6 minutes (or until the bacon is lightly browned and the veg has started to soften).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Add the garlic and chilli, together with the smoked paprika, and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the baked beans and tomato pur\u00e9e, then bring to the boil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Turn down the heat to medium-low, then slice each sausage into 3 pieces and add to the dish. Simmer the campfire stew gently for 6-8 minutes, then season to taste. Serve the stew with a dollop of mash and your favourite vegetables (green beans work really well) \u2013 and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And there you go \u2013 in just five easy steps you\u2019ve got a comforting casserole ready to go. This campfire stew is the perfect dinner for cold, drizzly days, and once you\u2019ve tried it, it\u2019s guaranteed a regular spot on your weekly menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Campfire stew tips: <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The key to keeping this campfire stew Free is to use Slimming World sausages (they\u2019re Swip-free) and to trim the visible fat from your bacon rashers, so they\u2019re as lean as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replacing the sausages and bacon with vegetarian sausages will make this dish suitable for vegetarians. Members can quickly check the Swip values of their favourite sausages using the online food search tool or the Slimming World barcode scanner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
