Your Slimming World party food plan<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

December can be a party pooper-free zone when you have a plan up your sleeve (scroll for our favourite recipes)…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fill up first<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A filling pre-party meal will stop you from arriving hungry \u2013 so you can pick the bits of the buffet that you’ll really enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be a dinner detective<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Restaurants definitely don\u2019t have to be a no-go zone for Slimming World members. Seeing the menu in advance will help you to plan, and you’ll also have the handy Food Search tool at your fingertips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ready in 25 mins<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

3 kiwi fruit, sliced
600g strawberries, stalks removed
300g each of red and white seedless grapes
1 orange-fleshed melon, peeled, deseeded and cut into bite-sized chunks
1 carrot
1 apple<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

1. To make the Christmas tree first you have to cut a slice from the bottom of an apple so that it sits flat. Then put it on a flat surface and fix a carrot on its top. For this you can use wooden skewers or cocktail sticks to secure it in place. After that put cocktail sticks in the apple and carrot, just like branches of a tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. To assemble, attach the chopped fruit to the cocktail sticks, covering the apple and carrot completely. Finish with a star-shaped melon piece on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mulled wine<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
