These breakfast potatoes are the perfect Syn free accompaniment to a full English.. try topping with a delicious poached egg. This unofficial recipe is perfect for any one following Slimming World, Weight Watchers or a calorie controlled diet.
Hello my lovelies how are you all? Remember the Cornish New Potatoes I told you about last week? Well I am here with my second recipe “Breakfast potatoes” as promised.. I am very slighty addicted to these now, they are absolutely delicious.
As I mentioned in my last post the Cornish New Potatoes are seasonal and only available in Tesco stores between June – August. As the weather heats up and the potatoes reach the right size the Cornish New Potato becomes more readily available in stores.
The thing I love most about these potatoes is how “home grown” they feel and how soft the skin is. There is absolutely no need to peel these spuds first.
To find out more information about the Cornish New Potato please visit the Seasonal Spud website where you can also find other recipes which can easily be adapted to Slimming World.
I LOVE breakfast.. they are right it really is the best meal of the day.. (who is “they’? Have you ever wondered that? haha). I could happily eat a HUGE breakfast and not eat for the rest of the day. One of the things I love for breakfast is a full English and this has to include some kind of potato for me. I love hash browns but they can have a high fat content. Which makes these breakfast potatoes perfect as they are low in fat, Syn free and not forgetting vegetarian!
