Slimming World FAQs – eg Are Baked Beans Free on Slimming World?
Sometimes, you have a relatively simple yet burning question that is bugging you, and you wonder if it will affect your progress on Slimming World. Here are all the questions such as what is free on Slimming World, I know I have been asked many times, and others have too, so I hope they will help you out. Just remember if something isn’t speed it could still be free on Slimming World and if something is free on Slimming World it isn’t necessarily speed!
Are tinned tomatoes speed?
Yes, they are, as are tomato puree and passata. I find these great for making my own pasta sauce, pizza topping and even for tomatoes on toast for breakfast. They are great to use in pasta dishes to top up those veggies! Free on Slimming World means you can have as many as you like.
Are sweet potatoes speed?
No, unfortunately not. They are still free however so you can enjoy them guilt-free. Perfect as an alternative to a jacket potato as they have numerous benefits you shouldn’t ignore too.
Is avocado speed?
No sorry, it is not. It is actually not even free on Slimming World it is synned. This does not mean you can not have avocados for breakfast just that you need to count them and have them in moderation. Avocado is quite healthy in other ways though so maybe worth considering even if it isn’t free on the plan.
Sweetcorn – Is it free or speed?
Babycorn is speed; however, other sweetcorn is free on Slimming World. This means you can eat both, but baby corn is slightly better.
