Just thought I'd start a thread with some T&T Weight Watcher meals/desserts...
WW Potato Soup (This is REALLY good!)
1 point per 1 cup serving
20 oz pkg. Obrien frozen hash brown potatoes
4 cans F/F chicken broth (14 oz cans)
½ onion, diced
3 stalks celery, diced
1 pkg. low fat country gravy mix (Pioneer brand – no fat)
Put all in pot boil about 20 minutes. The longer it boils, the more it thickens up.
NOTE: If you add shredded cheese, you’ll need to add on additional points.
Taco Soup – 1 point per cup
(This was mailed to me by the WW leader – I haven’t tried this version yet)
1 can northern beans
1 can pinto beans
1 can mild Rotel tomatoes and peppers
2 cans seasoned tomatoes
1 can Mexican style corn or plain corn
1 pkg. Taco seasoning
1 pkg. Hidden Ranch dry salad dressing mix- fat free
1 can diced tomatoes
All cans added un-drained. You can add water if you desire a thinner soup.
NOTE: You can add 1 lb. ground been and onion cooked together and then your total point value would be 2 points per cup. Freezes well, so make a double batch.
Shrimp Stir Fry – Another really good recipe!!!
Serves 4 at 5 points per serving
¾ lb. cooked shrimp (tails removed)
1 pkg. frozen stir fry vegetables
1 onion
1 bell pepper
Szechuan Stir Fry Sauce
Serve over either brown or white rice.
1. Cut up bell pepper & onion and sauté in a pan using a non-stick spray.
2. Make r servings of either brown or white rice (add 1 point for white rice).
3. After vegetables are lightly cooked, add frozen vegetables and cooked shrimp.
4. Add a tbsp. of water to thin Szechuan Sauce.
5. Scoop ¼ cup Rice into a bowl.
6. Serve 1 cup of stir fry on top of rice.
If you’re using white rice, then the point value is 6 points per serving.
Rocky Top Chicken
Grilled Boneless Chicken Breast (I use my GF Grill)
While chicken is still hot, sprinkle a little of each on top as follows:
Grated Monterey & Cheddar Cheeses (just a little bit goes a long way)
Crumbled (cooked) bacon (I buy it in a jar)
Small – diced tomatoes
Green onions (optional – I don’t use)
Sautéed sliced mushrooms (optional – I don’t use)
Once you have everything on top of the chicken, put in the oven until the cheese melts.
Points are based on the ounces of chicken Plus I add 1-2 points for the toppings. (3 oz. is about the size of your palm)
Note: Serve with either a nice salad or some cooked veggies. (Veggies are FREE in points).
Smothered Chicken with Pierogies (I really like this one!!!)
1 dozen frozen potato and cheddar cheese pierogies
1 can (10 ¾ oz) lowfat cream of chicken soup
1 can (4 oz) sliced mushrooms, drained
1/2 cup frozen peas
2 cups cubed or shredded cooked chicken Preheat oven to 350*. Spray a 2 quart casserole with nonstick coating.
Thaw pierogies in boiling water for 5 minutes, drain and place in the casserole dish.
In a large saucepan, combine soup, mushrooms, peas, and chicken. Cook, stirring, about 5 minutes or until heated through. Pour over pierogies. Bake 15 minutes.
Serves 4 @ 7 pts each
Lemon Squares
15 servings 3 pts each
from: www.aimeesadventures.com (really good website!)
1 Box Angel Food Mix
1 (16 oz.) Can Lemon Pie Filling (I used Comstock Brand)
1/8 Cup Powdered Sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Using a hand mixer, mix the angel food cake mix with pie filling until combined well. Pour into a 9X13 pan. Bake for 30 minutes.
Let cook completely, and then sprinkle powdered sugar on top.
Cut into 15 bars.
Blueberry Squares (THE BEST!!!)
15 servings @ 3 points each
1 Box Angel Food Mix
1 can of Blueberry pie filling
Mix the angel food cake and pie filling together – nothing else. Pour into a 9x13 pan. Bake according to package direction. When you serve it, put a dollop of fat free cool whip on top.
You can also make cupcakes with this at only 1 point per cupcake!
Frozen S'Morewiches (Tastes just like an ice-cream sandwich!)
Serves: 18
Calories: 114
Fat: 1
Fiber: 0
~2 WW Points~
18 (Full Sheets) Low Fat Cinnamon Graham Crackers
1 1/2 Cups Fat Free Milk
1 (1.4 oz.) Package Sugar Free Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix
1 Cup Miniature Marshmallows
1/8 Cup Miniature Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
2 Cups Fat Free Cool Whip
In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk and pudding until combined. Set aside.
Break the graham cracker sheets in half to make squares. Place 18 graham cracker squares face down on a large cookie sheet. Set aside.
Once the pudding has thickened a bit, fold in the cool whip, marshmallows and chocolate chips. Place approx. 1/4 cup of the mixture on top of each graham cracker. Top each with the remaining graham cracker squares. It's ok if some of the mixture squeezes out the sides.
At this point you can wrap each square in plastic wrap and freeze, or freeze and then wrap in plastic wrap. I freeze first so it's less messy.
Freeze for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from freezer when ready to serve and let stand at room temperature for about 5 minutes before eating.
Note: You can use vanilla pudding if you don't like chocolate and you can use honey graham crackers if you don't like cinnamon.
Ice Cream Sandwiches - 1 point each
1 full sheet of graham cracker (Low fat)
1 Tbsp of coolwhip
Put coolwhip on graham cracker half and put other half on top. Wrap and freeze. I make a bunch and individually wrap them and pull out later. Can’t tell the difference between a real ice cream sandwich and this!
