Grilled Sandwich-5 points

This is another great idea from Rebecca! Thanks again ;)

Sandwich thins (1 pt)
Put 6 slices of Oscar Myer Deli fresh black forest ham (1 pt)
1 oz of reduced fat cheese (2 pts)

Spread the sandwich thins with Land o Lakes light butter with canola oil on the outside (1 Tbs=1 pt) and grill it.
(She actually flips the sandwich thin so the inside is actually the outside so it butters and grills better)

Put tomatoes and thinly sliced red onions on it before you grill it so they get nice and warm
Then take it off and add a little shredded lettuce

I can't wait to try this.

**You could use the 1 point cheese slices (Great Value 2% singles or the WW brand) instead if you would like. This would make the sandwich 4 points.

1 point Jello and some ideas for it!

My wonderful friend Rebecca shared some great ideas with me! Thank you :)

Jell-o Live Active pudding-1 point

She uses the Dark Chocolate Tuxedo and will dip a low fat graham crackers or a banana in it for a snack.

Keebler low fat Grahams-2 points for 2 full sheets!

Rebeccca also does a 3 point pudding pie type thing: (I've tried this idea of hers and it's yum!)

Crush 2 graham crackers sheets in a bowl-2 points
Pour a jello over the top-1 point
Top with 2 T. sugar free cool whip-0 points

Peaches/Strawberries 'n Cream-3 points

I just have to share this one because I've been loving this as a snack or dessert!!

Fruit-1 point (strawberries=1 & 1/2 C. or Peaches=6 oz.)
6 T. Fat Free Half & Half- 1 point (this is a GOOD amount if liquid!)
4 t. Sugar-1 point
1 t. vanilla extract (about that amount)
several dashes of nutmeg (only if you're using peaches. NOT if you're using strawberries)

It's just fine eating it right away, but I prefer to mix it all and put it in the fridge for 15-30 minutes to let all the flavors mix.

It's delicious and very satisfying. I think my favorite part is drinking the rest at the end :)

New Food Ideas!

I LOVE when people share "food finds"! Tonight at Weight Watchers some different people shared some things that I want to try at some point. I don't know the exact info about them right now, but here's what I do know:

1. At Trader Joe's and Fresh and Easy you can buy a Brownie mix that you make with yogurt and they're 2 points for 1/12 of the pan. The people say they're pretty good!

2. There are some single serving veggies that are in the freezer section and they have a cheesy sauce on them for 0 points. For 2 servings it would be 1 point. I'm not SURE I'll like them, but if I do, I think it will be something good to add in with my lunch.

3. Uncle Ben's brown rice. It's 1 C. and you only have to microwave it for 1 minute and the points are quite low. I just don't remember what the points are. Again, this is something I think would be handy to have around for when I'm at a loss for ideas. I'm thinking I would like to do a little rice bowl with some chicken and beans and salsa, kinda like a rice bowl I've gotten at El Pol lo Loco. Just a though, but haven't finalized the thought yet :)

4. Fresh and Easy has some honey pretzel twists that several different people said are really good. They mentioned that the pretzels are a good size (they were showing 3 inches tall and said it's kinda thick) and you get 10 of them for something like 1 point (possibly 2 points, I can't remember exactly). If you have the munchies they would definitely do the trick!

Ok, so I shared some ideas, now somebody share something with ME!!!! :) I don't care if I don't know you, I would just like some help here people :) I like variety and good ideas! Thanks in advance! :)

Taco Salad-7 points

1 oz. baked tortilla chips (Tostito brand)-2 pts.
2 oz. meat (I used ground turkey burger seasoned with taco seasoning)-2 pts.
1/2 C. kidney beans-1 pt.
2 T. light sour cream-1 pt.
Cheese (1/6 C. of WW Mexican blend cheese which is 1/2 of their serving size)-1 pt.
lettuce
salsa

-You could also add in olives or avocado for more points.
-I use the salsa and sour cream instead of a salad dressing. I feel like I get more sauce for less points and prefer the flavor.

Light Zesty Italian dressing-2 T. = 1 point

-I use this to marinade my shrimp
-I'll cut up cucumber and let it soak in it
-Or really just use it for a marinade for whatever you want :)
