Mini Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins (Easy Recipe) I have been obsessed with muffins for as long as I can remember.  But back in the early Weight Watchers days, I’d try to make them as low points as possible.  These mini banana chocolate chip muffins use real ingredients, are 3 WW points each and only 71 calories each.  To me, it’s worth it to have something...

Meatball Couscous Salad This meatball couscous salad with an orange tahini dressing is going to be my new go to salad this summer.  At only 8 Weight Watchers points, 505 calories and a whopping 40 grams of protein, this will be a hit with your whole family and friends. Ingredients for Meatball Couscous Salad This ingredient list may seem long, but if you have a...

Oreo Granola It appears that my most recent hyper fixation is making granola!  And this Oreo Granola is probably one of my favorites so far.  With mini oreo cookies, dark chocolate chips, and marcona almonds, it is the perfect combination.  I get asked all the time to come up with a low Weight Watchers point granola, and it just doesn’t exist if you want it...

Katsu Chicken [Weight Watchers Friendly] Hannah turned me onto katsu chicken [Weight Watchers friendly] and it was immediately love at first bite. Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with that tangy sweet katsu sauce drizzled over the top? So good. The best part is that the macros are fantastic, it comes together easily enough for a weeknight dinner, and it tastes like something...

Easy BBQ Baby Back Ribs (No Skill Required) These easy bbq baby back ribs (no skill required) is perfect for a beginner cook, or for someone who has been intimated by their grill to make bbq ribs.  One of the first BBQ ribs recipes on my website goes all the way back to 2009!  The first line of that blog post?  “I overcooked the ribs!!!!” ...

Banana Biscuits Hannah nearly threw up in her mouth when I said I wanted to make banana biscuits.  She joked and said “why don’t you go ahead and add cottage cheese, greek yogurt and zucchini in them?”  It’s a running joke in our family that my son-in-law says I can’t make baked goods without those three ingredients. But in my head, I knew these would...

Women’s Retreat Recipes This past weekend I had the opportunity to attend a women’s retreat, and not only attend, but speak for 90 minutes.  When Rose, who coordinated the event, asked me last fall if I’d be willing to do it, I didn’t hesitate.  I said yes immediately.  Did I ask how long I’d be speaking?  No.  Did I ask if there would be a...

Frosted Flakes Chocolate Chip Cookies Mariano’s always has a discount rack right before the check out.  Hannah and I are a sucker for that discount rack, and have been known to spend 10+ minutes looking at everything.  Last week they had a box of Frosted Flakes on discount, and I immediately thought of Frosted Flakes Chocolate Chip Cookies.  Best idea evah! I typically say that...

Burger King Italian Royal Chicken Sandwich Recipe This recipe brings me back to Jr. High.  Confident I only babysat for two reasons.  One: to babysit at homes that had amazing pantries and freezers where I was told I could “help myself.”  Two: to earn money babysitting so I could go to Burger King and get the Burger King Italian Royal Chicken Sandwich. I was a...

Green Beans with Insane Sauce This recipe for green beans with insane sauce is inspired and adapted from my friend Bobby’s website.  You can check out his original version here.  Since I don’t like mayo, this is my adapted version and makes me crave green beans!  Because I made the swap from mayo to yogurt, it reduced the Weight Watchers points to just 2 points...
