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...

Blueberry Sour Cherry Scones I met my friend Amy for some thrifting yesterday and I brought her some of these blueberry sour cherry scones.  Since I had just written the recipe, and they were hot out of the oven, I never had a chance to taste one.  Happily, these turned out to be 6 Weight Watchers points. When I got back home, I took a...

Blueberry Swim Biscuits Until a few days ago, I’d never even heard of a swim biscuit.  A creator said she made blueberry swim biscuits and as soon as I saw her video, I knew I had to make them.  I of course tried to make these a bit more Weight Watchers friendly, and calories wise, I brought them down to 238 calories per biscuit.  However,...

Banana Walnut Muffins Hannah always makes fun of me about how often I make muffins.  And when I told her these banana walnut muffins are my new favorite muffin, she replied “you say that after every muffin recipe you make!”  While in the beginning of my Weight Watchers career I was always trying to make recipes that were the lowest points, but I’ve found that...

Cheesy Breadsticks I have to be honest, I think I’ve only had Domino’s cheesy breadsticks once.  Not that I didn’t love them, but I’d rather eat pizza.  That is more insulin worthy!  These breadsticks can definitely be incorporated into your Weight Watchers journey or macros. But I found myself with a batch of sourdough bread, and wanted to make something other than a loaf of...

Cheddar Jalapeno Sourdough As part of my daughter’s employment with me, once I started my sourdough journey in 2024, she requests a loaf of this cheddar jalapeno sourdough every week.  We did take a four month break during the summer, but thankfully we will be back in business for the foreseeable future.  This makes Hannah (and Jacob!) very happy! UPDATE: Since I originally posted this...

Pumpkin Muffins with Protein Powder One of the ways I use up protein powder is in recipes.  I recently got the seasonal Pumpkin Spice Latte Protein Smoothie and decided to make pumpkin muffins with protein powder.  Each muffin is only 5 Weight Watchers points and 172 calories each.  While typically you can use Bizzy15 to save 15% off your Flavcity order, seasonal varieties (such as...

Banana Zucchini Bread Banana bread and zucchini bread are my two favorites.  So why not combine them into a banana zucchini bread?  Is it the middle of July and I am baking?  Yep!  Zucchini is my favorite vegetable, so I always have it on hand.  Each slice of this bread is 7 Weight Watchers points. If you count calories or macros: 210 calories, 2 fat,...

Cherry Cream Cheese Scones Hannah laughs at me that every time I write a new scone recipe, I declare it my favorite.  But these cherry cream cheese scones are my new favorite!  Yes, these come in at 11 Weight Watchers points, but only 237 calories.  It’s worth it to me to enjoy this scone once in a while. Light, fluffy, the perfect amount of sweetness...
