Low Point Weight Watchers Meals There are just some days where at the end of the day, I realize I am low on weight watcher points.  That’s when I rely on these low point Weight Watchers Meals. I will continue to add to this list, but here are several of my favorite low point meals.  Enjoy! Side Note:  The Weight Watcher link is available in...

 This is one of Hannah’s favorite recipes because of how versatile it is. The chicken filling can be made into egg rolls, lettuce wraps, or even put over a bed of rice or noodles.  The combination of all of the flavors in this dish is so perfect and savory, but also very filling! As you know, I hate onions – but if you are an...

The Best Turkey Meatballs Yes, that’s a bold statement, but these are the best turkey meatballs! My secret?  Adding just a bit of pork sausage with the ground turkey – makes all the difference! How to cook ground turkey breast If you are making a burger with ground turkey, check out my post for the perfect turkey burger – a pat of butter in between...

If you have been intimated to make risotto at home, this shrimp risotto is easy! When I was in Italy I bought arborio rice that had turmeric.  The color that turmeric gives this risotto is incredible and pairs really well with the shrimp. Is it better to buy fresh or frozen shrimp? Unless you live near a body of water that you can get fresh...

My twin sister and I have been doing a Chopped Challenge on Instagram based on the suggestions of one of our followers. April suggested these items:  cabbage, bacon, potato and cheese.  We can rely on our pantry and fridge to create a meal, but we have to use all four of those ingredients in some way. The recipes were too long to post in the...

Salt and Pepper Tofu Stir Fry If you haven’t tried tofu in a while, definitely try my salt and pepper tofu stir fry – quick and delicious! There was a restaurant near my old office called Imperial Lamian, and they had THE BEST salt and pepper tofu as one of their appetizers.  Sadly, they had to close due to the pandemic, but every once in...

This easy shrimp fried rice is a great way to sneak in some veggies! My late husband made THE BEST fried rice.  You can check out this video of how he makes it here.  I watched this a couple times today – it made me smile.  Sadly, my fried rice is nowhere near as good as he made it, but this is still really good. ...

This cajun shrimp and grits recipe needs to go to the top of the pile of recipes to make.  So delicious! Two of my Instagram friends, Carla and Shawna put together a mini cooking club.  They picked out this Weight Watcher recipe to be the recipe that everyone makes.  It is so amazing to me how everyone has the same ingredients and instructions and each...

The secret to my vegan tomato soup recipe?  Silken Tofu! A couple weeks ago I bought silken tofu for a pancake recipe, and I never ended up making it.  My lunch out yesterday was 24 points, and I thought for sure I’d be over my healthy range for the day on WW.  Nope!  This vegan tomato soup was made mostly in my blender, and other...

These Italian Turkey Meatballs are perfect for meal prep for the week! Truth be told I used to give ground turkey the stink eye.  We never ate ground turkey growing up so it was out of my wheelhouse and one of those foods I just told myself I didn’t like.  But I love these turkey meatballs!  Side note – one of my favorite pots is...
