Dinner

My brother loves peanut butter and  I thought of him the whole time I made this spicy peanut noodles with shrimp.  If you were to ask my brother what his favorite food is, it wouldn’t be tacos or pizza.  It would be peanut butter!   Not sure he would eat it with the shrimp, or sugar snap peas for that matter, but hey, I thought about...

My friend Bobby from FlavCity has SO many recipes.  I got his keto cookbook last year and I made a few dishes right off the bat. But like most things in life, it got put to the side and I recently rediscovered it. I made his Spicy Beef Lettuce Cups – I followed his recipe exactly for the beef filling (sans onions!) and made a...

Asian Meatballs These Asian Meatballs are going to be your go to weeknight meal because this dinner is ready in less than 15 minutes.  No one will know this is a Weight Watchers recipe! Recently I did a poll on Instagram and a surprising response was that you asked for take out meals made at home.  This dish would easily be $15 per person for...

This delicious pork BBQ sandwich comes in at only 6 WW smart points - so delicious!

Pasta Frittata is a simple dish that can made with any pasta or veggies. Bucatini pasta is pasta that has a tiny hole in the middle and it’s bronze cut, which means it has extra texture on the outside and held all that delicious cheesy sauce together. What is Hearts of Palm Pasta? It’s not pasta.  Yes, it looks like pasta, but it will never...

Happy Friday!  I love finding inspiration online, and my friend Erica pointed me to an Instagrammer who I recently started to follow, and she said “Biz you have to make these!”  They are like pasta birds nests! I decided to switch her recipe up just a bit – I subbed in one cup cooked pasta and one package of Natural Heaven Hearts of Palm Spaghetti. ...

These KFC Chicken Nuggets will quickly make it to the top of your “must make” recipe list. One of my strongest food memories is visiting my grandparents in Warsaw, Virginia, then driving the what seemed like far distance to the “big town” of Tappahannock and getting Kentucky Fried Chicken.  I loved everything about it.  The crispy spicy chicken, the mashed potatoes and gravy and don’t...

Kung Pao Sloppy Joes You will love these Weight Watchers friendly kung pao sloppy joes! Today is Day 1 of working from home.  I normally get up between 6:20 and 6:45.  Which means my alarm is set for 6:20 but I don’t actually get up until 6:45 after hitting snooze three times! Today I woke up at 7:45.  Jacob works from home so the coffee...

Skip the middle aisle at the grocery store and find Marzetti Simply Dressed Salad Dressing in the produce section - it will make you call in love with salad again!

My sister and I had the chance to meet a fellow WW who was in town to visit her daughter from out of town.   Nancy actually found me through my friend Tina – Nancy was Tina’s 5th grade teacher!  She was so awesome, spunky, down to earth and reminded me a lot of my Mom.  She’s been a retired teacher/school administrator for the last 7...
