Extra Crispy Fries (Homemade) These extra crispy fries (homemade) are hands down THE BEST FRIES I’VE EVER MADE.  And I’ve made a lot over the years.  One problem I was always running into is that the fries would be crisp within the first five minutes of them coming out of the fryer, only to get soggy and limp minutes later. These extra crispy homemade French...

Easy Chinese Cabbage Stir Fry This easy Chinese cabbage stir fry is a great side dish that I think the whole family will enjoy.  Recently I was at an event where I met a woman named Ting (you can check out her two Instagram pages HERE and HERE), and I started following her.  She posted this recipe and said if you think cabbage if boring,...

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...

Tofu Masala I recently discovered Vegan Scratch Kitchen on Instagram, and I drool over most of his dishes.  When I saw that he made tofu masala it immediately went on the top of the list for things to make.  While this is 10 Weight Watchers points, each tofu serving is only 348 calories.  And I could do shots of this masala sauce! What did we...

Creamy Vegetable Soup When most people say “it’s soup season!” I am of the camp that every day is soup season.  Even if it’s 90 degrees outside.  But this creamy vegetable soup is perfect for this time of year, when the leaves are crunchy under your feet on a walk and you can slightly see your breath in the air.  Best yet, it’s under 160...

How to cook shishito peppers The first time I had shishito peppers in a restaurant, I immediately needed to learn how to cook shishito peppers at home.  If you’ve ever wondered how to cook shishito peppers, this quick and easy recipe is for you.  These pan blistered shishito peppers are tossed in a savory Asian sauce made with soy, rice vinegar and sesame oil.  It’s...

Silken Tofu Pudding If I didn’t make this silken tofu pudding myself, I would never guess that there is tofu in it.  While I am known for my Weight Watchers recipes, this dessert is 9 Weight Watchers points.  However, it’s only 238 calories per serving, so I am enjoy this without any guilt. The base of this recipe is not mine.  Sarah’s Vegan Kitchen is...

Sticky Tofu If you’ve never fallen in love with tofu before, this just might be the recipe to change your mind. Sticky tofu is everything you didn’t know you were missing: crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and coated in a glossy sauce that’s sweet, tangy, and just the right amount of spicy. It’s bold, balanced, and seriously addictive. I love serving it...

Peanut Butter Banana Oat Bars These peanut butter banana oat bars, described by Hannah, are the perfect balance between banana bread and chewy granola bars.  And they are sweet enough for her!  Coming in at only 5 Weight Watchers points per bar and only 183 calories, I am in love. For the record, I am a salty girl, not a sweet girl.  Not to say...
