This recipe is out of this world good. Not sure how its 5 pts I put it into a recipe/calorie counter and it was only 3.5 but I did use 5pts when I gave myself points. I also added finely chopped spinach. So YUM! GREAT GREAT recipe!!! I took it to my WW meeting last week and had people come back this week and really love it.

This recipe is the best I've tried, delicious! I served it over Steam Fresh brown rice, 1.5 points for 1/2 cup.

Currently, Miracle noodles are only available for purchase online. :( But ask your local grocery store manager to look into ordering some for his/her store! Good luck!

Yes, but you'll have to calculate up all of the nutritional stats of each ingredient in order to get the new Weight Watchers Point Total.

just a quick question–is there anyway to modify the point value if I only used 1 lb of chicken breast?

The problem with the Weight Watchers Recipe Builder is that it's accuracy can be questioned depending on the ingredients that you use. The WW Recipe Builder is very generic and does not account for the vast differences in calories, fat and fiber of the ingredients, depending on brand. Therefore, you are only getting an average Points Value based on generic nutritional info. To be certain of your exact Points value, it's always best to calculate the nutritional data of t he ingredients you use in each of your Weight Watchers Recipe.

I put this in the Weight Watcher recipe Bulder and got 7 point for 4 servings…

It's hard to say…the serving size will vary depending on the size/shape of the ingredients. So, the best thing to do is to figure a total of 45 Points for the whole recipe. Then, just divide the dish into as many equal sized portions as you plan on serving, and take that number and divide into 45. For example, if you divide the recipe into 5 servings, then each serving is 9 Weight Watchers Points. Because the serving size will vary, the best thing to do is just to equally divide out all the portions — even if you aren't using them right away. You can always throw a few servings into the fridge or freezer for a fast and easy meal to reheat when you are hungry. :)
