Southern - Page 2Southern Recipes are always delicious! But given the way they are prepared, it’s not always easy to find a good-for-you version of your favorite Southern dishes. Here’s my collection of tasty Weight Watchers Southern Recipes that will keep you on track to reaching your weight loss goals, while still allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods.  Country Potato Salad Recipe with Ham – 3 Points +Posted on May 19th, 2011I’ve been on a Paula Deen kick lately….I just cannot get enough of her delicious, homemade Southern Recipes!! But being a Weight Watcher, there’s no way I could eat her food without consuming almost all of my daily PointsPlus Allowance in one serving. So, I enjoy experimenting with healthier versions of her recipes which allows me all the flavor of the South, but with a LOT less fat and calories.  Banana Blueberry Muffins Recipe – 5 Points +Posted on May 18th, 2011If you are a fan of big, fluffy, fruit filled muffins, you came to the right place today! This easy Banana and Blueberry Muffin Recipe delivers a most delicious low calorie muffin that’s full of good for you ingredients and low in Points +. The average muffin at Starbucks clocks in around 9-12 PointsPlus each…..so why not make a healthier version yourself and save PointsPlus and $$$?  Creamed Spinach Recipe – 2 Points +Posted on May 17th, 2011Inspired by a desire to get my toddler to eat more vegetables and one of Paula Deen’s Recipes, I came up with this healthier version of her Creamed Spinach Recipe, and was really amazed by how yummy it was! Initially, the idea of creamed spinach kinda weirded me out. But I’m willing to try just about anything with cheese on it, and since each serving of this dish came out to just 2 points +, I figured it was worth a shot, as I really wanted a new healthy side dish recipe.  BBQ Chicken Wrap Recipe – 7 Points +Posted on April 28th, 2011BBQ Chicken Salads are one of my favorite healthier entrees to order when I go out to eat. But since a salad isn’t always able to fill me up, I took a traditional barbecue chicken salad recipe and rolled it into a high fiber wrap making it a VERY satisfying, healthy lunch idea.  Banana Cream Cake Recipe – 6 Points +Posted on April 12th, 2011After indulging in this cake at a recent party, I asked for the original recipe, which was from Eating Well, and made a few alterations to make it a bit more Weight Watchers friendly. Plus, I wanted to make it easier….their original banana cream layer cake recipe calls for making your own bavarian cream filling, but I just wasn’t a fan of the flavor or the hassle of preparing it.  Whole Wheat Buttermilk Biscuits Recipe – 3 Points +Posted on March 31st, 2011A couple of weeks ago, I posted a delicious recipe for Country Fried Steak and Gravy, and said I was going to work on a good, low calorie buttermilk recipe to go along with it. Well, it turns out that I already had one! But just for fun, I decided to alter my own version just a bit, and make it with whole wheat flour and reduced fat buttermilk instead.
