Gardein Meatless Sliders – 4 – 5 Points PlusPosted on March 29th, 2013I have always been a huge fan of Gardein’s amazing lineup of meat free products, but I practically did backflips when I recently found there Beefless Sliders and their new Crispy Chick’n Sliders. These entirely vegan sliders taste absolutely amazing, and with the bun included they are only 4 Points Plus for the faux beef sliders and 5 Points Plus for the faux chicken sliders! 
Cilantro Grilled Chicken Breasts Recipe – 3 Points +Posted on March 21st, 2013We’ve been having some lovely weather over the past few weeks, so I convinced my husband to bust out the grill and cook up some of these Thai-inspired Cilantro Grilled Chicken Breasts for me. This is such a simple low calorie marinade recipe that adds such tremendous flavor and moisture to the chicken. 
Chicken Fajitas Recipe – 6 Points +Posted on February 13th, 2013Chicken Fajitas have always been a family favorite around here. My son loves assembling his own fajita, and I love that he’s eating something so healthy. To make this dish Weight Watchers friendly, I made a few adjustments to how the dish is cooked, but I also put together a tomato, lime, and garlic topping to use instead of sour cream or guacamole. 
Broccoli Coleslaw Recipe – 2 Points +Posted on October 25th, 2012Ever since I was a kid, I’ve enjoyed traditional BBQ faire, and coleslaw was always my favorite. But then when I learned that it’s a mayo based dressing and LOADED with fat, calories and cholesterol, I was disappointed. As a Weight Watchers member, I knew that I’d have to seriously limit my coleslaw intake. 
Corn Salad Recipe with Red Pepper and Dill – 3 Points +Posted on September 27th, 2012Creamy, crunchy, flavorful and low calorie, this Corn Salad Recipe with Red Pepper and Dill has just about everything you’d want in a salad. You get the sweetness of the corn, the crunch of the bell peppers, and then a bit of crunchy tang from the pickles. It’s such a delicious and unique corn recipe that makes a very Weight Watchers side dish to go with a huge variety of meals.
