NoOodle Chicken Soup

I am SO excited about today’s Fabulous Food Find, NoOodle, I don’t even know where to begin. Recently, the founder of NoOodle, Chef Terri Rogers, reached out to me and asked if I’d like to try out her product. I was unfamiliar with what NoOodle was, so I immediately went to her website, www.nooodle.com to check it out. And I read that Chef Terri had started creating NoOdle dishes in her restaurant by using the popular Shirataki noodles in some of her recipes. Terri says “Thru lots of research & recipe development I figured a way to “Americanize” a Japanese staple. I am excited to share with you our brand new product line that is different than anything else on the market today.” NoOodle offers both Soup Starters and Meal Starters which feature the guilt free Shirataki noodles, and are just 1 Points Plus per serving! In fact, the entire box (which consists of 2 servings) is still just 1 Points Plus! Terri’s goal is to create a “world where we can eat all the noodles we want without the guilt”. And I am TOTALLY on board with that concept. Keep reading to learn more about NoOodle and to get a 40% off discount code!

Spicy Cucumber Salad Recipe – 1 Points +

June 17, 2014 By 9 Comments
Spicy Cucumber Salad

I am a spicy food fanatic. If it’s spicy, I’ll eat it. One of the good things about that, is that most hot sauces/spicy seasonings are relatively low in Points, so I can use a lot of them to really flavor up my foods without adding on many, if any at all, calories and Points. In fact, my vegetables are often just the vehicle for some spicy sauce or dressing that I love. And this Spicy Cucumber Salad Recipe that I’m sharing today is a pretty fantastic way to eat cucumbers. The siracha based dressing for this salad adds such tremendous flavor with a big kick of heat, but for just 1 Points + per serving. So this is a great Weight Watchers side salad recipe that helps to fill me up without using a lot of Points Plus. I love this salad so much, I’ll often even throw it together for a late night snack The crunch and the flavor help me tame that evening snack beast. :)

gimMe Organic Roasted Seaweed Snacks – 1 Points +

GimMe Roasted Seaweed Snacks

A good friend of mine has been munching on these gimMe Organic Roasted Seaweed Snacks a lot recently, and when she told me that each pack was only 1 Points Plus, I totally understood why. I know what you are thinking though…roasted seaweed…for REAL? But when I decided to give some a try myself, I found them to be crunchy, flaky, salty, and absolutely delicious. These paper thin sheets of seaweed is the same stuff that is used in wrapping many sushi rolls. So, if you’ve had sushi, you can get an idea of the taste. Except these are crispier, and more flavored, so they make a fantastic healthy and low calorie snack to have, sans the sushi roll. Keep reading to learn more…

It’s so creamy, fresh and flavorful, and yet still very low in Weight Watchers Points – each 2 tbsp serving is just 1 Points Plus!

Spicy Egg Drop Soup Recipe – 1 Points +

March 27, 2014 By 7 Comments
Spicy Egg Drop Soup

Soup is one of go to recipes whenever I’m really hungry. I eat a bowl before I eat my lunch or dinner, and then that helps to fill me up, so I don’t overdo it on the main course. And egg drop soup is a delicious and light option. However, a traditional egg drop soup recipe is quite mild. So sometimes, I really want to kick up the flavor notch and I whip up this spicy version instead. It is so fast and easy to make, and is really quite delicious. And at just 1 Points + for a 1 1/2 cup serving, this Spicy Egg Drop Soup is a fantastic Weight Watchers Recipe. Enjoy!

Applegate Uncured Turkey Pepperoni

I have long since been a fan of Applegate’s line of meat and cheese products, but when I saw their new uncured light pepperoni at my local Whole Foods, I literally jumped for joy (so much that the lady nearby looking at yogurts had to come over and ask me what I was so excited about). Applegate’s new Mini Uncured Turkey Pepperoni is a delicious, lighter pepperoni that is not only low in Weight Watchers Points Plus, it’s all natural and nitrate free!! I love cooking with turkey pepperoni, but I won’t feed any meats with nitrates to my kids. But now, I can create some delicious new Weight Watchers recipes using this light pepperoni and not have to worry about that. Yay!! And each 1 oz serving (about 16 slices) is just 1 Weight Watchers Point! Keep reading to learn more…

Or check out the store locator to see which store nearest to you offers them.

Marinated Cherry Tomato Salad Recipe – 1 Points +

January 7, 2014 By 1 Comment
Marinated Cherry Tomato Salad

This Marinated Cherry Tomato Salad is one of my go to Weight Watchers side dish recipes whenever I have an abundance of cherry or sugar plum tomatoes on hand. I often buy a lot of those little tomatoes under the assumption that I’ll eat them all up by enjoying them as a healthy snack, but instead, I usually end up ignoring them. Therefore, I am always left with extra tomatoes. But I like to use them in this super quick and easy salad recipe, and they make a perfect side dish for a variety of meals. I just throw it all together in the afternoon, and then it’s marinated, flavorful and all ready for dinner that evening. Which is AWESOME, because that’s one less thing I have to get done before dinner. And it’s just 1 Points + per serving, which is fantastic if you are watching those Weight Watchers Points. If you want to bulk this salad up more, try adding some red onions and serve over a bed of fresh iceberg lettuce. Or for an extra point or two, toss is some fresh mozzarella cheese – delish!

Ginger Miso Soup Recipe – 1 Points +

Ginger Miso Soup

One of my favorite low calorie side dishes to order when eating out at a Japanese Restaurant is miso soup. It’s a great way to fill up before a meal so I don’t overeat. And when I’m eating at a Japanese restaurant, it’s usually sushi that I’m ordering, and I can sure get myself into trouble overeating that…yum! But I digress…miso soup is a wonderful and delicious way to bulk up my meal without adding more than 1-2 Points. I’ve come to love it so much, that I decided to make my own amped up version at home. Full of vegetables and the wonderful flavors of ginger and garlic, each serving of my Weight Watchers Ginger Miso Soup Recipe is just 1 Points +. I like to pair this with a salad or sandwich for a very satisfying lunch or dinner.

Light Baba Ganoush Recipe – 1 Points +

Healthy Babaganoush

Recently, I was fortunate enough to have some family from Israel staying with us for a few weeks over the holidays, and I got to spend a lot of time watching them work magic in the kitchen. My mother-in-law can cook with eggplants like nobody’s business, and I was determined to master her delicious baba ganoush recipe. In case you’ve never heard of baba ganoush, it’s a middle eastern eggplant dip that is one of the most amazing foods I’ve ever had. The base is roasted eggplants, which add a wonderfully smoky flavor, and then it’s blended with tahini paste, mayonnaise, lemon juice and garlic. Traditionally, it’s loaded with mayonnaise and tahini paste which can make it not so Weight Watchers friendly. However, a few tweaks to my mother-in-law’s version, and I created a flipping’ fantastic low calorie baba ganoush for just 1 Points + for a 1/4 cup serving! Use it as a dip for veggies or pita chips, spread it on a sandwich or wrap, or just eat it straight up with a spoon. And it even gets a better flavor sitting in the fridge for a few days. Any way you choose to eat it, I hope you fall in love with this light baba ganoush recipe as much as I have.
