Weight Watchers White Bean Turkey Chili Recipe

Ingredients:
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound extra lean ground turkey (SHOULD BE ABOUT 120 CALORIES PER 4 OZ)
- 2 (4 ounce) cans canned green chile peppers, chopped
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Kosher salt to taste
- ground cayenne pepper to taste
- ground white pepper to taste
- 2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 cup fat free Half & Half
- 2 – 3 cups fat free chicken broth (add as needed if chili is too thick)
- 1/2 cup reduced fat, shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup green onions

**OPTIONAL: Top with 1 tbsp of reduced fat sour cream (will not affect overall Points value)
*Note: The White Bean Chili in the picture shows some pomegranate seeds and celery on top of the sour cream for garnish, which is a nice idea! But I used the reduced fat cheese and green onions instead.

Directions:
In a large pot over medium heat, or in a crock pot on medium, combine the onion, garlic and ground turkey and saute for 10 minutes, or until turkey is well browned. Add the chile peppers, cumin, oregano, cinnamon, salt, cayenne pepper, and white pepper to taste and saute for 5 more minutes.
Add one can of the beans and the chicken broth to the pot. Take the second can of beans and puree them in a blender or food processor. Add this to the pot along with the Half and Half. Stir well and simmer for 10 minutes. If you are using this as a crock pot recipe, let simmer on low heat for about 2-4 hrs. Top each serving with 1/8 cup of reduced fat shredded Monterey Jack cheese, green onions, and 1 tbsp of reduced fat sour cream (optional). Recipe makes 4 HUGE servings.

Serving size is about 2 cups

Fried fish sandwiches are SO incredibly good. But typically, they are dripping with grease and loaded with extra and unnecessary fat and calories. So when I found this Weight Watchers Fish Sandwich Recipe for the Momentum Plan, I was really excited to give it a try! I made a few alterations to it, knocked a whole Point off the original recipe and added more fiber. And it turned out really, really GOOD!!! It’s technically not “fried” – it’s a baked fish sandwich recipe. But it delivers a very similar (if not, better) taste and has a LOT less fat and calories. Plus the fact that it packs in so much protein and fiber makes it an excellent Momentum Recipe to incorporate into your Weight Watchers New Year’s Diet Plan! Serve it up with some tasty 1 Point Butternut Squash French Fries, and you’ve got yourself one AMAZINGLY yummy low Weight Watchers Points meal!

Weight Watchers Momentum Plan “Fried” Fish Sandwich Recipe

- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 1/4 pound cod fillet, (four 5 oz pieces)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
Combine Fiber One crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Coat both sides of each cod fillet with mustard and then turn fish in Fiber One crumbs mixture to coat. Arrange fillets on baking sheet and spray surface with cooking spray. Bake until fish is fork-tender and coating is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Place fish on rolls and top each with 2 lettuce leaves and 1/4 of tomato and onion slices.
