If you’ve got a craving for some Barbecue Potato Chips, but don’t want to salvage all your Weight Watchers Points, these “Popped” Potato Chips from Trader Joe’s will definitely satisfy your craving. I LOOOOOOVE BBQ Potato Chips, but it’s hard to find low calorie versions that taste really good, so when I saw these in the store, I was really excited to give them a try. They were fabulous! Each 19 chip serving is just a 2 Point Total. But here’s the best part…if you eat the WHOLE bag (and yes, I sometimes do – I’m human), you are just consuming 8 total points! Though not recommended, it’s not bad for eating a whole bag of chips. Wanna learn more about them? Keep reading!

Trader Joe’s “Popped” Potato Chips

Though not an official Weight Watchers Snack, these incredible chips are an ideal alternative to your conventional potato chip and an ideal treat for anyone trying to cut calories but still enjoy great taste. They have less than half the fat of a regular potato chip but keep the great taste. And they are amazingly light, airy and very flavorful! I’ve also found the the bags have very few broken chips. They aren’t baked OR fried…they are cooked with pressure. I don’t know how they do it, but man, they are GOOD! They also come in regular salted flavor, but the BBQ ones are much better.

Entire bag has 3 servings
Serving size is 19 chips
Serving size = 2 Point Total

The super awesome folks at Yoplait sent me over some samples of their Yoplait Delights Parfait to try out and I was eager to give it a taste.

But when I tried these Yoplait Delights, I was thrilled!!!! SUPER YUMMY!! And each, nicely sized portion, has just 2 Weight Watchers Points! They come in 4 sinful flavor combos, but I only taste tested the Lemon Torte and the Triple Berry Creme and LOVED them!! All 3 grocery stores I went to were out of the Creme Caramel and the Chocolate Raspberry, so I can’t share my thoughts on those flavors yet, but I LOVE…I mean seriously am IN LOVE with anything chocolate raspberry, and creamy caramel flavored goodies also steal my heart, so I can’t wait to get my hands on these low calorie snacks!

Read on, my friends!!

Low Calorie, Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies

They are called Righteous Rounds and are produced exclusively by Trader Joe’s. I can’t find a pic of the package anywhere, but they are in a bright orange bag, with yellow title lettering on a pink background. If you don’t have access to a Trader Joe’s you might have to call a friend or family member who is near one, and have them send you some! And if your Trader Joe’s doesn’t carry these low calorie cookies, ASK THE MANAGER IMMEDIATELY!!
Ok, so let me tell you why these cookies rock….
Part of the magic is that these weight watcher cookies have never been heated to more than 75 degrees. Instead, the moisture of the dough has been taken out, leaving a crispy cookie. This innovative process means that the chocolate chip cookies can retain the goodness of the nutrients in the cookies dough, which includes lycopene and beta -carotene. Both fruit and vegetable concentrates were added to the dough, and they are packed with fiber, making these tasty little cookies righteous indeed. They also feature many of the ingredients of a traditional chocolate chip cookie like brown sugar, vanilla and butter. They also have organic soy protein, molasses and cocoa to bolster great flavor and texture. Oh, and the most important part– they have lots of yummy chocolate chips in them!!
This healthy cookie is an absolute MUST try. Seriously.

Here’s the stats:
Serving Size: 5 cookies
Calories: 130
Total Fat: 4g
Total Fiber: 3g
0 Trans Fat, 4 g of Protein
Weight Watcher Point Total – 2 Point

PLUS, it has 50% Daily Value of Vitamin A, 35% Daily Value of Vitamin C, 10% Daily Value of Calcium, 6% Daily Value of Iron, 30% Daily Value of Thiamin, and 10% Daily Value of Riboflavin.

DISCLAIMER: This is not an official Weight Watchers Cookie. Nor is it a Weight Watchers Recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies.
