You get 13 mini Whole Grain rice cakes for just 3 Points Plus. Light, crispy and sweet, they make great Weight Watchers snacks.  Trader Joe’s Low Calorie Queso Cheese Dip – 0 Points PlusPosted on September 30th, 2011Man, I love Trader Joe’s….what did I ever do before this store existed? Just recently, I was spotted their Queso Cheese Dip on the shelf, and was REALLY craving some. I almost walked away, assuming that it’d be super fattening and way too many Points Plus, but I decided to pick it up and just have a look. Well I’m sure glad I did!!! I was BLOWN AWAY by what I saw on the nutritional label…each 2 tbsp serving has 0 Points Plus!!!  Trader Joe’s Turkey Meatballs – 3 Points PlusPosted on September 23rd, 2011There are many many times when I just don’t feel like cooking, no matter how hungry I am, or how fabulous the recipe is. And now with a new baby and toddler taking up all time and energy, these times are much more frequent. Therefore, it’s super important for me to have some go to meals that I get on the table fast, that are Weight Watchers friendly, and that taste good! One of favorite quick and easy meals are these low calorie Turkey Meatballs from Trader Joe’s.  Applegate Organic Beef Hot Dogs – 2 Points PlusPosted on September 9th, 2011Hot Dogs have always been a staple in my diet…they are quick and easy to cook, are mostly inexpensive, and let’s face it….pretty damned delicious. Though, when I was pregnant, I avoided eating them because of all the nitrates in most brands. So when I found these Organic Beef Hot Dogs from Applegate, I was pretty excited to give them a try!  Gallo Light Italian Dry Salame – 2 Points PlusPosted on September 2nd, 2011Though this product has been on the market for some time now, I was surprised that not a lot of people know about it. And it’s just too good not to be shared again. Gallo makes an amazingly yummy Light Italian Salami that gives you 5 slices for just 2 Points Plus!  Kashi TLC Pita Crisps – 3 Points PlusPosted on August 19th, 2011I’ve always been a big fan of Kashi products, and when they released their new line of TLC Pita Crisps, I was totally excited to give them a try. I love a good crunchy snack, especially pita chips, but it’s not always easy to find ones that are both yummy and Weight Watchers friendly. These new Kashi Pita Crisps have just 3 Points Plus per serving, and each serving is 11 crisps.
