When eating out and trying to find good, low calorie Chinese foods, I usually end up ordering the chicken and broccoli, as it’s typically one of the lighter options on the menu. My boredom with this dish inspired me to play around with some ingredients and see if I could come up with a new twist on this popular Chinese food recipe. And that’s how this Lemon Garlic Chicken and Broccoli Recipe was born! This fresh and light meal idea is full of flavor and zing, and is sure to a be a hit with the whole family.

While making some Baked Chinese Egg Rolls the other day, I found myself craving a good, ginger dipping sauce that wasn’t loaded with calories and oil. I usually use Kikkoman’s Sweet & Sour Sauce for dipping, but this time I wanted something different. So after playing around with a few traditional Ginger Soy Dipping sauce Recipes, I finally concocted one that made the grade. This delicious Asian sauce recipe can be used with a variety of your favorite Weight Watchers Chinese Food Recipes. It’s also great as a low calorie salad dressing recipe or meat marinade. Enjoy!

Perfect as a main dish recipe or a side dish, this deliciously light Shrimp Scampi Recipe is a great meal to have in your arsenal. It’s super easy to make, loaded with flavor, and full of protein, and is one of the better baked shrimp scampi recipes I’ve tried. Most traditional shrimp recipes, particularly Lemon Garlic Shrimp, use a LOT of butter. If you are a Weight Watcher, you know that lots of butter = lots of Weight Watchers Points. But with just a 4 Point Total per serving, this slimmed down seafood recipe is a fabulous alternative! Sep 28 2010 Pumpkin Muffins Recipe – 3 Point Total

The end result is my super yummy Oven Baked, Breaded Chicken Finger Recipe with Ranch Dipping Sauce. With just a 4 Point Total, this dish is way better for you than traditional chicken fingers recipes. And with a toddler at home, I love making healthy meals that he can enjoy too. These baked chicken strips were a HUGE hit! I will definitely be adding them to my list of yummy WW Super Bowl Recipes too! Tis the season for savory seasonal fruits and vegetables spiced with those with those flavors that are most appreciated at this time of year! And with Autumn coming into to full swing, the smell of delicious fall foods is in the air! This perfect healthy snack recipe is a great idea for a tasty, low calorie snack that will satisfy those fall food cravings without using up all your Weight Watchers Points. Using fresh pears and apples, I baked them with some tasty spices and a bit of brown sugar. Wowsa!! This tasted so incredibly yummy!! Bake a batch and set them out for your fall gatherings! Or, if you are feeling Martha Stewart – bake and bag them as a healthy alternative to Halloween candy give-outs. And it’s tons of fun to experiment with different types of apples! My favorite was a Granny Smith…the tartness of the apple contrasted deliciously with the sweetness of the pears and spices. Though it’s not an official one of Weight Watchers Recipes, this low cal treat is a Must for anyone trying to minimize their waistline!
