This is an immune-boosting recipe from the dieticians at Mother Earth News which I have changed a little. I use to get the Herb Companion for a very long time and they have now joined Mother Earth News so I thought I would give this new magazine a try.
I would serve this for lunch and not breakfast as Weight Watcher’s suggests. It is very good and I like the addition of avocado. Per sandwich it is worth 6 points.
I like to prepare these ribbons ahead of time and then cook briefly in a butter/olive oil mixture. This recipe is quick and is a very tasty side dish that goes well with any entrée. The second recipe is from Midwest Living magazine and the third is a Weight Watcher’s recipe which includes goat cheese. Just … Continue reading
These subs would be great to serve during football season or any time you would like a different kind of sandwich. I always like to use my own meatball and sauce recipe (see Spaghetti with Meatballs in a Marinara Sauce for my recipes). You can use your own recipes or follow the recipe below.

So, I bought Skinny Cow Strawberry Cheesecake low fat ice cream (available at 2 stores) instead and made it a strawberry smoothie. Now, this I will have for dessert and not in the morning. A special treat… See … Continue reading
Mardi Gras is just around the corner and this new Cajun dish sounded good to me and it was a “thumbs up” for this new recipe. It is a Weight Watcher’s recipe worth 8 points for 1/2 cup of rice and 2 cups of the shrimp mixture. Picture taken 1-25-19
How about cooking these pork medallions for Valentines Day in heart-shaped parchment paper? This method of cooking keeps this dish so moist and tender and is a Weight Watcher’s recipe worth 5 points per serving.
I am always looking for a new Weight Watcher’s recipe with an Oriental flair. This is a great way to get some of your daily requirement of vegetables. Once again I have altered the recipe a little to fit my tastes; usually it is mainly the vegetables. There are 7 points per 1 cup serving. I wondered … Continue reading
