Light and Quick - Weight Watchers
I went back on Weight Watchers and have been looking for some quick easy and low point recipes. I came up with one that works out pretty well. It fills you up, is quick and is tasty. Anyway, here it is in case anyone is doing weight watchers and is looking for some ideas.
Ingredients 3 oz. cooked shrimp - Points = 2 1/2 cup of Broccoli Florets - Points = Free 1/2 Cup of Carrots - Points = Free 1/2 cup of Cauliflower - Points = Free 1/2 cup of Portabella Mushrooms / Sliced - Points = Free 2 cloves of Garlic sliced up - Points = Free 2 tsp. Worstorshire Sauce - Points = 1 Garlic Powder and Onion Powder to taste ____________________________ In skillet dump everything in and cook on low until fully cooked and browned. You may have to add a little water. _______________________________ I will eat this a lot for dinner and add a salad to it or some fruit. You can also mix it up a bit and make a surf and turf by adding some filet mignon or even chicken. This is pretty filling and it's extremely easy. |

Hi Janet. Nope it's 3 points for the whole thing. The only ingredient with a point value is the Shrimp which is 2 points per 3 oz. serving and the Worsteshire Sauce. The veggies are all free and you can eat as much as you want. You can even add more veggies to fill yourself up. I eat the whole thing. LOL. Also, if you were to add steak or chicken in place of the shrimp or with the shrimp then you would have to add the point value of what you put in. The serving size is the whole thing. Again that is because the only point value is the shrimp and Worstorshire Sauce everything else is free. Just know that if you add different veggies check for points as some are starchy and are not free. Elaine Last edited by jrsygal37; 06-16-2008 at 11:58 AM. |
