Kutya - Updated!

[3 SP per serving] Christmas is coming and that means Kutya in my house. This Ukrainian dish has been my tradition since I can remember. I have tried to healthy-up this recipe before (link here) but this version is much closer to what I grew up with and, due to using Truvia instead of sugar, is much fewer points. Who can resist this sweet dish on a cold morning or as the first dish in a traditional 12 course Ukrainian Christmas meal!

Sweet Hawaiian Crock-Pot Chicken

[6 SP per serving] My mother used to make a fantastic Hawaiian chicken and that taste still lingers in my memories, but with many of the recipes that I grew up on, it is not very healthy. Enter the saviour, Truvia! The brown sugar replacement is fantastic and placed this recipe firmly back on my menu!

Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Butternut Squash and Bacon with Maple Soy Glaze

[3 SP per 1 cup Serving] I happen to love Brussel sprouts, but I know that many others around me do not. With this recipe, the bitterness that normally comes with Brussel sprouts is almost completely gone and replaced with a delicious Maple Soy flavour. Add the turkey bacon and you have a winning dish.

Italian Wedding Soup

[3 SP per 1½ cup serving] Now that December is finally here, and Christmas is only a couple of weeks away, I suppose that I have to admit that winter is here. On the bright side, winter means soup to warm your bones and heat you up from the inside. One of my all-time favourite soups is Italian Wedding and this recipe is a much healthier version. Give it a try, I am sure you'll agree that it is delicious.

Herb-and-Yogourt Baked Whole Salmon Fillet

[0 SP per serving] Right off, you read that correctly, 0 SP per serving. No that is not a typo, it is real. I love salmon, and I really love baked salmon in a creamy dill sauce; unfortunately, creamy dill sauce is a points killer. With this recipe and Weight Watchers Freestyle, this little gem is back on the menu!

Spinach Gratin

[3 SP per serving] Everyone knows someone who says that they hate spinach, but I defy even those people to say that they hate this dish. Creamy spinach with a little bit of nutmeg, baked in the oven and topped with melted cheese! How can anyone say no?

Wednesday, December 6, 2017

Chicken, Bacon & Cheese Mini Bites

[1 SP per serving] I love coming up with new appetizers, especially this time of year. We all have parties to attend or host when the holidays arrive, and these little bites are a perfect addition to your appetizer table. It's also hard to stay on track over the holidays with all those tempting snacks in front of you, but they are only 1 smart point each.

Weight Watchers Freestyle

Welcome FREESTYLE!

Well, Freestyle has launched in Canada on Sunday and it has many, many, many more 0 point foods; more than 200 of them!

Below is a small list of the items that have been made 0 points:
  • Skinless chicken breast
  • Skinless turkey breast
  • Fish
  • Shellfish (shrimp, lobster, oysters, mussels)
  • Eggs (including the yolks!)
  • Beans and lentils
  • Tofu
  • Fruit
  • Vegetables (including corn and peas!)
  • Nonfat plain yogourt
What this means is that most, if not all, of my recipes will need to be updated with the new points. I will be working on them in my spare time. Until I am done, I will not be posting any new recipes... but I am keeping a list of the recipes to add!

Sugar-Free Carrot and Date Cake

[2 SP per Serving] We have been looking for a cake for our little girl to smash next month. I may have found it in this cake. I'll be making this cake this weekend to see if my daughter will like it!

Lightened-Up Shepherd's Pie

[5 SP per serving] Lean ground beef makes keeps the fat and calories low here. Cauliflower is mashed with the potatoes to keep carbs down but still results in a creamy mash. Scallions add a pop of fresh flavour to the topping and tomato paste gives the filling a rich depth of flavour.

Wednesday, November 15, 2017

Black Bean Brownies

[1 SP per serving] Are you looking for a new way to enjoy beans? Well, try this one out. This recipe is, in my opinion, very original and delicious. AND NOW ONLY 1 SP PER SERVING!!

Tuesday, November 14, 2017

Eggplant Tomato Pie

[2 SP per serving] I love eggplant, although I am the only one in the family who does, and this recipe is a fantastic way to showcase it! This delectable pie has it all, breadcrumbs, cheese, eggplant, and tomatoes. Even though this is very close to a vegetarian recipe, it is filling. Go ahead and eat half the pie, that would only be 6 points!

Friday, October 6, 2017

Mock Frosty

[3 SP per Serving] Show me someone who says they don't like Frostys and I'll show you a liar! 😊  Have you ever looked at the number of SPs for a Frosty in the Weight Watchers App, I did, and wow..... 17 SPs for a small! This recipe tastes almost exactly the same, and it is only 3 SPs per serving!

Wednesday, October 4, 2017

Baked Oatmeal with Pumpkin and Bananas

[4 SP per serving] Baked oatmeal with ripe bananas and pumpkin is the perfect way to start your morning! If you have ripe bananas laying around, give this baked oatmeal a try. It’s so good, it almost tastes like a banana-pumpkin nut bread.

Tuesday, October 3, 2017

Baked Green Chile Spinach Artichoke Hummus Dip

[3 SP per serving] I'm sure some of you are rolling your eyes and dread this part of the fall season, but I think there's one thing that we can all agree on. Game Day Food. When it comes to food for the big game, the options are endless. It used to be considered a good spread if there were chips, a container of dip and if you were lucky, chicken wings. Gone are those days! Now people build those crazy snack stadiums. If you haven't seen one, Google it. It's pretty incredible the lengths people go to for game day parties. On Weight Watchers, you cannot go to those lengths, instead, we need to have a much healthier option. This dip is delicious and healthy, so go nuts!

Wednesday, September 27, 2017

Cabbage Soup

[1 SP per serving] This soup is a complete winner when you are hungry simply because it is so low in points. The best part is you can customize the soup to your liking, just make sure you count the points if you are adding something other than veggies. You can also pair it with a nice sandwich.It takes me 20 minutes from start to finish to make this soup. Completely worth the effort.

Strawberry Yogurt Cake

[3 SP per serving] What more do I have to say, other than "fresh strawberry bunt cake"? When you start Weight Watchers, you tell yourself that you will cut out the fattening foods that you love to eat, and you feel a little deprived. With this recipe, you can go back to the food that you love and have a slice of cake!

Monday, September 25, 2017

Chicken & Broccoli Mini Pies

[2 SP per pie] I don't know a single person who does not like chicken pot pie. Unfortunately, chicken pot pie is very often high in points. These little pot pies are reminiscent of the traditional pot pie but much lower in points.

Friday, September 22, 2017

Banana Breakfast Smoothie

[4 SP per serving] I have always loved a breakfast smoothie, they just kick my day off and leave me feeling full until lunch. The problem with smoothies is that they are very rich in points. As a result, I stopped drinking them when I started Weight Watchers. This recipe was featured on the Biggest Loser, and while I do not recommend losing as much weight at a single time as in those shows, I do recommend this version of the smoothie.

Thursday, September 21, 2017

Pumpkin Spice Latte

[1 SP per cup] Its fall folks, so let us jump on board the Pumpkin train. Everywhere I look, I see signs for Pumpkin Spice Lattes and I have to say that I love them. The problem with this is that a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Second Cup or Starbucks (even using Skim Milk) is over 10 SP per cup! I know I can't afford that amount of points on a coffee twice a day. This recipe is the solution to this problem!

Monday, September 18, 2017

Zucchini Lasagna with Zucchini Ricotta

[8 SP per serving] Ok...let me be brutally honest with you, I love pasta and lasagna is on the top of the list. Unfortunately, lasagna is not normally healthy. This recipe helps to solve this issue. The mouthfeel is almost exactly the same and the flavour is delicious, but a little different than your mother's lasagna. Give it a try, I am sure you won't be disappointed.

Thursday, September 14, 2017

Potato Cakes

[3 SP per cake] These quick and easy potato cakes will keep you coming back for more, and at only 3 SP per cake, have a couple of them! They are very easy to make as well, I recommend using those left over mashed potatoes that we all have but end up throwing out at the end of the night.

One-Pot Cabbage Casserole

[1 SP per serving] As a Ukrainian, I love cabbage rolls a little too much. Recently, I was introduced to the German version of cabbage rolls, and I have to say they do hit the spot. This is an easier version of a German cabbage roll; skip the rolling and make it all in a single pot! With fall firmly in place here in Western Canada, it is time to start with the comfort food that "sticks to your ribs and warms you up from the inside" as my mother would say.

Tuesday, September 12, 2017

Old Fashioned Rice Pudding

[4 SP per serving] Right off, I'd like to be perfectly clear, this is not as good as my mother's recipe, but that would be a far cry from something that is healthy. This is a take on my mother's recipe that has been tweaked to be much healthier. I grew up eating this stuff, and I have to say that it is delicious but fattening. So in this recipe, I replaced the sugar with Truvia and the butter with no-fat margarine. The taste is affected a little, but only a little, and it drops from 7 SP to 4. This is healthy enough to eat for breakfast, which I highly recommend.

Monday, September 11, 2017

Sweet and Sour Turkey Meatballs

[1 SP per serving] A perfect party appetiser! Having been invited to two different pot luck meals this past weekend, I was searching for something different to bring. This dish popped up, and while I was not able to make them (both meals were outside with no access to power) I do mean to make this in the near future!

Friday, September 8, 2017

Roasted Garlic Mushrooms

[0 SP per serving] Yes, that's correct folks, this is 0 points for each serving or only 1 point for the whole recipe! I've been looking for an appetiser that is cheap on the points but very tasty on the tongue and I came across this little gem. Reading through the recipe, the only item that could possibly give points is the balsamic vinegar! And these just taste so good.

Thursday, September 7, 2017

Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes

[2 SP per cupcake] With October fast approaching, and our pumpkin patch starting to produce, it is officially Pumpkin season. What better way to celebrate this time of year than with pumpkin pie! On the Weight Watchers plan, pumpkin pie is a no-no, so these little beauties are a much healthier option and they taste fantastic. These are even healthy enough to eat for breakfast.

Wednesday, September 6, 2017

Turkey Fajita Stuffed Zucchini

[3 SP per serving] I laid off the zucchini recipes for a couple of days, but there are still zucchinis in the garden, so on to our next candidate. This is a different take on the stuffed zucchini from the previous with a very nice flavour of fajitas. I personally love fajitas and this is just a fantastic taste.

Tuesday, September 5, 2017

Fully Loaded Baked Turnip Fries

[3 SP per serving] Are you new to Weight Watchers or a similar diet? Do you miss loaded french fries? If so, then this one is for you. I understand that many of you have pre-labelled turnips as disgusting, but you need to give this recipe a chance people!

Wednesday, August 30, 2017

Farmer's Casserole

[3 SP per serving] Simple, easy and super delicious! You won’t believe how good this farmer casserole is. I like to prepare breakfasts for the week ahead of time and this one is very easy to reheat in the microwave or toaster oven for fast and easy breakfasts.

Tuesday, August 29, 2017

Slow-Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

[2 SP per Bowl] Continuing to get ready for the fall, here is another family favourite. This chicken tortilla soup is hearty, tasty and makes you feel warm all over. It can even be made in the slow cooker!

Monday, August 28, 2017

Hamburger Soup

[1 SP per serving] As fall is approaching, it is time to start looking at soups again. This soup is extremely filling and delicious. It can be made in a slow cooker to save time and energy.

Thursday, August 24, 2017

Peanut Butter Chocolate Drizzled Cookies

[2 SP per cookie] If you love peanut butter chances are you love chocolate and peanut butter, I mean let's face it the two just go together like bread and butter! And so they should… and they should never I repeat never be apart! And so these peanut butter chocolate drizzled cookies were born…. and guess what?? They are only 2 smart points each... that's right, so go ahead and eat a few.

Wednesday, August 23, 2017

Apple Nut Crisp

[3 SP per serving] This nutty apple crisp is delicious. I love apple crisp. Usually, you get apples, oats, brown sugar, and a little butter. With the nuts added, this just has another layer of deliciousness. Serve with optional coconut flakes and ice cream.

Monday, August 21, 2017

Slow Cooker Santa Fe Meatloaf

[2 SP per Serving (2 Slices)] Oven-baked meatloaf can turn dry, but the moisture-sealing magic of the slow cooker makes this one melt in your mouth. Replacing the normal ground beef with ground turkey breast makes this dish very healthy.

Parmesan Zucchini Fritters With Lemon Garlic Yogurt Sauce

[5 SP per Serving] One of the best things about summer is all of the fresh produce. Out of all of the vegetables in my summer garden, zucchini is the most versatile. You can add it to muffins, oatmeal, cupcakes, pasta and more. 5-ingredient Parmesan Zucchini Fritters with Lemon Garlic Yogurt Sauce are an easy snack or appetizer that is ready in less than 25 minutes!

Thursday, August 17, 2017

Bloomin' Apples

[6 SP per Serving] A friend posted a recipe on Facebook that looked absolutely amazing, and I had to know just how many SPs the recipe was. In the original form, it was close to 10 points per apple, which is not too bad for a desert, in this modified recipe, I was able to bring it down to 6 for each apple. Fewer points than a slice of pie and this looks like it will taste much better!

Wednesday, August 16, 2017

Zucchini Squares

[2 SP per Square] So this year, our garden only really produced a few peas, a couple of pumpkins are and a whole lot of zucchinis. So I've been looking around for all sorts of different ways to use zucchini, and this one looks great!  Have to try this side dish; a good side dish can add a lot towards turning a plate of food into a really good meal.

These squares have the texture of a crustless quiche. They are light, fluffy, flavorful, cheesy and healthy. They are a perfect side to any meat dish or as a late night snack.

Thursday, August 10, 2017

Broccoli Chicken Zucchini Boats

[2 SP per serving] We've all seen stuffed peppers and stuffed jalapenos, now it's time for a stuffed zucchini! The texture of the zucchini after being roasted will still have a nice bite that stands up to the cheesy gooey filling inside. It's a perfect lunch for you to have when you want something a little out of the ordinary. The filling on the inside is just perfect and really comes together with all of the flavours. It's almost a chicken vegetable medley with cheese and sour cream holding everything together. If you have extra points, I certainly advise adding bacon as it's a perfect addition to this. Aside from adding sour cream, you could do a light drizzle of ranch on top just to make the flavours pop that much more!

Thursday, July 20, 2017

Spiralized Summer Bowls with Hoisin Peanut Sauce

[3 SP per serving] These quick and easy Spiralized Summer Roll Bowls with Hoisin Peanut Sauce made with spiralized carrots and cucumbers were inspired by shrimp summer rolls. This recipe takes that inspiration and turns it into a quick and healthy meal.

Monday, June 26, 2017

Spicy Shrimp Tacos with Garlic Cilantro Lime Slaw

[7 SP for 2 Tacos] This dish just sounds amazing, and with only a couple of tweeks from the original author's version, it is now Weight Watchers friendly. This is delicious spice-loaded shrimp layered on smashed avocado topped with a cabbage slaw that is topped with a homemade creamy lime sauce and topped with crumbly, cheese. Wrapped in a corn tortilla with a wedge of lime squeezed over the top? Don’t mind if I do.

Friday, June 16, 2017

Lasagna Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

[4 SP per Mushroom] The portobello mushrooms are covered with a layer of marinara sauce, followed by a mixture of cottage cheese, basil and chopped spinach.  I also added an egg to help set the filling up in the mushroom. These may not look like too much, but they are tasty!

Thursday, June 15, 2017

Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Banana Cookies

[2 SP per Cookie] You want cookies and you want them to be filled with chocolate chips….but you also want peanut butter too? Well too bad....kidding. These chocolate peanut butter chip banana cookies are so tasty... the texture is a mixture of a soft and chewy cookie due to the banana and that might not be for everyone but the taste is decadent and they are bursting with lots of chocolate & peanut butter chips. These cookies are also egg free. 2 SP each.

Monday, June 5, 2017

Pizza Wonton Cups

[4 SP per cup] With spicy sausage and pepperoni, along with the toppings of your choice, I think you'll find these are full of flavor. They're family friendly and the leftovers are perfect for lunches. You could even make these as finger foods for a party, book club or sporting event!

Friday, June 2, 2017

Chicken Crack-Slaw

[1 SP per Serving] So I was at a Weight Watchers meeting a few months back and someone was talking about this "crackslaw." I had to know more about it. Crack slaw is basically just a simple stir fry made with cabbage and ground beef that is supposed to be so incredibly delicious that it’s addictive. Just like crack. Given that it’s high in protein, and low in sugar and carbs, I knew this would be a perfect Weight Watchers recipe to try. I choose to use ground chicken instead of ground beef to lower the fat content, added in some broccoli slaw I had on hand, and made a few tweaks to the seasoning. I choose to use ground chicken instead of ground beef to lower the fat content, added in some broccoli slaw, and made a few tweaks to the seasoning.

Single-Serving Lemon Poppy Seed Mug Cake

[3 SP per serving] An easy recipe for a tender lemon poppy seed cake that's ready in just 10 minutes! No butter, eggs, refined flour or sugar & only 101 calories! This tender mug cake is perfect for any lemon lover - or when you're craving something sweet and don't want any tempting leftovers around! It's perfectly sweet and tender, and it's bursting with bright sunshiny flavor.

Thursday, June 1, 2017

Turnip Noodles & Chicken Sausage

[4 SP per Serving] Seriously, who ever thought that you could spiralize turnips? While I have not made this recipe yet, I seriously look forward to it!

Thursday, May 18, 2017

Sweet Potato Pancakes

[1 SP per Pancake] These sweet potato pancakes are perfect for kids and adults both. You definitely don't have to be a baby to enjoy these. They’re also paleo, gluten free and dairy free.
