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.

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!

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!

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.

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!
