Breakfast Cookies My twin sister and I have been trying to recreate Weight Watchers friendly breakfast cookies after we bought Baker’s Breakfast Cookies nearly 25 years ago.  While these aren’t exactly it, it’s the closest I’ve gotten to a good breakfast cookie that doesn’t blow your Weight Watchers budget.  Each cookie is only 2 Weight Watchers points! Trying to reduce the WW points in a cookie is difficult, because many of the ingredients added are dates, molasses and coconut sugar.  The only sweetness in my cookies is the banana and the non calorie sweetener.  You could ..read more

Easy Waffle Recipe Growing up I don’t remember having waffles.  But if my mom had this easy waffle recipe maybe that would have been a different story!  Maybe a waffle maker was too expensive, or just another gadget that wouldn’t fit in our tiny kitchen.  My twin sister Jennifer eats waffles at least three times a week.  For me they are a once a month treat.  These big waffles are only 5 Weight Watchers points and 11 grams of protein. How to add protein to waffle recipe Protein powders are a great way to add protein to a waffle recipe. ... The post Easy Waffle Rec ..read more

Cold Brew Coffee Cookies The moment I tried the Caramel Cold Brew M&M’s, I knew I had to turn that flavor into a cookie.

It’s the perfect treat for ..read more

Buffalo Chicken Dip My love of anything buffalo started a long time ago.  And this buffalo chicken dip is everything.  Cheesy, buffalo forward, but not too much because Hannah can eat it.  And while the whole recipe is 35 WW points, its 4 Weight Watchers points for 1/3 cup.  Leftovers can also be used to stuff twice baked potatoes, or rolled into taquitos, or a great dip for veggies. Ingredients: chicken breast – I prefer to cook chicken breasts for this recipe, but to save a step, canned chicken breast works great too whipped cream cheese – this cream cheese...
