πŸ’™ CHEESESTEAK STUFFED PEPPERS πŸ’™

WW Blue πŸ’™ Plan= 4 points per serving  If you follow me on Instagram (full_of_lemons), then you have seen me make these amazing Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers last week!   Since I have started on Weight Watchers, I have been learning how to make healthier things for myself even when my family likes it another way.  For instance, instead of making myself a full blown cheesesteak on a giant sub roll, I decided to take the same ingredients I would want on my Cheesesteak and instead make it a whole new healthier way.  And that's what I did.... I started with 2 green bell peppers.  Halved them and hollowed them out. I then boiled them in salted water for about 10 minutes.  I then transferred them to a greased baking dish and added some meat (i used Steakums) to each one. I then topped them with sautΓ©ed onions and mushrooms!   After hand grating a block of fresh white cheddar chee...

If you've read my last post,  you know all about my start into the Weight Watchers journey!  I'm keeping track of points and trying to stay away from tons of sugary foods.  I wanted to make something special for my boys so I thought a fun Valentine's themed dessert would be fun!  Turns out, I created this amazingly good sugar free treat that is so easy to make! (And only 5 POINTS ON WW BLUE πŸ’™) All you need is: Sugar free strawberry jello Sugar free chocolate pudding Sugar free whipped cream (I also used a few sprinkles and a chocolate heart for decoration) Make these: Layer the pudding, jello, and whipped cream, twice!  Top with some sprinkles and an chocolate heart! Line them up on a pretty tray and add a few festive wrapped pieces of candy.  Simple,  cute, and delicious! **Other options: top with a fresh strawberry or even a chocolate covered strawberry! πŸ“ Also, you can dip the glass in water and then rim with sprinkles for an extra festive touch!...

Well hi there!  I know it's been a few day but here I am!  Two weeks ago I decided to sign up for Weight Watchers.  They were offering a 3 month free sign up and I was feeling motivated so I signed up. After giving my info and measurements,  they placed me on the BLUEπŸ’™ plan.  (There is also green and purple)  The blue plan offers you more choices in the zero point foods category. These are foods that don't the away from my daily point value, which for me, started at 30.   The zero point foods are mainly fruits and vegetables,  eggs, beans, chicken breasts, and turkey breasts.   I can also use the WW app to keep track of my weight loss,  my daily points,  track my meals, scan barcodes when grocery shopping to look up point value, and to keep me accountable.   It really is easy to navigate and definitely helps!  I've learned how things I used to eat were in very unhealthy point ranges and I can now tailor my ...
