Tiny Apple Pie Tarts: 3 Weight Watchers Smart Points

I’m not kidding.  3 Smart Points.  For all five.  When you stop cheering and can listen again let me know. Ok are we ready? This is going to be the worlds shortest post.  First because it’s so simple.  Second because my husband surprised me with an air fryer today….and I’ve […]

Honey Ginger Carrots: 2 Weight Watchers Smart Points / 2 Points Plus

Candy.   My husband doesn’t eat carrots.  He doesn’t like them raw. Not cooked. Picks them out of his teriyaki chicken and shrimp at the local hibachi grill.  The only chance I had to slide this one past him was to use Trader Joe’s Carrots of many colors.  He thinks […]

Fluffer Nutter Bites: 1 Weight Watchers Smart Point / 1 Points Plus

Short and sweet.  Very sweet. Thanksgiving.  Christmas.  Daughter’s BIrThDaY followed by 1st wedding anniversary. Bam! New Year’s Day.  I’m ready for a nap. It’s not like these dates change.  We all know they are coming.  Some why am I soooo tired? Enough about me, you’re tired too.  Let’s keep this […]

Mac & No Cheese: 4 Weight Watchers Smart Points / 4 Points Plus (approximately 6 servings)

I’ve been awol.  Two of my reasons for beginning this journey have been in and out of the hospital.  And I am the medical power of attorney for both.  And the primary care taker.  And bonus…they couldn’t be anywhere near each other.  I’m so giddy to be at home sitting […]

Spicy Palmetto Deviled Eggs – 1 WW Freestyle Smart Point per serving (6 servings)

02/04/18 update:  only 1 WW Freestyle Smart Point per serving! Hubby’s exact words “those eggs.  Are there more?  If not can you make more?”   He doesn’t ask for seconds often.  And when he asks me to make  more of something after I’ve already cleaned up I know it’s a […]

Bacon Wrapped Asparagus

03/20/17 Update:  BONUS, you can make this in your Air Fryer in only 8 minutes!  (see update below) Bacon. Oh you wanted more information? I thought for sure bacon would be enough. I love tender fresh asparagus. Hubby is not such a fan. I rarely buy it because I know […]

TJ’s Five Below Club:  BLT Deviled Eggs – 1 WW Freestyle Smart Point per serving

02/04/18 update:  now only 1 WW Freestyle Smart Point per serving! If you’ve been following the hardboiled egg saga in my Facebook Support Group or you follow @ifyouhaveanegg on Instagram you know I can’t boil an egg.  Well I can, but by the time I get done you can’t peel […]

Chocolate Espresso Frozen Whoopie Pie – 5 Weight Watchers Smart Points (or 1/2 for 3SP)

When we first switched to Smart Points I fought.  I rebelled.  I dug my heels in.  Hard.  Too many of my beloved snack foods were suddenly double and a handful triple the number of points they had been just the Tuesday before.  I would even say I was perturbed. But […]

Five Below Club: Glazed Carrots 1 Weight Watchers Smart Point per serving

Three ingredients.  Ok four if you count the water.  When I say we can do this I’m serious.  We.  Can. Do. This. Nana has made this newest delight two weeks in a row.  I’m a firm believer that three times is a charm so I will be advocating that we […]

TJ’s Five Below Club:  Jalapeno Artichoke Crusty Bread – 8 Weight Watchers Smart Points 

This is it people.  The release of the If You Have An Egg app featuring a Trader Joe’s Shopping Guide is almost upon us.  It’s so close I can taste it.  Almost literally.  As in we had dinner entirely from the Shopping Guide tonight.  And we are full…and happy.  And […]
