This weekend is Super Bowl! Lots of fun and friends and cheering but also … lots of food! Lots of opportunities to consume 100 points per hour with no problem! So how do we tackle this? I have your answer! If you’re anything like me, you want to participate in all the fun but you […]

Oreo Snowballs
Cold and creamy is what I always end up craving at the end of the day. Well, and cookies. But I always crave cookies. It seems that on WW it is pretty challenging to come up with a satisfying dessert without using bananas and without using store bought sugar free cake mix. So I have […]
Meatball Stew
I was raised by my little Sicilian grandma. She was born in Sicily and then came to the US as a very young child when both of her parents died. She was raised in a convent by Nuns until she got married as a teenager. She and my grandpa, who also came over from Sicily […]
Fudge Brownie
Sweets are my weakness! No doubt about it! Chips and salty snacks – you can have them but hot fudge brownies are my Achilles heel! THAT is what I miss in my healthy lifestyle. And yes I know I can eat whatever I want as long as I count the points but what if you […]
Creamy Tortellini and Peas
Tortellini in a creamy pink sauce on WW? Did I read that right? Yes ma’am! You sure did! You will think this came straight from your favorite Italian restaurant! But without all the fat, calories and high points of course! This one is so simple and is a perfect, satisfying lunch because it takes very […]
Perfect Steak
Grilling a good steak is an art! The deep color, the grill marks, the perfect pink on the inside! When you get it right you know it! It’s tender and juicy and you need very little effort to cut it. The flavor is perfection! The problem for me used to be that my steaks were […]
Mashed Potatoes
I thought it was over! I really thought my days of enjoying a plate full of creamy, buttery mashed potatoes had come to an end when I decided to jump in to the WW Lifestyle and finally get this extra weight off! Thankfully, the more I learned about WW the more I realized I could […]
Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings
When I decided to begin a healthy lifestyle journey and get rid of the 40+ lbs I’ve been dragging around, I thought my days of eating hearty comfort foods were gone! No more mashed potatoes, Mac n Cheese, casseroles — and especially no more chicken and dumplings! One of my favorites! Wow was I wrong! […]
Bacon Egg Puff and Bubble
I love this Puff and Bubble recipe. The phyllo dough gives the crust just enough “puff” to create a delicious flaky base and the cheese “bubbles” up to the top for that ooey gooey creaminess! This dish is so satisfying I sometimes have it for dinner! This recipe, like all of my WW recipes, are […]
Vanilla & Almond crunch Parfait
This multi layer creamy yogurt parfait will hit both the sweet and crunchy note! I love this in the morning and even as a snack around 3 o clock! To me, sweetening and flavoring your own Greek Non fat yogurt -or even just plain yogurt – is so much better than the taste you get […]
