2/1/2014 RedPepperPestoPizza Red Pepper Pesto Pizza Meat Free But Delicious Desperation Dinner Fake-Out/Take-Out Desperation Dinner *Points+ Value: 8 Calories: 306 Fat: 13 Carbs: 32 Fiber: 2 Protein: 18 Servings: 4 (generous) 8 Tablespoons reduced fat ricotta cheese 1 teaspoon olive oil 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon dried basil 1 (12 oz) Boboli Thin Crust pizza crust 2 Tablespoons refrigerated Pesto (ready made) 1 large red bell pepper (cut into strips) 1 cup shredded part skim mozzarella 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon pepper Preheat oven to 375. Line baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Put red pepper slices on foil, toss with olive oil, then bake for 15 minutes or until tender. Remove peppers from baking sheet and set aside. Wipe off foil, spray again with non-stick cooking spray and put Boboli on cookie sheet for 5 minutes to pre-cook. Stir together the ricotta, basil and garlic powder, blending well. Spread Boboli with ricotta mixture, then dollop on pesto and spread over ricotta Then top with mozzarella.

Cooking Tips: If you really want to "gourmet" this up a bit and make it taste more like an authentic italian flatbread, saute 2 cloves of garlic in two teaspoons of olive oil (you'll need to use a tiny saucepan). Use sauteed garlic in place of the garlic powder. Picky Eater/Non-Dieter Tips: Maybe keep the red peppers off their portion of the pizza. *NOTE: Shrinking On A Budget is not affiliated with Weight Watchers International in any way, and Weight Watchers has not reviewed this recipe for accuracy or suitability for WW members.

2/1/2014 TacoSaladTurkey Double Duty/Plan Ahead: Cook an extra pound of ground turkey to use with Shepherd's Pie. Taco Salad Meal-In-One Fake-Out/Take-Out *Points+ Value: 8 Calories: 275 Fat: 16 Carbs: 21 Fiber: 6 Protein: 21.5 Servings: 4 32 ounces lean ground turkey (you'll use one pound for Shepherd's Pie) 1.25 ounce package reduced sodium taco seasoning 1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped 1 small sweet yellow pepper, chopped 1/3 cup frozen (thawed) chopped onion 6 garlic cloves, minced 1-1/2 cups salsa 1/4 cup fat free plain greek yogurt 1/2 cup canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained 2 teaspoons chili powder 1 teaspoon ground cumin 8 cups torn romaine 1/2 cup 2% sharp cheddar 2 plum tomatoes (chopped) 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves (parsley) Puree salsa in blender or small food processor. Remove 3/4 cup of the pureed salsa from blender and set aside. To the remaining salsa in blender, add yogurt and blend to make salad dressing. Spray a large skillet with non-stick cooking spray and cook peppers and onion over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until tender. Remove from skillet and set aside. Spray skillet with non-stick spray again and cook turkey for 6-7 minutes or until no longer pink, breaking up turkey into crumbles; Add garlic and cook for one minute, stirring often. Remove half of turkey and reserve, allowing it to cool before refrigerating (reserve for Shepherd's Pie another night). To remaining pound of turkey in skillet, stir in taco seasoning and reserved 3/4 cup of the pureed salsa. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce to simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes, adding a bit of water if sauce gets too thick. Stir in beans and reserved peppers; simmer for another 5 minutes to heat through. Divide romaine among four plates. Top with turkey mixture; sprinkle with cilantro. Top each salad with 2 Tablespoons shredded cheddar, diced tomatoes and 3 Tablespoons yogurt/salsa dressing. Cooking Tips: Don't forget to remove the 3/4 cup salsa out of the blender before adding yogurt. Be sure and crumble the turkey as much as possible as it cooks. The smaller pieces absorb more of the flavor. If you are not cooking the extra turkey for Shepherd's Pie, use only 3 cloves of garlic. Picky Eater/Non-Dieter Tips: Pull taco meat out of the skillet before adding the peppers and beans. Serve on corn chips with lots of cheddar. *NOTE: Shrinking On A Budget is not affiliated with Weight Watchers International in any way, and Weight Watchers has not reviewed this recipe for accuracy or suitability for WW members.

Cooking Tips: I don't usually recommend fat free products, but it works well in this dish. Have side dish ready since this is best served immediately. Picky Eater/Non-Dieter Tips: Separate the vegetables from the pasta for their serving. Consider melting some butter to serve over their tortellini or just serve plain. *NOTE: Shrinking On A Budget is not affiliated with Weight Watchers International in any way, and Weight Watchers has not reviewed this recipe for accuracy or suitability for WW members.

2/1/2014 sausageandpeppers2 Sausage, Potato and Pepper Bake Double Duty/Plan Ahead Comfort Food Lightened Up *Points+ Value: 8 Calories: 286.2 Fat: 12.6 Carbs: 26.9 Fiber: 4.3 Protein: 22 Servings: 4 4 sweet and/or hot Italian turkey sausage links (cut crosswise into thirds)(you'll use all but one link of a 1.22 oz. package) 1 pound small red potatoes, washed and each cut in half 1 large (about 1 pound) sweet onion, cut into 12 wedges 2 red bell peppers, cut lengthwise into 8 pieces (total of 16 pieces) 1/2 cup pepperoncini peppers (drained)(optional) 1 tablespoon(s) olive oil 1.5 teaspoons italian seasoning 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper Preheat oven to 450 F. In 15 1/2" by 10 1/2" jelly-roll pan, combine sausages, potatoes, onion, peppers, olive oil, italian seasoning, salt and pepper and pepperoncini if using; toss to coat. Roast sausage mixture 30 to 35 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender and sausages are lightly browned, stirring oncehalfway through roasting. For each serving tonight, plate 3 pieces sausage 3 wedges onion, 1/4 of the potatoes and 4 wedges peppers. Cooking Tips: For easy clean-up, I recommend coating the cookie sheet with aluminum foil before adding sausage mixture. Test one piece of sausage for doneness. Turkey sausage must be thoroughly cooked. Picky Eater/Non-Dieter Tips: This is a picky eater's dream since they can pick and choose what they want from the mixture. I recommend mild or sweet sausage instead of hot (although hot turkey sausage is still mild on the heat scale). *NOTE: Shrinking On A Budget is not affiliated with Weight Watchers International in any way, and Weight Watchers has not reviewed this recipe for accuracy or suitability for WW members.

2/1/2014 herbedtilapiawithpineapplerelish Herbed Tilapia with Pineapple Relish Easy Gourmet 6 Ingredients or Less *Points+ Value: 3 Calories: 152 Fat: 4 Carbs: 7.8 Fiber:.5 Protein: 21.7 Servings: 4 (1 pound) tilapia non-stick cooking spray 2 teaspoons olive oil 2 teaspoons Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb, Original or Lemon-Pepper 1/2 teaspoon salt (divided) 1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, drained 3 green onions, sliced 1/3 cup chopped radishes (from salad bar if you have one) 1/8 ground red pepper (cayenne) Cut fish into 4 (4 ounce pieces). To make relish: Combine pineapple, green onions, radishes, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 of the ground red pepper in a bowl. Taste to see if spicy enough. Add remaining ground red pepper to taste. Set aside. Line broiler pan or cookie sheet with foil and spray foil with non-stick cooking spray and lay fish on foil with space between each piece. Pat tops of fish dry with a paper towel, then drizzle each of the 4 pieces of fish with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil. Using your fingers or the back of a spoon, spread the oil over the top of the fish. Sprinkle evenly with herb seasoning and salt. Broil fish 5 1/2 inches from heat 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Top each piece of fish with 1/4 cup pineapple relish. Serve immediately. Cooking Tips: *When dividing the fish into 4 equal pieces, keep in mind that you need to factor in thickness. If you have a food scale, I recommend you use it for this recipe. Just know that a 4 ounce piece from a thicker section of the fish may only be 4 inches wide, while a 4 ounce piece from the end of the fish may be 6-8 inches wide. *Use only 1/2 of the recommended red pepper initially, then taste salsa. Add rest of red pepper to taste. The pineapple takes the edge off the heat, but you still need to adjust to your particular taste. *If you have it on hand, Mrs. Dash Lemon Pepper is the best option, but the other varieties will work well also. Picky Eater/Non-Dieter Tips: Sprinkle their fish with just salt and pepper. While fish is cooking, melt 2 Tablespoons butter in microwave. Remove and add 2 teaspoons lemon juice to butter. Spoon over the top of their fish. *NOTE: Shrinking On A Budget is not affiliated with Weight Watchers International in any way, and Weight Watchers has not reviewed this recipe for accuracy or suitability for WW members.

Greek Marinated Chicken Company Worthy Comfort Food Lightened Up *Points+ Value: 5 Calories: 222.3 Fat: 8.4 Carbs: 1.1 Fiber: 0 Protein: 34.1 Servings: 4 20 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast 1/2 cup fat free plain greek yogurt 1 Tablespoon olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano zest from 1 medium lemon 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon each salt and freshly cracked pepper small pinch ground red pepper (cayenne) 1/2 cup fresh parsley (chopped) Cut chicken into 4 ounce portions. If some pieces are thicker than others, put thick pieces in ziplock bag and lightly pound to create thickness uniform with other pieces of chicken. Combine all ingredients but chicken in either a blender (recommended) or medium bowl. If using blender, pulse until marinade is blended and smooth (about 1 minute) If using bowl, whisk until all ingredients are incorporated. Pour marinade into large ziplock bag and add chicken pieces. Place pieces in marinade in gallon ziplock. Allow to marinate between 1-4 hours. There are two methods to cooking this chicken. I recommend indoor grilling because of the season. Grill Pan: Preheat grill pan to medium high and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Grill 4 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Oven: Preheat oven to 400. Spray 2 quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Lay in chicken pieces, allowing excess marinade to drip off before putting chicken in pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes. Cooking Tips: If you have a grill pan, I recommend grilling this chicken. Don't marinate for longer than 4 hours or the lemon juice will start to cook the chicken, making it mealy. Picky Eater/Non-Dieter Tips: The only issue picky eaters might have with this chicken is the "pieces" of garlic and parsley (from the marinade) that remain on the chicken once cooked. Blending marinade in the blender first eliminates this issue. Otherwise, this is just very moist chicken. *NOTE: Shrinking On A Budget is not affiliated with Weight Watchers International in any way, and Weight Watchers has not reviewed this recipe for accuracy or suitability for WW members.
