From our leader many years ago

1 package of sugar free jelly (your choice of flavor)
1 cup boiling water
1 container fat free, sugar free yogurt (your choice of flavor)


Add 1 cup of boiling water to 1 package of sugar free jello. When dissolved add 1 container of fat free,sugar free yogurt (instead of 1 cup of cold water). Stir well. Refrigerate until set.

The entire recipe makes over two cups of the creamiest, yummiest dessert you have ever tried and totals 3 points (for the entire container)!!!!!

You can mix and match jellos and yogurts
strawberry jello and mixed berry yogurt
lemon jello and lemon chiffon yogurt
orange jello and tangerine yogurt

you are only limited by your own imagination.

It is truly wonderful and something that each of us usually has the ingredients for in the house.

Give it a try, you won't regret it!!!!!!!!1

Servings : 2
Points: 1.5

This was my 100th post!!!! Maybe the tag fairy will notice me soon!

Spoon 1 teaspoon of apple mixture onto each piece of dough and roll up making sure to seal edges around the apple so it doesn't leak out.

Key Lime Dessert Bars

 

[SlightlyGoofy]

I was told to post these recipes over here. I cannot believe that I have been on the boards for so long and did not know that this thread existed. I am plumb disappointed in myself and plan to peruse these pages tonight in search of good ideas to keep me OP. Thank you all and hope these have not been posted before and might be of use to someone else.


I have found many substitutes in my efforts to find foods that keep me full without adding pounds. My current favorites are

Strawberry pie

1 pkg. SF cook and serve vanilla pudding
1 pkg. SF strawberry Jell-O
2 cups water
16 oz pkg. strawberries

Mix vanilla pudding and water in small saucepan and bring to a boil over low
heat stirring frequently. When it starts to thicken remove from heat and mix
in Jell-O until dissolved. Set aside to cool. While this is cooling wash and
clean strawberries and slice into the bottom of a pie pan. Then pour pudding
mix over the berries and refrigerate until set.

Makes 6 servings at 1 point each.

Don't forget to add the points/calories for Cool Whip if you add it.

Dotti's Crustless Pumpkin Pie
Whole Pie = 4 pts!

15 oz can pumpkin
1/2 cup EggBeaters
1 1/2 cup skim milk
1/2 - 3/4 cup Splenda - depends on how sweet you want it
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Beat all ingredients together until smooth; put in pie pan sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake at 400ºF for 15 minutes, then at 375ºF for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. (I zap mine in the microwave for about 15 minutes)

I eat this almost everyday. It counts as 3-4 veggies, 1 protein and 1 milk. Even with Cool Whip it is not fattening and oh so filling. Don't forget to count the points/calories though.

I have about a dozen recipes that I make on a regular basis and they have kept me from many wild sprees. I try to keep plenty of healthy choices at hand and never cook while hungry. Sounds funny but it has worked for me.

Hope everyone had a healthy and happy day.

Oh my, my family and I tried the Philly Cheese Steak recipe tonight and it was SOOOO yummy!!!! Thanks for sharing all of these recipes, some of them really look wonderful and I can't wait to try them.

 

[ohMom]

Plan ahead.........start the night before
My family really liked this WW friendly brunch casserole

8 frozen hash brown potato patties (I used Ore Ida 70 cal/0 fat)
1 pkg (8 oz) thinly sliced cooked ham, chopped
1 1/4 c reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
2 c skim milk
1 can (10.75 oz) reduced fat cream of mushroom soup
Egg substitue equivalent to 4 eggs
1 tsp ground mustard
1/3 tsp pepper

Place potato patties in 9 x 13 dish coated with nonstick cooking spray. Top with ham and 1 cup cheese. Combine milk, soup, egg substitute, mustard and pepper; pour over cheese. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove from refrigerator 30 mins before baking. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining cheese, bake 20-25 mins longer or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let stand 10 mins. before serving.

Yield: 12 servings 122 calories/5 gm fat/trace fiber 3 pts
Exchanges: 1 meat, 1/2 starch

 

[ohMom]

1 c whole wheat flour
1 c white flour
3 TBSP sugar
1 TBSP baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 c. Egg beaters
1 c. skim milk
1/4 c. unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp vanilla
1 c. frozen blueberries

Topping: 1 TBSP sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375. Spray muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine flours, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon.

In small bowl combine egg beaters, milk, applesauce and vanilla. Whisk until smooth. Add to dry ingredients.

Stir with a fork just until batter is blended; do not overmix. Gently stir in blueberries. Spoon batter into muffin cups. Mix topping ingredients together and sprinkle over muffin batter.

Bake until muffins spring back when touched lightly and tops are golden, about 15 mins. Cool in pan 5 mins, remove and serve warm.

Although these aren't super sweet, I really like them, and they freeze well.

Mix any cake mix with one 12 oz can of diet pop and bake according to cake package directions.

Suggestions:

Any clear pop with white cake mix
Any cola with chocolate cake mix
Root beer with spice cake mix
Cherry 7-up with white cake mix
Cherry Coke with chocolate cake mix

Divide into 12 cupcakes for easy point figuring. Refer to your cake mix nutritional label for exact points.

Icing suggestions include Fat-free Cool whip or pudding. Though pudding would probably work better in 9 x 13 pan.

A regular white cake mix I have figured 4 pts per cupcake. Could use a reduced-fat cake mix or divide into more than 12 cupcakes to reduce the pts.
