When I eat dip, I use a LOT of it. Seriously – my veggies, chips, or whatever I’m dipping with have to come out with massive globs of the dip on them.

That’s just how I roll.

But most dips out there, even the low-calorie ones, still end up really racking in the Weight Watchers Points with the way I eat them. So, after a bit of experimentation in the kitchen I came out with a delicious and easy Caramelized Onion Dip Recipe that is not only rich and flavorful – it’s just 2 Points for a half cup! I was in heaven.

Caramelizing the onions adds a nice flavor and texture to the dip. And using Greek yogurt instead of sour cream really helps keep the fat/calorie count low and gives some extra protein and probiotics. This onion dip recipe will be appearing on my Weight Watchers Super Bowl Recipes list for sure!

And I’ll be making it regularly for some guilt-free late-night munching.

This incredibly easy Tuna Pasta Salad Recipe was a hit at my house. So creamy and flavorful, so healthy, and just 5 Points per serving. By using less mayo and some nonfat Greek yogurt instead, the nutritional statistics changed dramatically. I’ve made this dish a few times as the main course and also as a side dish, and it works really well both ways.

I also love the fresh taste that the dill brings, and the red onions help to add some extra flavor and a nice crunch. And I think it’s great that this tuna pasta salad is such a versatile dish…you can really experiment and try it with different vegetables and herbs. I made it once with the addition of corn and it was fantastic!

Though, I’d highly recommend serving this dish chilled or at room temp. It’s not quite as good when it’s warm. But this healthy tuna pasta salad recipe will make a great low-calorie lunch idea or a super easy weeknight dinner. Definitely add this Weight Watchers pasta salad recipe to your repertoire!

Well, here we are in September after Labor Day, and that means Fall is just around the corner.

And so will begin the season of endless fantastical Fall recipes that will have you packing on some serious pounds if you aren’t careful.

But I’ve got some amazing Fall Weight Watchers Recipes that are SO good and yet still low in Points. I was in the kitchen this past weekend, getting my pumpkin on with a few new low calorie pumpkin recipes that I’ll be featuring this fall.

Even though it’s still summer, and still pretty hot, I thought I’d share a fall recipe — this amazing healthy, low Points Pumpkin Pie Smoothie Recipe. It’s made with ice, so it’s still a great way to beat the heat these last few weeks of summer while still enjoying some traditional fall flavors.

This Pumpkin Smoothie is loaded with good for you ingredients, it’s rich, creamy, and filling, and has just 3 Points per serving. I really wish I had some fat free whipped cream on hand when I made this because that definitely would’ve made it even more spectacular (and pretty!), but I didn’t, so you won’t see it pictured up above, though I highly recommend adding it on.

The whole smoothie recipe makes 2 servings, so it’s a very nicely sized smoothie. If you love pumpkin recipes, then this low calorie Pumpkin Pie Smoothie is a must try.

I got the idea for this Poached Eggs over Polenta with Olive Tapenade Recipe while eating an olive tapenade bruschetta one day.

While enjoying the olive tapenade on the delicious bread of the bruschetta, I thought about trying it over a lower calorie option instead – polenta. I also wanted to add a delicate flavor that would balance out the dish and add a touch of creaminess, and since I’ve been having lots of fun experimenting with poached eggs lately, I decided that this may be the ticket.

I was astounded at how fantastic this dish turned out!

The flavors are absolutely amazing, and the poached eggs over the polenta and olive tapenade is perfect. Though this is not a low fat or low cholesterol recipe, the balance of protein and fiber and the minimized carbohydrates make this Weight Watchers recipe a mere 8 Points. NOT bad considering that you are eating two whole eggs over 4 slices of polenta with a decadent olive tapenade.

Pair this dish with a light salad, and you’ve got a great Weight Watchers meal. There are a million different variations of this recipe bouncing around in my head that I’m dying to try, and I’m thrilled at how well this Poached Eggs over Polenta with Olive Tapenade turned out. I also think this would work really well with a creamier, homemade polenta, but I chose to keep it simple and use the prepared “log” I found at Trader Joe’s.

Regardless, this dish is excellent and an absolute MUST try.
