The Fantastic Four

Posted on May 8, 2010 Posted in 2010, Food, Recipes, Weight Watcher's .

For anyone who has been on Weight Watcher’s or another weight management program, no doubt you’ve often heard, “Oh it must be horrible that you can’t eat anything good!”

I joined Weight Watcher’s last year at the end of April because I was fed up with some weight I had that just wouldn’t go away. Hit the SpotI only wanted to lose around 20 lbs, and because I had semi-followed the program when I friend was doing it a few years back, it was already compatible with my lifestyle.

Since October 21, 2009 I have been a Life Time Member of Weight Watcher’s. Having successfully reached my goal and as I continue to maintained it, I’m really proud of the accomplishment. Granted, there are people who have lots MUCH more than myself and have overcome greater milestones and struggles, but it’s still a personal goal that I set and made happen.

Sometime last year I bought a couple of the Weight Watcher recipe books and one specifically was Hit the Spot.

You’ll see four different tasty treats in the photos and they include:

  • Coconut Green Beans,Fantastic 4
  • Garlicky Bean Dip and Sesame Wonton Crips,
  • Creamy Chocolately Walnut Fudge,
  • Honey and Cornmeal Butter Cookies.

ALL of these came from that book and all of them are very, very tasty!

In fact, they’re so good that I’m sharing them with family and friends. Well… not the green beans because I’ve already eaten most of them, but I did take some to work and a coworker was able to see how awesome they were! The bean dip and wontons are going to a friend’s Beans, Dip & Wontons, Oh My!birthday / house warming and the two sets of cookies are being shared amongst my in-laws, my grandparents who are visiting from Newfoundland & Labrador, my cousin and his wife (who my grandparents are staying with) and my great aunt who we’re visiting today in Newmarket. I’ll let you know what their reactions are.

So what about you? Have you ever made anything that was healthier than people expected? Or maybe you made something that was veggan friendly and fed it to the meat eaters in your life… did they enjoy the animal-less treats? I’m sure someone must have a fun story out there…????

I want to read about…

Been there, done that
