Recipe Review

It's that time again!
Wondering what to make for dinner this week? Check out some of these easy and SUPER yummy recipes I've tried and loved. None of them are difficult (otherwise I would NOT have attempted them) so if I can make them you can too! 

All of these have the link that will take you to the original site.  I've also included the WW Points+ that I've come up with in the recipe builder. 
Remember that the points will vary depending on what brand/type of ingredients you use. My calculations can mainly be used a an estimate. 


 -------- Skinny White Chicken Chili -------

servings: 6  WWpts+: 7

This chili is good but it is SPICY! I think If I make it again I may leave out either the jalapenos or the diced green peppers. Otherwise it was a great recipe and it made quite a lot.

 -------- Salsa Chicken Casserole -------

servings: 6  WWpts+: 11

I made this yesterday for lunch while we had a friend over. After he had left, he texted me wanting the recipe! This is SO easy, and although it takes an hour to cook, it was excellent. You pretty much open a handful of cans, pour them into the dish, add the chicken, and bake! 

To make this a little healthier I used brown rice, and skimped a bit on the cheese.

 -------- Apple Pie Egg Rolls -------

servings: 10  WWpts+: 2

These little guys are so cute! Think Asian apple pie. I had never used egg roll wrappers before, and had a little trouble finding them. Ours were located in the refrigerated "healthy/organic" section.

 -------- Southwestern Black Bean Salad -------

servings: 13  WWpts+: 2

This Salad is perfect in the Summertime (which is just why I'm sharing it now...in the Fall. Woops!) Anyhow, its easy, it's refreshing, and also really good on top of chicken or fish!

 -------- Blackened Tilapia Tacos -------

servings: 4  WWpts+: 10

I am obsessed with fish tacos. I use all sorts of fish, not just tilapia and they're always good. Spread some avocado on the tortilla, and I usually add lettuce and maybe some onions or peppers too.

-------- Ramen Stir-Fry -------

servings: 4  WWpts+: 7

Easy peasy lemon squeezy! That is what this recipe is. Cook your meat, make the ramen, add the veggies, and BOOM done!
 We used chicken instead of the beef and, 2 packages of frozen stir-fry veggies. The recipe also says it makes 4 servings, but Eric and I easily eat almost all of it.

-------- Amazing Tomato Basil Pasta  -------

servings: 4  WWpts+: 10

This dish is basically like magic. You just throw everything into the pot, let it simmer and cook, and that's it! You then have this amazing pasta dish! 
(Do check on it and give it a stir every once in a while, to make sure the pasta doesn't stick to the pot or burn on the bottom).
