Weight Watchers Friendly Dinner Menu #92 with Points

Weight Watchers Friendly Dinner Planning Ideas

Every Friday I send out an email with what I’m planning to eat for dinner in the coming week which I also archive here on the blog. It helps keep me accountable and I hope you find it helpful as well.

 

The Benefits of Weekly Meal Planning

Getting dinner on the table is so much easier when you’ve planned what you’re cooking and eating ahead of time and done the grocery shopping. It’s the only thing that prevents me from resorting to fast food or takeout more often than I should.

Every time I get out of the meal planning habit and resort to take-out, restaurants, and snacking on junk, it’s amazing how crappy I feel and how quickly the pounds pack on.

The Key to Eating Well is Cooking

When you’re trying to eat well, not cooking isn’t an option. There are just too many unknowns (hidden sugar, flour, fats, chemicals, points), too many temptations, and portions are way too large for you to routinely eat well on take-out or pre-made food.

The Key to Consistent Cooking is Planning

In the beginning meal planning can be a huge chore. The key is finding an approach that works for you over the long haul. If you are struggling with meal planning here are 3 great meal planning resources to help:

This Week’s WW Meal Plan Suggestions with WW Points:

What Do I Eat For Breakfast on WW?

Most days my breakfast is something quick like an english muffin with almond butter, avocado toast, cottage cheese with fruit,  eggs, yogurt with fruit, oatmeal or a smoothie, depending on my mood and the season.

What do I Eat for Lunch on WW?

Lunch is usually leftovers or some combination of soup / sandwich / salad.

This week for Dinner I am planning to make…

Skinny Impossibly Easy Chicken Broccoli Pie – This chicken and cheddar broccoli pie really is impossibly easy to make. I even made my own healthy baking mix to use as a Bisquick replacement.

With minimal chopping required, you can have this ready to pop in the oven in about 15 minutes. After baking for about 35 minutes, you can have dinner on the table in under an hour. It can also be assembled ahead and refrigerated until you’re ready to bake it. 

Paula Deen’s Meatloaf Made Lighter – This Paula Deen Meatloaf Recipe is one of my family’s favorites. If you are looking for a great old-fashioned, homemade meatloaf, that’s easy to make with great flavor, this is it. I usually serve it with baked potatoes or mashed potatoes and a green vegetable or simple tossed salad. 

Easy 4-Ingredient CrockPot Broccoli Cheese Soup – I love broccoli cheese soup and have posted several versions through the years. This easy crock pot soup is the easiest tastiest one yet with just 4 ingredients. We usually enjoy soup for supper with crusty bread, toast or muffins. 

Easy Egg Salad on Light English Muffin and  Chunky Tomato Soup

Customer Testimonials

I have been using Slender Kitchen Meal Plans since last year and we love it! Even more excited now that it has the new points. The recipes are easy, family friendly, and taste good. I love that I can customize for our family and the shopping list saves me so much time and money. One of my best purchases last year. ~ Camille

I bought the Table for Two eCookbook and I love it! It saved me from giving up on my weight loss journey. The meals are delicious and so easy to cook. Having a weekly grocery list, recipes and instructions with pictures readily accessible has taken so much stress off of me in meal planning. I was tired of cooking recipes that had multiple servings and eating the left overs several times during the week. My husband loves the Table for Two recipes and he doesn’t even need to lose weight! I have recommended your site to several friends on the same journey and they love your recipes too. Thank you for all your hard work in making meal planning so easy!
~ Barbara

Hi Martha – I cannot begin to thank you enough for my month of meals. We (my husband and I) have only had the first week, but WOW, what great meals! I can’t wait for the second week. You have a customer for life!
~ Sharon S.

I bought the 12 Week eCookbook and Meal Planner by Alisha Hughes from Meal Planning Mommies. It is great 12 weeks with a shopping list which is wonderful.  I just make a copy of the list and go shopping for the week.
