Blueberry Chocolate Smoothie & A GIVEAWAY

January 26, 2017 by nettiemoore11 24 Comments

Rich and creamy, Blueberry Chocolate Smoothie. This smoothie only has a couple ingredients but is guaranteed to satisfy those chocolate cravings.

I have always had to watch my weight since I was a teenager. Especially when I was working as a model. Models were always so thin back in the 80’s. No plus size models were allowed then. I would always start my day with a fruit smoothie full of nutrients that would keep me full throughout the busy work day.

I have tried every combination of smoothies, but my favorite is a smoothie, full of rich and creamy yogurt, blueberries, almond milk and a protein powder. After a smoothie, I am ready to set off to the gym for a great workout. The base of my smoothie is Organic Valley, Grassmilk Vanilla yogurt. The great thing about smoothies is that you only need a couple of ingredients for it to be delicious and not costly.

Super Easy, Low Calorie Breakfast Quiche

Super Easy, Low Calorie Breakfast Casserole
Start the day off completely satisfied with this NEW, wonderful, low calorie breakfast casserole. It’s really simple to make and freezes great too.Each serving has just 147 calories, 4 grams of fat and 3 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. I think you’re going to LOVE it!
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Bake Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients for Quiche:
2 cups frozen hash brown potatoes (not thawed) diced not shredded
1 cup (4 ounces) lean ham, chopped
½ cup red sweet pepper, chopped
½ cup onion, chopped
2 eggs
4 egg whites
⅔ cup from a (10 ¾ oz) can Campbell’s Healthy Request cream of mushroom soup (condensed)
¼ cup fat-free milk
Black pepper, to taste

Ingredients for Topping:
½ cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9 x 9 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the frozen hash browns, ham, red bell peppers and onions. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites, condensed soup, milk and black pepper. Pour over potato mixture and toss to mix. Add mixture to baking pan. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle with cheese and bake an additional 20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is melted.
3. Cut into 6 slices. Using a spatula, carefully remove each slice.
4. This casserole freezes great once baked. I like to wrap into individual servings and store in the freezer. Great for a quick breakfast any day of the week!
Makes 6 servings (each serving, 1 slice)

Shopping Tips
Diced frozen hash brown potatoes can be found in the freezer section of most supermarkets. They come diced and contain no fat, just potatoes. Diced potatoes work much better for this recipe than shredded ones.
Trader Joe’s sells (8 oz) packages of Black Forest ham. It’s uncured and contains ‘no nitrates.’ In addition, most health food markets sell this type of ham. Or, use your favorite lean ham such as Oscar Meyer.
Whenever a recipe calls for using eggs, I love Eggland’s Best eggs! They have less saturated fat, less cholesterol, more Vitamin D, more Vitamin E and double the Omega 3 than regular eggs. Most supermarkets see them in the egg aisle.

Weight Watchers (old points) 3

Low Fat Zucchini Brownies

September 9, 2013 by nettiemoore11 20 Comments

I am constantly reading recipes from Food Blogs, Facebook, Pinterest, cookbooks, and magazines.

I am a very visual person, I like to see what the recipe looks like when it is done, I usually can remember what it looks like and the ingredients when I am at the market from just looking at it once.

This recipe caught my attention from Fitabulous on Facebook. The reviews were great and since I have loads of zucchini bursting from my garden, I thought I would give it a try. I have wanted to try a dessert recipe without oil and eggs.

When hubs was biting into a piece, I told him it was Low Fat.
He said, “No Kidding??” I don’t think hubs has ever eaten anything low fat on purpose in his life. He thought these were really great!

These brownies get moister and denser the day after, if they are even around that long, they seemed to have disappeared very quickly in my house! This is what Fitabulous has to say about the Brownies:

“Brownies made with zucchini, bananas, and applesauce, yielding a brownie with only 120 calories, 2 grams of fat, and a whole bunch of vitamins and minerals, and egg free. YESSSS!!!!

These are even a very moist low-fat chocolate brownie alternative, for weight watchers, only 2 ww points per serving ( 24 servings). It’s not going to be the same box brownie, but especially someone who only eats sweets occasionally like me, this healthier option is delish and guilt free!! ”
