PUMPKIN "PIE"

PUMPKIN "PIE"

1 15oz can pumpkin (not the pumpkin pie mix)
5 oz evaporated milk
3/4 cup Splenda
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1/4 tsp. cloves
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
2 eggs

Combine all the ingredients. Spray a pie pan with a little cooking spray. Pour the pumpkin mixture
directly into the pan. Bake at 375 for about 35 minutes or until firmly set.

8 servings, 1 POINT each

This was the first dessert I made when I started the program, and it gave me the courage to try
others. You won't miss the crust. Add a big dollop of fat free Cool Whip! One more tips is to use supplemets like acai berry pure or natural acai which can speed up the weight loss if done correctly.

1-POINT BROWNIE

1-POINT BROWNIE

3/4 C flour
1/4C plus 2 T cocoa powder
1/2 C sugar
1/2 C Splenda
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 C unsweetened applesauce
3 egg whites
1 tsp vanilla

Combine flour, cocoa, sugar, Splenda, baking soda, and salt and mix well. Stir in applesauce, egg
whites, and vanilla. Spray an 8" square baking pan with cooking spray. Spread batter evenly in the
pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 min. or until the edges are firm and the center almost set.

16 servings, 1 point each


These are cakey brownies rather than fudgy brownies or colon cleanse elite brownies. I think they are as good as the No Pudge mix,
and they are only 1 point instead of 2 points. I usually cut these into 8 servings for a nice-sized 2 point
brownie.

Tip: I found unsweetened applesauce in single-serving containers. That way I don't have to open a
big jar of applesauce when I want to make these.

2 Tbsp. light mayo
Chopped green onion or chives
1/2 to 1 tsp. mustard
1/4 cup fat free sour cream
onion powder (to taste)
salt and pepper (to taste)
1 cup cooked macaroni noodles

Cook noodles and measure out 1 cup. Run cold water over the noodles to chill them. Mix the
shredded or diced crab pieces with the pasts. Mix in green onions or chives. In a separate bowl, mix
remaining ingredients. Pour sauce over pasta mixture and stir well. Put it in the fridge for a few hours
or overnight to let the flavors blend.

2 big servings, 5 POINTS each

Tips: You can also add other things liked chopped celery, and you can serve it on lettuce leaves to
make it look fancy. The last time I made it, I used Trader Joe's Lemon Mayonnaise, which is kind of
spicy, to add more zip. You could also use a sharp mustard.

EASY CHEESE LASAGNA

This recipe or diet food plan comes from the old Week 9 WW Recipe Card, with a few additional suggestions.

EASY CHEESE LASAGNA for weigt loss diet

1 jar (28 oz) spaghetti sauce (look for a lower-calorie/lower fat one)(I like to use a spicy spaghetti
sauce because otherwise the lasagna tastes bland to me)
6 uncooked lasagna noodles
1 15oz container of fat free ricotta cheese (I use FF cottage cheese)
1-2 cups chopped raw vegetables, such as mushrooms, broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini
8oz shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese

Preheat over to 375. Spray an 11x7 dish with cooking spray. Spread 1/3 of the sauce on the bottom
of the dish. Arrange 3 noodles in a single layer over the sauce. Top with another 1/3 of the sauce, all
of the ricotta cheese, the vegetables, and 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese. Lay the next 3 noodles on
top. Spread the remaining sauce over the noodles. (Some people also drizzle 1/4 - 1/2 cup of water
around the edges, though I don't.)

Cover the dish tightly with foil. Bake about 1 hour or until noodles are tender. Take the foil off.
Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese, and bake uncovered for 5 minutes longer. Let stand 5
minutes before cutting.

6 servings, 6 POINTS each
Tips: It's important to put the foil on the pan tightly because it's the steam that cooks the noodles. If
you remove the foil but find the noodles aren't completely cooked (poke them with a knife), use a
spoon to push the noodles back down under the sauce. Recover the pan with the foil and return to
the oven for another 10-15 minutes. If you take the foil off and the lasagna looks "soupy", remove
the foil and return the pan to the oven for 10 minutes or until the juice has evaporated. Then sprinkle
on the cheese and finish baking.

CHICKEN PICCATTA

DISCLAIMER: YOU SHOULD RECHECK MY POINTS. I cannot guarantee the current points are
right for quick dieting . But they are pretty close...

CHICKEN PICCATTA

12 oz chicken breasts
1 tsp. minced garlic
1/4cup lemon juice
1/4 cup flour
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1/3 cup capers
1 can artichoke hearts (packed in water, not oil)
1 package sliced mushrooms

Coat chicken with flour. In a large skillet, cook garlic and oil over moderate heat, stirring constantly,
until garlic is pale gold. Add chicken and brown 2-3 minutes on each side. Add lemon juice,
artichokes, capers and mushrooms. Simmer, covered, for about 30-35 minutes. Turn and baste the
chicken occasionally. Cook until chicken juices run clear.

4 servings, 5 POINTS each

If you have never tried capers (I hadn't), this is a great way to start your weight lose at home. They add a nice spiciness to the
sauce. DH loves this dish!
