Need WW-friendly dinner suggestion

We're going to the Yankee game tonight and I need something that is WW-friendly to eat for dinner (we'll be eating in the stadium, so we can make it on time). I would like to try and not use any of my weekly points as we're going out to dinner tomorrow night as well.
I have 15 points left for the rest of the day and will probably only use 1 more between now and then.
I am thinking my best bet is to get a grilled chicken sandwich or something. Is that a safe bet?

Re: Need WW-friendly dinner suggestion

I'd wait until you get there to decide since all the calorie content is posted for everything. I was shocked at the calories in some things. Even that things that seemed to be the "healthier" options had higher calorie contents than the things that I thought were unhealthy.

I'm sure you can find something to eat like a slice of pizza or something for under 15 pts.

ETA: I know they have a boars head deli stand, so you could always get a sandwich!

I agree with the PP. Wait until you get there. When I went to Citi Field last week, the item with the least amount of calories was a hot dog so that's what I had. It's pretty astounding when you see how many calories are in each item. Like a pretzel had 525 calories in it!Chat Icon

I actually just saw in the Eat This Not That book that at a ballpark one of your healthiest options is a hot dog. Which is kind of scary!

I know this was last night, but for future info--Yankee stadium has a Deli. Go with a turkey, ham or roast beef sandwich on whole wheat bread, no cheese and lots of veggies.

2 points for the bread and the meat is approx 1 point per 3 slices.
