Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

All my old one point choices seem to be three now. Has anyone found something yummy for less than three points besides the fruit and veggies?

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

i just printed a recipe for lemon bars at 3 pts each, I plan on modifying it a bit to get it to two points. I think mostly fruits/veggies will be the sources of low point items.

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

Turkey burgers are only 4 pts (The Jennie-O ones)

La Torilla Factory low carb/high fiber whole wheat wraps are 1 pt. I put grilled chicken on it (2oz/ 1/2 cup is 2 pts).
Campbells soup as hands- veggie noodle is 3 pts..chicken and stars is 2 pts
light and fit yougurt (the small one) is only 1 pt

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

I went to panera for dinner tonight

Pick 2
Classic Salad and Chicken Noddle Soup is 5 points

Whole Grain Bread 5 pts
White Bread 4 pts
Baked Lays 3 pts
Panera Chips 4 pts

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

I swear by the WW "Mexican Inspired Vegetable Soup". It is 1 pt (used to be zero -- not sure what has changed in this new plan to make it 1 pt, since it's ALL veggies with fat-free broth). It is AWESOME. I made a big pot every Sunday and bring some to work each day. I substituted green beans for the zuccini, but that's it. DELISH.....

The WW Giant Latte bars are 2 pts.

Morningstar Farms Grilled "chicken" patties are 2 pts (and they are very good!)

Fiber One Strawberry Yogurt is 1 pt

Tribe Sweet Red Roasted Pepper Hummus (2 TBSP) with carrots - 1 pt

Laughing Cow Queso Fresco Cheese Wedge - 1 pt

Triscut Fire-Roasted Tomato w/Olive Oil Crackers - 3 pts

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

Wasa Light & Crisp crackers are only 2 points for 3. They taste a bit like Rice Krispies to me. They are really good with a little laughing cow cheese wedge...but that's another 1 point.

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

I made the Italian soup0 last night and ate 2 bowls of it. I guess that's how I ate 5 cookies and came in under points

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

Also a Ballpark turkey dog is still 1point. The Whole wheat hot dog buns from Stop and Shop are 2. So thats only 3 points

Re: Weight Watchers New Plan - What are the new low point foods?

1 Tablespoon of sugar free jelly - 1 pt
2 slices light whole wheat bread - 2 pts
