Weight Watchers Recipes

Here’s a delicious fish cake recipe – each small cake is only 1 point, because no oil is involved. (If you want, you can try frying them in oil, but the point value will increase.)

You can also make these cakes bigger, and eat them as burgers.

I personally don’t like to eat spicy, but if you want to add some heat to these cakes, chop up some hot red chili peppers and add them to the salmon mixture.

Weight Watchers Lobster Rangoon recipe
Makes 30 servings

Ingredients
8 ounces lobsters, finely chopped
30 wonton wrappers
2 (8ounce) packages cream cheese
1 bunch green onions, finely chopped (use all but the white part)
1 egg, mixed with 2 tablespoons water
canola oil (to deep fry wontons)
2 tablespoons garlic juice (you can use the juice from a jar of chopped garlic in juice)
2 tablespoons lemon juice

2. Finely chop the green onions finely, and add to cream cheese.

5. Put 30 wonton wrappers onto a large flat baking pan.
6. Place a teaspoonful of the mixture into the center of each wonton wrapper.
7. Mix together the egg and 2 tablespoons of water. With 2 fingers, dip into the egg wash, then rub around the edge of each wonton.
8. Taking the bottom right tip of the wonton, bring it up to meet the top left tip, and press around the edges to make a seal (so the cream cheese mixture doesn’t come out when deep frying).
9. When all the 30 wontons are done, put them in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
10. When ready to deep fry, heat the canola oil to 350 degrees F.
11. Turn on the oven to 200 degrees F.
12. Drop 6 wontons in at a time, and fry on one side, then flip and fry on the other. Place on a layer of 4 paper towels to absorb the grease, then place in an oven proof dish, and put in the oven to keep warm while the next batch is cooking.

This is an interesting way to prepare shrimp. Wontons are a type of dumplings commonly found in Chinese cuisine.

Weight Watchers Shrimp Wontons with Green Onion Dipping Sauce recipe
Makes 24 wontons

Ingredients
24 large shell-on shrimp (20 to 24 per lb.)
24 square wonton wrappers
3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
24 sprigs fresh cilantro, leaves and tender stems
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
vegetable oil (for frying)
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
4 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 cup low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 cup orange juice

Preparation
1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup soy sauce, the chopped cilantro, 2 teaspoons ginger, 1 tablespoon sesame oil and the lemon zest.
2. Peel the shrimp (leaving tails on) and devein. Add to the soy mixture and marinate, covered, for about 15 to 20 minutes at room temperature.
3. Drain the shrimp in a colander, spread out on paper towels, and pat dry.
4. Pour oil into a deep, heavy pot to a depth of 3 inches and heat to 375° F. Meanwhile, spread out wonton wrappers. Working with one wrapper at a time, put several cilantro leaves and stems along wrapper edge nearest you. Top them with a shrimp, arranging the shrimp lengthwise so that the tails extend beyond the wrapper. Fold the wrapper edge opposite the tail over the shrimp.
5. Brush the far edge of the wrapper with water and, starting with the near edge, roll the wrapper loosely around the shrimp, forming a package. Press seam firmly to seal.
6. Preheat the oven to 200° F and put a shallow rack in a baking pan. When the oil reaches 375° F, fry the wontons in several batches (so as not to crowd them), flipping midway through cooking, until they turn medium golden brown (about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes). If the shrimp begins to brown too quickly, reduce the temperature.
7. Lift the shrimp out with tongs, draining excess oil, and transfer to baking pan; keep warm in oven.
8. In a small bowl, whisk together the orange and lemon juices, 2 teaspoons ginger, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, marmalade and green onions.
9. Serve the wontons hot, with the dipping sauce on the side.
