Weight Watchers Recipes

Here’s a lower fat version of the family favorite baked macaroni and cheese recipe. I think it’s actually better than many of the full-fat versions, because the lower fat content of the cheese keeps it from separating and getting greasy. You can experiment with different types of cheese if you want, just be patient while making the roux, as it’s a little hard to make a good cream sauce when you have so little fat.

Here’s a pasta casserole recipe that’s not as cheesy as the usual ones, thus making it lighter and more diet-friendly. You can re-interpret this recipe based on the seasons: try replacing the butternut squash with roasted tomatoes and zucchini in the summer, or some asparagus and dill in the spring. Don’t forget to add the toasted almonds (or some other nuts) for some crunch!
