Winter – Berry Muffins
Those are to die for. And they aren’t even that unhealthy, with close to no fat and fairly little added sugar. And they take less than 10 min to prepare. Now that they are selling all those huge christmas chocolate boxes I find this to be a better alternative if you’re craving something sweet. If you want to make it a bit sweeter you can add some chocolate drops and make sugary icing.
Zucchini fritters with 2 min Tzadziki
You can do the whole meal in roughly 6 min and serve as main dish or side dish, whatever you prefer.
There are very sophisticated versions of tzadziki out there, this one is not. It’s a very simple version of it but still tastes better and is healthier than the bought ones.
Healthy Dessert Wraps
Lovely dessert, but works well as lunch or snack too. If you feel like eating chocolate, eat this instead it’s really sweet but doesn’t contain as much fat or added sugar as chocolate
Celery Schnitzel
I put this into the German, Austrain&Swiss category, because Schnitzel is a pretty austrian dish, even though this has little to do with the original. The idea is simple. Instead using meat you just take slices of celery
5 min Raspberry Chocolate dessert
Doesn’t even take the full 5 min, unless you sit there and stare at the microwave
No Sugar, No Butter, No Flour Banana Breakfast Muffins
They are a bit more chewy than normal muffins, so you have to eat them slower and get full sooner
Irish Cream Pudding with Butterscotch
If you don’t have a lot of time and still want to make a nice dessert, this is it. If you have some more time you can get fancier with this recipe also
Mac ‘n’ Feta
I tried a different version of the traditional Mac and cheese here. I used cream cheese instead of butter and low-fat feta instead of cheddar to save some calories. It’s super simple and quick
Banana – Cherry Breakfast Milkshake
I literally lived off those the whole day today, but that’s alright because they contain almost everything you need during the course of a day.
Bean Pancakes
If you’re the kind of person that doesn’t really like to eat a lot of meat, like me,beans and lentils are great because they contain a lot of iron, potassium, zinc and protein. They are also a lot cheaper than meat, so I try to include them in my diet as often as I can and prepare them in various ways.
This kinda is an african dish. Obviously they have herbs and spices over there that are rather hard to get here, so I substituted most of them. You can really flavour them according to your own preferences.
Bean Taco Filling
I tried something different here and it worked out quite well. The filling itself also doesn’t have any weight watchers points, which makes it a great low-fat alternative to meat
Scrambled Tofu – Cheddar & Red Pepper
I usually make scrambled tofu spontaneously with whatever I have around but I liked this so much, that I want to do it again
Aubergine – Tomato Pasta
I had this for diner last night and I thought it was great. If you want to safe weight watchers points leave out cheese and substitute dried tomatoes with more cherry tomatoes.
Strawberry – Chilli Spring Rolls with Lemon Mascarpone dip
I had this for dinner but as I made very small spring rolls, they would have been great as snack or for some kind of Buffet too. I’m not quite sure how many WW points the dough has, but the filling doesn’t have any at all. For a more WW friendly dip simply replace mascarpone with yoghurt or quark.
Gorgonzola Dressing
Dressing are often full of fat and so is this one. I didn’t use any oil but the gorgonzola itself is quite fattening.It’s still a lot healthier than the ones you can buy though and doesn’t take too much time to prepare.
Summer Pudding
This was the first time I ever made any kind of pudding. I think it turned out quite well, but was a bit below average when it comes the appearance. It tastes amazing though, so give it a try.
Cantuccini
I love this one. It’s delicious and you can store it for 2 – 3 days. Great for lazy afternoons and evenings, with some wine. It’s not really a cake, I guess, but I categorized it as one for a lack of a better term.
Onion baguettes with tomato – rosemary butter
The baguettes are great, but I particularly love the tomato butter, because it’s so simple to make and taste delicious. Works great as side dish or as lunch just by itself
Melon scoops in frozen yoghurt
It’s a great, healthy, substitute for ice cream, just be sure to use a very ripe melon. Low fat, low-calorie and easy to make.
Austrian Topfcreme
One of my favourites. Tastes delicious and takes less than 5 min to prepare. With the right ingredients it can also be a great Weight Watchers dessert. My dish had a total of 5 ww points, I made 2 servings of it, so that’s 2,5 points for each.
Avocado – Arugula Pesto
Very simple and low-calorie recipe. If you leave out the feta cheese the pesto itself does not have any weight watchers points and if you combine it with whole grain pasta you’ll have a great 3 points meal that takes less than 10 min
Rhubarb Crumble
A bit different from the classic apple crumble but tastes just as good.
Asparagus – Gorgonzola Quiche
Ok, I have to admit,by definition, this is not actually a Quiche. But I don’t know what other name to use for this, so I just used Quiche, hoping no one would mind. I’ve been told it sounds very fancy, is very easy to make though.
Once you have dough settled you just mash the other ingredients together and but it in the oven.
Zucchini – Lemon Spaghetti
This is one of my favourites. It tastes kinda refreshing, like summer, is easy to make, very healthy and low on Weight Watchers points. Assuming you eat all of it alone, do not add parmesan and use whole grain spaghetti you will end up with only 7 points. But you can easily share it with 3 or 4 others and/or add less oil so you will have end up with fewer points.
Sugar Snaps Salad with Soy Bean Sprouts and Apples
This is great dish for taking to work or school. You can prepare it the night before and store in the fridge over night. It will actually even taste better then. Tastes Great with bread and cream cheese
