Individual frittata Simply Filling

I made this today and it was so good that I decided I needed to share :)

It's simply filling if you use ff cheese but we don't get that here and it was well worth 2pp for it. It's also great because you can use up whatever veggies and protein you happen to have in the fridge.

Really simple just put it in the toaster oven while you get ready in the morning and voila breakfast!

Individual frittata Simply Filling

• 1 egg
• 2 egg whites
• baby spinach chopped
• 3 cherry tomatoes sliced lengthwise
• 2 slices extra lean ham chopped
• green onion sliced
• I put in 1 oz light cheese cubed for an extra 2pp if you use ff it would be sf
• I know some people put ff cream in it but I didn't think it needed it.

Spray a small individual mini pie baking dish or any other small dish with non stick spray.

Beat the egg and egg whites together for a couple of minutes.

Put 2/3 of the egg mixture in the bottom of the dish.

Add the veggies then the ham, the green onion, the tomatoes and finally the cheese.

Pour the rest of the egg mixture on top.

I baked mine in my toaster oven at 375 for 20 minutes or until puffed up and set.

Enjoy!!

Fudgesicles

I love these in the summer! After putting them in the recipe builder they were 2pp each or 2 for 3pp

Fudgesicles 2pp or 2 for 3pp

1 box of sugar free fat free jello instant chocolate pudding mix
2 cups of skim milk
1 cup of 95% fat free cool whip thawed I use this because in Canada this is the lowest fat

Mix the pudding mix and the milk with a whisk until starting to thicken and no lumps then whisk in the cool whip.

Put into popsicle molds. The size of my popsicle mold made 7.

Put into the fridge until frozen.

Run warm water over the bottom of the mold when you want one to loosen the popsicle to make it easier to get out.

Enjoy!

Berry cobbler

Berry cobbler 2pp or simply filling

You could use any fruit for this but today I used frozen blueberries and frozen cherries.

Frozen fruit approximately 1/2 cup you could also use fresh fruit
1/4 cup of quick oats ground into flour
sweetener
1/2c approximately of diet clear soda I used diet 7up

Spray a 1 cup ramekin or baking dish with non stick spray
put the fruit in
mix the oatmeal and sweetener I used 1 packet
put the oatmeal on top of the fruit evenly
pour the pop slowly over the oatmeal if it fizzes let it settle before pour more on
I gave a quick spray of butter flavoured pam on top

I didn't do it this time but next time I'll sprinkle a little course sugar on top :) 0pp

I baked this in a 350 toaster oven for 30 minutes

This isn't overly sweet which is why I like it.

Enjoy!

Sausage oatmeal pancakes Simply Filling +2pp

For some reason I just think sausage and pancakes go together :)

So I came up with this recipe.

Sausage pancakes with sugar free syrup Simply Filling +2pp

2 lilydale turkey breakfast sausages cut into half length wise
1/2c quick oats uncooked
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4c 0% plain Greek yogurt
1 large egg or 2 egg whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp splenda baking granular or whatever sweetener you use
sugar free pancake syrup

I had previously cooked the sausage so I just cut them length wise in half.

I put all ingredients except the sausage and the syrup in my bullet.

Made 4 long shaped pancakes in pan then put a sausage on top of each one.
Cook until bottom is browned then flip over.
Top with sugar free syrup

Pizzelle ice cream sandwich 2pp

These are pizzelles. They come in original, caramel, chocolate, lemon and

anise flavors. 2 of them are 1pp!

I took 2 of the pizzelles 1pp. In a small bowl I mixed 3 Tbsp ultra light Cool Whip 1pp and 1 tsp sf banana pudding mix 0pp together. Then I spread it on one of the pizzelles and put the other pizzelle on top. Pop it into the freezer and voila an ice cream sandwich :) For 2pp

I will be coming up with some new ideas for these soon!

Pink smoothie

I love how healthy this smoothie is! This is not an overly sweet smoothie and it would probably be a good idea if you like beets :) I love them and really enjoy it.

Pink smoothie 2pp

1 banana
1 pear chopped
1/4 small raw beet I washed it and left the skin on
55g avocado (I weigh so I know exactly how many points it is)
1c water
ice
I added a couple of drops of sweet leaf stevia

Blend all in a nutribullet or blender

Next time I might add a bit of ginger :)

Portobello bacon cheese mushroom

I made this for breakfast today :) Points depend upon whether you use bacon and how much cheese cheese. Mine came to 2pp

Portaobello mushroom
Thick slice of tomato
1 crispy slice of bacon (made an extra one yesterday)
Light cheese

Take out the stem of he mushroom, some people scrape out the black scales I didn't, and either pan fry or bake. I popped mine in my toaster oven on 350 until cooked. Turn it over to get the juices out.

When cooked put it bottom side up, add tomato slice, crumbled bacon and cheese and put under broiler for a minute or leave in frying pan until cheese is melted.

Creamy pumpkin mousse

Came up with this today to eat after lunch! So good

Creamy pumpkin mousse makes 2 servings 100% Simply Filling or 2pp per serving

1c fat free Greek yogurt
1/2c pumpkin
1/2 packet of Weight Watchers French Vanilla smoothie
1/4c skim milk
pumpkin pie spice and sweetener to taste

I put all ingredients into my nutribullet.

Mini breakfast quiches

Mini breakfast quiches simply filling + 2pp for 30g light cheese

1/2c  egg substitute or 2 eggs for 4 egg whites :) whisked
veggies of your choice (I like to use broccoli, green onion, peppers)
you can also add protein of your choice (lean ham, turkey bacon 1pp, homemade sausage SF or 2pp)
30g/1oz cheese I use light cheese grated or cubed

Spray 3 or 4 muffin cups with non stick.
Divide veggies into the cups.
Crumble the meat on top.
Divide the cheese between the cups.
Pour the egg mixture on top until nearly full.
Pop into a 350 oven (I used my toaster oven) for 20 minutes or until puffed up and starting to brown.
ENJOY!

Depending on how many veggies you add this makes 3 or 4 muffin cups and yes I count that as 1 serving :)

Sausage simply filling

Breakfast sausage 100% simply filling or 2 pp original recipe found here

• 1 pound lean ground turkey I've also used chicken which was just as good
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried sage
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Kosher or sea salt to taste

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Make sausage patties to desired size and thickness. I usually get about 8 patties. Uncooked patties can be frozen up to one month.

Add patties to a large skillet and cook on medium-high heat until brown on both sides and cooked through.

Individual apple pies

A fellow Weight Watcher friend passed along this recipe :)

Individual apple pies (I made 1/2 the recipe) points are determined by the points of your egg roll wrappers. Mine are 2pp but some people have found 1pp ones.
6 apples cored and chopped small
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/3c water
1 tbsp cinnamon
10 egg roll wrappers

Cook the first 4 ingredients until thr apples are soft not mushy.

Wet the edges of the egg roll wrappers with a little water to help them seal.

Put approximately 2 Tbsp of the mix in the middles of the wrappers and roll up like an egg roll folding the sides in.

Place on a baking sheet or parchment paper that has been sprayed with non stick or misted with oil.

Bake at 350

Now the original recipe says 8 mins then turn for 8 more mins but with my wrappers it took a total of about 25 mins. Cook until browned.

The hubs and I loved them :)

Thanks Lori!!

Banana stuffed French toast

Banana stuffed French toast Simply filling plus 2pp for the cream cheese or if you're doing regular points plus it would be 5pp

2 slices light bread
2 tbsp of light cream cheese 2pp
1 packet of stevia/sweetener
banana sliced
2 egg whites
splash of skim milk
cinnamon

Mix the light cream cheese, a pinch of stevia/sweetener and some cinnamon
Spread mixture on 2 slices light bread
Place some banana slices on one of the slices on top of the cream cheese the rest of the banana can be put on the side
Put the 2 slices of bread together with the cream cheese on the inside

In a square container mix the egg whites, splash of milk, little stevia/sweetener and a 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Whisk together.

Dip the sandwich first one side then carefully turn over and the other side.

Cook in non stick sprayed pan. If doing Simply Filling you could use one of the oils. Today I've planned for my oils later.

Cook one side till brown then carefully flip and brown the other side.

I served this with 1 tsp maple syrup (0pp)

If you want to step this up a notch you could put a few chocolate chips on the inside which would be amazing. I don't trust myself around chocolate chips though and this is awesome even without them :)

Update: made this today with Ezekiel bread which I count as Simply Filling, 2 tbsp organic light cream cheese which was 1pp, sprinkled 1 tsp pure maple flakes (0pp) on the cream cheese and topped with 1 tsp pure maple syrup (0pp)

Slow cooker/pressure cooker pumpkin steel cut oats simply filling or 5pp

Some days are just busy enough that I need something quick for breakfast. I tweaked the original recipe from here.

I have to tell you that all slow cookers are different and when I read this recipe I knew that I couldn't leave mine on low for 8 hours with steel cut oats in it. It would be over cooked. So I put mine in the slow cooker after dinner and they took barely 5 hours and came out amazing. I also had a hard time finding a bowl that would hold this much and fit in my slow cooker so I improvised. I took a bowl that would fit in but not all the way in so I filled my crockpot with water to the bottom of the filled bowl. Worked great, didn't stick and came out perfect.Make sure it's a heat proof bowl!!

The smaller bowl is just what I put some in to warm up for breakfast tomorrow :) I did put 1 tsp of real maple syrup which is 0pp.

Slow cooker pumpkin steel cut oats

1 cup steel cut oats

2 cups of water
1 cup of skim milk (you could use all water but I like it a bit creamy)
1 cup of canned pumpkin
1 tsp of vanilla
2 Tbsp splenda brown sugar blend I didn't find it sweet enough and added 2 Tbsp of sf pancake syrup
2 tsp pumpkin pie mix

In a heat proof bowl that will fit in your slow cooker put all the ingredients in. I  sprayed with non stick first.
Put into the slow cooker and carefully fill slow cooker with water to 1/2 way up the side of the bowl.
Cook on low for 5 hours. Or until cooked.

Makes 4 servings of 1 heaping cup

This is simply filling since the brown sugar blend dived by 4 would be 0.
The original recipe using all water and regular brown sugar is 2pp. Which if you use the splenda brown sugar blend and skim milk should still be 0pp. Or for points plus 5pp per 1 cup cooked.

Update: I made 1/2 this recipe and put it in my electric pressure cooker for 8 minutes then natural release.

Baked custard

I've tried a couple of recipes for baked custard and this is the one I'm using right now.

Baked custard 100% simply filling or 2 pts if I make 4
I haven't tried using egg substitute which would make them even less points

2eggs
1/4c splenda
pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla
1/4c instant skim milk powder
1 1/2c skim milk scalded (hot but not boiling)
nutmeg to sprinkle on top

I mixed the eggs, splenda, salt, vanilla in a small bowl. Then I put the skim milk in a saucepan and put it on medium heat until between warm and hot, but not boiling. When warm enough I added the instant milk powder. Take off of the heat. Whisk while very slowly adding the egg mixture. Pour into 4 medium sized oven proof bowls. Put bowls in a pan that has high sides. Pour very hot water into the pan until it's 2/3 of the way up the side of the bowls. Carefully put into a 350 preheated oven. I used my toaster oven. 20 minutes or until set and if you put a sharp knife in the middle it will come out clean.
Before I put them in the oven.

Cooked.

Lemon meringue cups

This is a nice light dessert/snack that also a nice way to get some dairy in!  In this picture I made lime meringue :)

I found the original recipe here.

Lemon Meringue Cups 100% simply filling
1 package of sugar free lemon jello
1 cup of boiling water
1-2 cups of light vanilla yogurt (If you want it firmer use less yogurt. I usually use 1 1/2c of yogurt)

Add jello packet to the boiling water and stir for a while, then add the yogurt and stir for another couple of minutes. Put into small cups and place into the refrigerator until set.

Points will depend on a lot of things. How much yogurt you use and how many cups you make. I usually make 4 good size cups and since I'm doing Simply Filling they are 100% simply filling.
If you're not doing simply filling then figure our many points the amount of yogurt you are using is then divided them by the number of cups you use. If you use a light yogurt it should come out to 1-2 pts per serving depending on what yogurt you use and how much you use.
