Did you make it through your Monday? I think many of us are just getting back on track after the holidays and so many weather-related days. It’s really hard to eat healthy when I am on vacation mode! Are you like that, too? Also, when I have a snow day, I feel like baking! Anyway, I started eating healthier again on January 8th and I have definitely had some treats, too. 

Before I tell you about my favorite website and its new feature, I have a recipe to share with you that knocked my socks off!

Breakfast Pizza! 

First of all, I must tell you that I am not willing to eat something I hate or that tastes gross or artificial because there are so many foods that I love out there. 

I have a favorite brand of low carb flour tortilla and I would not eat it if I hated it. Period.

La Banderita is the brand. Call me, La Banderita! I even speak Spanish and know your name means “little flag”! 

So, preheat your oven to 375. Place a tortilla in the bottom of a 9 inch cake pan or pie plate. I used a glass pie plate. Mix together 3 eggs (I used some liquid egg whites, too), any veg you have around – I did mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, and add whatever spices you like. I did cajun, pepper, and garlic powder. The mushrooms and onions were already cooked, by the way. 

Put everything on top of the tortilla and bake for 10 minutes. Take out of oven and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of cheese. I used reduced fat Mexican shredded cheese. Cook for 5 more minutes. This whole pizza was 4 WW points for me. So, you can divide it up and have some for a few days or share with family!

Most of the dishes you see me make for Erica and I for lunch and for my fam at dinner (usually just Tom and I) come from this website:

Slender Kitchen – Click the red font and it will take you there. 

Erica found it so I have to give her credit. Tom does not know the meals are healthy if I don’t tell him. Jack and Mason have also enjoyed many of the recipes and I don’t say anything to them, either. 

She has every type of cuisine imaginable or you can search by “chicken” or whatever ingredient you want to use. 

I tend to do a Mexican meal one night, an Asian inspired meal one night, and try to use the types of cuisines. 

Not to be dramatic, but I think I have also become a better cook because of Kristen, the author. She does not know who I am, but I have messaged her to thank her! 

Here are some of my faves – just click on the red type:

Blackening seasoning – so good for fish tacos. I feel like a boss making my own seasoning blend! 

Mango salsa – never knew how easy this was. This is great on the fish tacos with the blackening seasoning! I also feel pretty cool dropping this in conversation: ”Sorry, I have to go make some mango salsa to go with my dinner”. 

Beef bulgogi bowls – So good!

So, the even better thing now is that she has a blue circle with the WW points listed for each recipe – or most recipes. 

I am making this dish this week: 

Kofta Ground Beef Bowls!

Let me know if you check it out or of other sites you like!

  4. So would Tom or your boys not eat it if they knew it was healthy? My husband always asks if what I made is healthy lol. I do not cook separately for him, so if it is something he wouldn’t eat? He has to fend for himself. He doesn’t cook. Anything. Ever. So he LOVES everything I make! haha Winning! I will have to check that website out. I love finding new recipes that use WW points.

  9. Oh, I love finding new sites with recipes and bonus if they’re WW even if I don’t use it anymore. I also like Skinnytaste. She used to give WW points, too. I don’t see them now. But, I swear by her taco chili! I think I’m going to try that Kofta ground beef bowl. It looks delicious! Thanks for sharing.
