Summertime :)

Here are some tips to some lowfat outdoor fun:

1. Arnolds (seperate the top from the bottom so you have 2 pieces) In a bowl, mix a packet of either fat free or light cream cheese with a packet of Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix) Spread that on top of the arnolds . Cut each half into 4 slices and then top with a slice of cucumber and sprinkle on some dill... DELISH
2. A veggie tray with dip (I use breakstone's Fat Free Sour Cream and a packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Dip) This is a great staple app to have things to pick on that are healthy
3.) Turkey Pepperoni and Reduced Fat Kraft Sharp Cheddar Cheese with Fiber Select Wheat Thin Crackers
4.) Crab Ball -mix Fat Free Cream Cheese and a can of jumbo lump crab meat then top with cocktail sauce Served with Fiber Select Wheat Thin Crackers
5.) Shrimp Cocktail
6.) Chicken and Veggie Skewers on the grill
7.) Salsa made with a can of mexican corn, a can of black beans (rinsed), 2 avocados, a diced plum tomato, 1/4 cup of salsa and garlic and onion powder to taste. Serve with baked scoops it is DELISH!
8.) Turkey burger stuffed with a wedge of laughing cow cheese on the grill
9.) Filet and Veggie Skewers on the grill

Ummm...that is all that I can think of for now but anyway I'm sure you get my jist :) Anyway happy summer eating and I will talk to you soon!!

They are all delicious and taste like a creamier version of cream cheeese. Stuffed Mushrooms Serving Size : 16 3 cup mushrooms 12 wedges Laughing Cow Cheese — Light - Garlic & Herb flavored 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs Clean mushrooms and remove stems. Chop stems. Unwrap cheeses and place in microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute to soften. Combine crumbs, mushroom stems and cheese. Take spoonfuls and fill mushroom caps. Place mushroom caps filling side up on ungreased cookie sheet. Cook 20 minutes at 400 degrees Farenheit or until stuffing is lightly browned on top. Let cool, then serve. Mushrooms will be juicy.

Popcorn!

Too funny. I had the hardest time figuring out how many points my Orville Redenbacher 94% fat free smart pop popcorn was for the WHOLE bag... well apparently I'm not alone.... I was on my favorite blogsite, Roni's Weigh and found this old post of hers: This is one of the most asked questions on the Weight Watchers boards. Why is it so tough calculate points for popcorn?
