Some great, and easy meal ideas from the group!

Before I list the other ideas, Darlene sent this one....

This looks like it could be really yummy! Continuation of Fridays meeting, the photo looks just like garlic bead! DarleneL

Gluten Free Cauliflower Crust or Garlic Bread….via The 21 Day Challenge 

2 cups cauliflower, approx 1 head of cauliflower
2 cups shredded cheese (your choice)
2 eggs
1/4 cup of almond flour or unsweetened coconut
1 tsp salt
Seasoning to taste
Butter or coconut oil



  1. Preheat oven to 425
  2. Steam up your cauliflower, not to soft
  3. Blend it up into a food processor, till it looks like rice
  4. Mix in all other ingredients
  5. Grease your pan, and spread the mixture into your desired thickness and shape.
  6. Cook for 17 minutes.

Some other great and easy meals:
- Grilled eggplant,spaghetti squash with Parmesan cheese
- add some avocado to your sandwich
- grilled portobello mushrooms (i could use some tips on how to cook these...my attempt was not so successful!)
-plant a herb garden - fresh mint sounds yummy
-fish baked with salsa
-original WW zero points veggie soup as an appetizer
-BBQ veggies in tin foil with some olive oil and spices.  Piri Piri spice was mentioned as very a new favourite.
-cottage cheese with crushed pineapple
-peel, dice and cooked apple with cottage cheese and apple pie spice -frozen grapes
-Dijon mustard always adds some zip
-roasted chick peas add a nice crunch to a salad
-mango chutney
-cinnamon - I add some to my raspberries and greek yogurt
-lime tortilla chips- sometimes you just need to spend some points on some crunch!
-fried onions - you don't need as much oil as you think!
-and of course...garlic!

And this one from the WW newsletter sounds fantastic!
