Need Healthy Show Recipe Ideas.

[tabnat80]

I'm doing a show next Thursday (31st) and the host and most of her guest are on weight watchers. I saw a link on here and printed it off of the weight watcher points but I'm still stumped about what to make. I want to make something to showcase our stones. Any recipe suggestions that aren't too challenging. If I can't use a stone, a triffle recipe would be great too. I'm just clueless right now. I have just about all the recipe books that I know of. I just can't decide.

I love making an angelfood cake Trifle - for the cake, line the large barpan with parchment, and then pour in the cake batter - I think the instructions for doing this are in the All The Best Cookbook for another cake that uses Angel Food Cake.

Anyway, then use pudding made with skim milk, and the lite cool whip, mix that together, and then use a layer of berries (probably frozen this time of year, unless you live someplace warm)
Layer:

Angel Food cubes
Berries
Pudding/Coolwhip
Angel Food Cubes
Berries
Pudding/coolwhip

Reserve some cool whip to do rosettes on top, and then grate some nuts or chocolate over the top.

If you use the skim milk, and the lite coolwhip - it's 4 points - if you use sugar free stuff yuck: ) it's 3 points.

I have no idea about WW , but what are the point of Tomato Basil Squares? I love those things! That is what I am making at all my shows for Jan and Feb. They are so simple to do!

Jenifer I would imagine that the point value of the Tomato Basil Squares is high, unless you have a very small piece. It has mayo and cheese. However, I don't know how the point scale works with WW. Usually anything that tastes as good as these squares is NOT good for you!

Wouldn't the "fresh basil" cancel out the bad stuff!! :love:

Actually, it's not that bad. Only 3 points per square (20 squares total). And yes, the basil, as long as it's "fresh" and clipped using the pampered chef kitchen shears in the herb keeper, will make it much healthier. LOL

You could always ask the host if you could use one of her weight watchers books with the point values of food in it. TO help you prepare a better recipe

You could use low fat mayo too. That's all we ever use in my house.

There are some veggie pizzas floating about that are pretty good!

I love the 7 layer SW salad; I usually add chicken to it.

I've done the Berries 'n Cream Wonton Cups in the past for a healthier show/demo. It is on pg 114 of the It's Good For You Cookbook
