I tried a new recipe today from @hungrygirl ; and it gets a 5-spoon rating 🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄

Being on #wwteampurple now, oatmeal is 0sp. So while I'm still on purple, I thought I'd incorporate it into my breakfast rotation. I am not sure how I feel about the recipe name, but it is delicious and the portion size is BIG without breaking the calorie bank!

What I love about this recipe is that it's so versatile. The basic recipe can be used to create your favorite oatmeal combinations.
Today I made a twist on the apples and cinnamon oatmeal flavor that I remember as a kid using this basic recipe. AND it makes a 2-cup serving for the same calories as a regular portion simply by adding an extra cup of liquid. I mean talk about Big Fat Skinny Dish!

Below is the basic recipe.

Growing Oatmeal Basic Recipe (see what I mean about the name)
1sp💜 5sp💚💙
190 calories

1/2 c old fashioned oats*
1 c unsweetened almond milk (you can use what you like)
1 c water
Dash of salt
1-2 tbsp swerve or other sweetener

Add all ingredients in sauce pan, bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook for 12-15 minutes until thick and creamy. Remove from heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes until thickens. Add toppings and enjoy!

*Here's the thing, you must use regular rolled oats. Instant, quick cooking, or steel cut will not work.

To make Apple Pie Growing Oatmeal (as pictured)
I added #scoopableapplepie filling, 1 tbsp sugar-free pancake syrup, 1 packet of truvia sweetener and 1/4 tsp cinnamon to the sauce pan. Then I topped it with 1 tsp swerve brown sugar while it sat and thickened. #myww #weightlossjourney #eatgreatloseweight #notadiet #bigfatskinnybreakfast #wwteampurple

What's better than FriYAY? How about low point Mac 'n Cheese?

Inspired by @mudhustler_official I created my very own version. And on #wwteampurple this is only 2sp (but calories come in at 400).

This felt like a big splurge to me, but really isn't as long as you measure, measure, measure!

Here's how I did it:

Buffalo Chicken Mug Mac 'n Cheese
2sp💜 7sp💙 9sp💚
400 calories

3/4 cup (dry measure) whole wheat pasta (I used Dellalo Cavatappi)
3 oz cooked chicken breast
1 ounce 2% Velveeta (brick style)
2 tbsp 2% whipped Good Culture Cottage cheese
1/4 c fresh chopped broccoli
1/2 tbsp bacon crumbles
2 c water (or enough that the pasta is completely covered)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp crumbled blue cheese for garnish (optional)

1. In a large microwave-safe mug or bowl, combine water, salt and pasta.
2. Cook in high for 6-minutes, remove, then stir in broccoli, continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes until pasta and broccoli are cooked to your liking. Place plate under bowl or mug, it may boil over.
3. Remove and drain off liquid, mix in the cheeses and set aside.
4. Mix chicken, bacon crumbles, and hot sauce in a small bowl. Microwave until hot.
5. Stir chicken mixture into mac and cheese mixture; serve topped with blue cheese crumbles (which aren't pictured because they were an afterthought!)

After going back and forth for the better part of five days. I'm doing it! I'm making the official move back to #mywwpurple 💜💜💜. It was the plan that I started with and lost 45 pounds before I made the switch to Green. I'm not sure if I will stay with purple long term, but I think it's a good change for me right now. It will not change my modus operandi, I will continue to weigh and measure my portions, but enjoy a wider variety of 0sp foods! What am I most excited about you ask? That would be 0sp potatoes!!!!

This image represents where I was, where I started

This image represents where I was, where I started, and where I am today. As I ponder my progress over the past 287 days, I took note of the area that I've been the most consistent; tracking. Notice I didn't say eating perfectly, or exercising every day, or even staying within my points. I said tracking, for 287 days, I counted every single meal, every single bite, sip and lick and I'm not even kidding! I attribute 90% of my success to consistently tracking. The other 10% is mindset and persistence. So go now and track, and never give up on yourself! #myww #mywwjourney #tracking4life #tracklikeitsyourjob #weightlossjourney #TransformationTuesday #wwcommunity #bigfatskinnyresults #weightwatchers #bigfatskinnyloser

I love cream cheese, but even the light and whippe
