Last week’s Weight Watchers Freestyle menu had some awesome new recipes. Here they are in case you’d like to print them out:
Slow Cooker Soft Chicken Tacos with Pineapple Salsa

Oven Roasted Cheesy Cauliflower

Love the recipes you post have to try some of them
Good ideas. I was worried that premier protein causes weight gain. Any problems there? How about muscle milk.E
Elizabeth, you can have anything as long as you count it towards your daily points. Otherwise, no weight gain with Premier Protein – I usually have 1 per day. Never tried Muscle Milk, but I don’t see why you can’t have it as long as you count it. I don’t know how many points Muscle Milk is, but the Premier Protein’s are 2. I personally don’t like drinking my points so 2 points is my limit. The Premier Protein’s are extremely filling and to me, could easily be a breakfast in and of itself. Good luck!
