Cheeseburger Muffin Cups
I don't know about you but if I wanting to get healthy and watch my calorie intake, I don't want to always feel deprived of food. I want to feel satisfied and actually enjoy real food. That's one of the reasons I have been experimenting with all kinds of recipes that are Weight Watchers friendly. Life is too short to not enjoy good food.
This recipe makes a great special dinner idea or is a great appetizer. My kids love to have these for a special birthday dinner. I like to know that I can still have them for their special day or for a family get together and still stay on track with my points.
I like to serve these with lots of vegetables or a salad so that I can have some and still feel full with lots of 0 points food.
If you are looking for other scrumptious Weight Watchers recipes that the whole family will enjoy, I have a few that are my readers' favorites such as my 2 Ingredient Dough, my Pepperoni Pizza, and of course my Weight Watchers Shepherd's Pie.
