My Beau loves when I make these Weight Watchers deviled eggs for him.  They are a great addition to most summer meals, salads, and of course, an easy snack to have on hand.  We typically make 6 at a time, but they keep in the refrigerator well for up to one week.

Crescent Roll Hot Dogs are a popular snack or meal for kids, but I admit, I have always loved the combination with a bit of cheese and mustard for dipping.  Since I’ve been on Weight Watchers, I’ve tried to make our meals work for all of us.  That means coming up with healthier options for foods we all love.  This recipe introduces healthier options to cut the calories and make a meal we all love.

Low-Fat Crescent Roll Hot Dogs

This post contains affiliate links for Amazon. I may earn a commission through purchases made via this link. 

Crescent roll hot dogs are one of the easiest things ever to make.  Plus, they are ideal for making in batches ahead of time to freeze for fast snacks or meals.  They are 5 SmartPoints each, so that may be a bit high for some, but if you have a few extra points, they make a great snack that is super satisfying.

I confess I am pretty picky about the hot dogs I use.  I prefer the Hebrew National 99% Fat-Free when available.  Otherwise, I use Ball Park Turkey Dogs.  Look for fat-free options or any hot dog that is only 1 point per dog.  Also, I find that Pillsbury is the only brand of crescent rolls I can find in reduced fat.  Usually, our store brand is not reduced fat.  Walmart and Kroger stores carry the reduced fat in my region.

Ingredients: 

Reduced Fat Crescent Rolls (1 tube of 8)

8 Fat-Free Turkey Hot Dogs

4 slices 2% American Cheese

Directions: 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place unrolled crescent rolls on an ungreased baking sheet.

Place 1/2 slice cheese and 1 hot dog onto each crescent roll.

Roll from wide end to skinny end, and place at least 2″ apart to allow for expansion when cooking.

Bake on the middle rack for 12-15 minutes or until crescent roll is golden brown and fully cooked.

When calculating the points for this recipe, I use the Recipe Builder within the Weight Watchers App or online dashboard.  I am not affiliated with Weight Watchers.  I am, however, a huge fan of Weight Watchers and have been using the program for several months with success.  If you are wishing to follow the program, check out my tips for Weight Watchers online success.  You may also find that investing in the Weight Watchers SmartPoints Calculator is an easy way to make this affordable.

Typically, I have used basic mustard for dipping.  Since mustard is a free condiment on Weight Watchers, it is definitely a favorite.  If you want to spice things up a bit, just add a bit of steak seasoning to your mustard.  No additional points, and totally yummy!  No matter whether you dip them or eat them as is, these Crescent Roll Hot Dogs are a favorite easy treat that the entire family will love!

This is a great spin on a classic dish.  I love the idea of making these a more savory dish to serve alongside our favorite meals.  Instead of the traditional sweet option, the Weight Watchers mashed sweet potatoes make a great savory option.  They can replace other starches and have great amounts of beta-carotene to add to your diet.

Do you like stuffed peppers but hate how much fat and calories they usually have? Weight Watchers have a recipe for stuffed peppers that tastes great, are easy to make, and they are super healthy too. Let’s take a look at 2 Weight Watchers stuffed pepper recipes.

Herbed Turkey & Rice Stuffed Peppers

Here we have a super health-conscious stuffed pepper dish courtesy of Weight Watchers. The peppers are stuffed with a mixture of rice, ground herbed turkey, and served with a healthy and tasty tomato sauce.

It’s an easy recipe that does not take a lot of time to prepare, plus you don’t have to cook the rice before you put it in the peppers; it cooks while the peppers bake, thus making your life just a little bit easier.

This is a low-calorie dish, one that also does not have much fat or sugar, but it does have a lot of vitamins, minerals, and a good deal of protein. It’s the perfect light and airy summertime dish, but makes for a good belly warmer in the winter too.

Ingredients

The beauty here is that you only require simple ingredients that you can find at any local grocery store around you. The ingredients list is as follows.

• Cooking spray
• 4 uncooked bell peppers – color of your choosing
• 1 large onion, finely chopped, divided in 2 portions
• 3 garlic gloves, minced, divided in 2 portions
• ¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon dill, finely chopped
• Canned tomatoes, crushed, 15 ounces, divided in 2 portions
• ½ cup uncooked white rice
• ¾ pounds 93% lean ground turkey
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ¾ cups water

Directions

As we mentioned, this particular Weight Watchers stuffed pepper dish is very easy to make. The recipe directions are as follows.

1. Preheat your oven to 375° Fahrenheit.
2. Coat an oven-safe baking dish with cooking spray so the peppers do not stick.
3. Slice the top off the peppers and set them aside for later. Remove the ribbons, seeds, and all of the interiors of all of the peppers, being careful to not break or crack the walls of the peppers.
4. In order to make the filling, in a large mixing bowl, combine half of the garlic, onion, and parsley, all of the dill, ¼ cup of tomatoes, rice, turkey, ¾ tsp salt, and black pepper. Set this aside for later.
5. To make the sauce, get a non-stick skillet of medium size and heat the olive oil over medium heat, add the remaining onion, and cook for about 3 minutes, just until the onion is translucent. Add the remaining garlic, cook for 30 seconds, add the remaining tomatoes and ¼ tsp salt, add the water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Let this simmer for about 1 minute.
6. Stuff the peppers to about ¾ the way up, leaving enough room for the rice to expand. Put the lids back on the peppers and add the tomato sauce mixture to the dish around the peppers.
7. Cover the whole baking sheet with foil and allow them to bake for 75 to 90 minutes.

Italian Style Stuffed Peppers – Ground Beef Stuffing

Here we have another very calorie-conscious and healthy stuffed pepper dish to go with, another one that works great with the Weight Watchers SmartPoint system. With very few calories, even less fat, and no sugar at all, it’s another stuffed pepper dish that you can feel happy about serving to anybody. Let’s take a look at the ingredients you will need here.

Ingredients

• 6 large bell peppers – color of your choosing
• 1 pound extra lean ground beef
• 1 cup onions, chopped
• 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
• 1 x 14 ounce paste or pizza sauce
• 1 x 14 ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasonings
• Black pepper, to taste
• ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 12 teaspoons Parmesan cheese

Directions

When it comes down to it, this particular stuffed pepper dish is even easier to make than the other one we just looked at, and it only takes an hour to get from the fridge to the table.

1. Preheat your oven to 400° Fahrenheit.
2. Cut off the lids of the bell peppers and empty out the interior, making sure to leave the walls of the peppers intact.
3. In a large non-stick pan, brown the ground beef, garlic, and onions. Make sure to break it all up finely so the beef cooks evenly. You do want to pour this mixture into a colander once browned in order to get rid of any excess fat from the ground beef.
4. Add the beef, onion, and garlic mix back into the pan, add the tomatoes, pasta sauce, Italian seasoning, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix this very well, bring to a boil, turn it down to a simmer, and allow it to cook for about 5 minutes.
5. Stuff each of the bell peppers with this mixture, up ¾ of the way to the top of the peppers. Make sure the peppers stand upright in the baking dish, and pour the cup of water into the bottom of the dish, so the peppers are sitting in the water.
6. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Remove the foil and sprinkle each pepper with 2 teaspoons of parmesan. Allow this to bake for another 5 minutes.
