Low point, easy to make dinner!
In case anyone was searching for low point dinner ideas.
I buy the Jack Daniels pulled chicken (I get them from BJs but they also have them at Stop&Shop). Its JD BBQ Pulled chicken- all you do is microwave the bag.
4oz = 3 pts. I just put it on whole wheat bread. The best part is its something you can make for a family. DH loves it too (its hard finding low point foods he likes).
I usually make it with mac&cheese on the side for DH and a sweet potato for me.

Re: Low point, easy to make dinner!
Can you tell me what section of the supermarket this is in? Is it frozen or in the meat area?

You're welcome! They also have pulled pork but I don't know how many points that is.

Re: Low point, easy to make dinner!
Oh I didn't realize it was so low in points. My sister picked it up last week from BJ's - I skipped on having it but DH LOVED it.
I find it very hard to cook dinner for me and him - he is so picky & doesn't like alot of things that are good for you. He also is one of those - can eat all he wants and does not gain weight!!!
So I end up either cooking 2 seperate meals or cooking for him & throwing a frozen Smart One meal in the microwave for myself.

That sounds exactly like me and DH! Thats why I love the pulled chicken- its a guy friendly food but has WW friendly points. The best way I've found to get around making different foods is with side dishes. I make veggies for myself and then mac and cheese for DH (or something else he likes).
But I agree with you- its so hard to please DH and make something healthy!

Does anyone know where in stop and shop this is located? i couldn't find it yesterday. :(

It's by the "short cuts cooked chicken", canned ham, etc.

Those are the ones I get (as I mentioned in my original post)- you seem to get more for your money. I wish I had more freezer space to stock up on an extra package or two during my BJ runs.
