For Those of You Who Are on Weight Watchers, Need Recommendations Please
Hi,
I just joined! Now that I am going back to work I would love to know what you guys find to be yummy meals(frozen or not) to make in the microwave. Would you say Lean Cuisine meals are tastier then WW? I'll take any advice/tips as a delve into this new "world".
Thanks so much

Not on WW but have eaten Smart Ones and Lean Cuisines and I find LC's to have more flavor. My absolute favorite are the Asian style dumplings w/ rice.

I agree! I use them for convience at work and usually buy whichever brand is on sale.
I do like the Smartones 3 cheese ziti marinara- my all time fave!
Delish
But lean cusine has better options too.
Their paninis are really good!

I thin the LC are the best.
Love the Sesame chicken with pasta and the Dumplings with rice. Also love the fettucine alfredo.
But I too buy whatever is on sale.

While these are convenient they have a lot of sodium which may slow ur weight loss. It happened to me.

ITA these meals are really high in sodium and not really that good for you.

I was going to say the same thing!! While I do have these meals once in awhile, I try to limit it.
If you have time, the beginning of the week I would just make a bunch of your own microwaveable meals (this is what I do).
Try whole wheat cous cous, brown rice, or quiona. Add in grilled chicken or shrimp. Then put in some veggies (peppers and onions are my favorite). You can also add in black beans.
A lot of the meals you can copy- for example the mexican rice and beans (a Smart Ones)- measure out your brown rice, black beans, some FF cheese, etc. Bring salsa on the side to put on.
You can also do a whole wheat pasta salad.
Or maybe make your own soups- Skinny taste has some great soups. You can have a half sandwich or salad on the side.

I like Lean Cuisines better than SmartOnes but, I feel you can get more bang for your buck pointwise if you make something yourself. (and the sodium thing as well).

I do not like any of the ww Italian meals. The cheese is so fake tasting.
Love lc Asian style dumplings and also love the sesame chicken.
