Re: THE NEW RECIPE THREAD FOR WW!!!!!!
I'm sorry I don't really use ww recipes  I tend to eat a lot of same things though so I will post some ideas if that will help 
Breakfasts
Instant oatmeal packets - 2-3 pts/cup
Special K Cereal (protein plus) - 1 pt/cup
Egg/white omlettes
Egg white sammies - 2.5 pts total
-2 egg whites .5 pts
-1 stop and shop light bagel (only 1 pt!)
-2% fat free cheese (I like it better than fat free and it is 1 pt just like the ff)
Lunch is usually leftovers for me - if you are on the go some great options are:
Subway
Taco Bell (fresco menu)
Au Bon Pain (usually has some sort of low-point soup)
Panera has some great low point options also
Big salad full of veggies, grilled chicken and a light dressing (I love Ken's Light Northern Italian Dressing - 1 pt for 2 Tbsp)
Pizza - 6pts (I usually get it loaded with veggies)
Dinners (main)
Chicken Burgers (I call them Bollywood Burgers)! - I make them with indian spices (curry, cumin, garam masala, crushed garlic, shredded onion, sea salt and fresh ground pepper) - 5 pts can be less if you find ground chicken breast or make them smaller
BBQ Chicken thighs - YUM! 3 pts each
London Broil 4 or 5 pts for 3 oz
I make my own bolognese sauce with 93% lean or better beef, plain tomato sauce, some tomato paste and my own seasonings (pts depend on serving) - I have this on top of whole wheat pasta
Chicken breast (grilled, breaded and baked, roasted)
Chicken sausages from trader joes - sooooooooooooo good they have all different kinds
Boars head light hot dogs - 2 pts
Sides
Whole wheat pasta - 4pts/cup
Whole wheat couscous - 4 pts/cup
Brown basmati rice - 4pts/cup
Black beans or Bean salad
Corn on the cob - 2pts for a large
Green Beans/Mixed frozen veggies
Baked Potato - 1 large = 3 pts
Homemade Fries or sweet potato fries (cut, sprinkled with olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper and baked) - pts depends on serving size
If you want a shortcut you can buy frozen fries and it is 2 pts/serving
Soycutash from TJ (soy beans, corn and pepper mix) - 1 pt for 2/3 cup
Other misc items
Stop and shop light hot dog/hamburger buns - 1 pt each
Snacks
94% fat free popcorn minibags
Frozen fruit bars (1 or 2 pts depending on)
Pretzels - 2 pts per serving
Pickles - 0 pts
Fat free sugar free pudding 
Babybel light cheese - 1 pt
