Weight Watchers Cheese Blog Tour @WeightWatchersSupermarketFoods

Ever have that guilty feeling after snacking?  Well Weight Watchers Cheese is a great way to get your cheese fix without the guilt.

I received samples of Weight Watchers Jalapeno Pepper Wedges, Pepper Jack Singles, Reduced Fat Whipped Cream and Strawberry Cream Cheese spreads for review.  All of the products were delicious.  

The Jalapeno wedges had the right touch of spice and spread perfectly across toast points, crackers and my fingers.  Well, my youngest and I had fun just unwrapping and eating the wedges.  30 calories, 1 gram of fiber and 2 grams of protein and only 1 PointsPlus per wedge. 

The Pepper Jack singles were just as delicious and made for the best paninis ever.  I grilled some veggies and topped with a slice of the Weight Watchers Pepper Jack singles.  They also added a punch to my turkey wrap. What a tasty way to sneak a little more calcium and much needed fiber into your day and only 1 PointsPlus per serving.  I melted a few slices atop by Meatless Monday Lasagna for a little kick!  DELICIOUS! 

Weight Watchers Reduced Fat Whipped Cream was the perfect touch of creaminess to my chicken pasta and veggies.  If you are only using cream cheese spreads for bagels your taste buds are missing out.  Flavor up your meal, add fiber, calcium and 2 PointsPlus per serving!  I used the Strawberry Cream Cheese Spread to make grilled fruit skewers (recipe provided by Weight Watchers) and a delicious, low calorie strawberry cream cheese pie.  (see below for both recipes)
