So wayyyyy back in March the folks behind the new Weight Watchers Fresh Fit meals were generous enough to send me a huge box of the products to try. However, because of a delay in delivery they didn't arrive until I was away for my wedding and they spoiled by the time we returned. However, they were super kind and sent me a whole bunch of free meal vouchers so I could get them at the grocery store.
*I stole the picture from the internets because the pictures I took of the Weight Watchers meals was on my Blackberry, which is no longer a part of the family!*
At first I was skeptical because I'm not a huge fan of the SmartOnes frozen meals and tend to prefer Lean Cuisine's if I'm going to have a low pointage frozen meal. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty they are! I first tried the Chili con Carne. It was a little bland for me and I ended up adding a little salt (I know, I know) and pepper. It was very filling, however and I found myself not needing an afternoon snack.
My favorite was the baked ziti. SO SO SO tasty! It literally tasted like a restaurant dish. I didn't need to add a single thing and in fact, I brought a small salad to the law school to have with it and ended up being too full to eat the salad. It was to die for!
Madre sampled a few as well and she really like the barbeque chicken and mashed sweet potatoes. I'm always scared of dishes with frozen chicken because sometimes it doesn't taste or have the texture of real chicken, but this was really good. It is real chicken and the sweet potatoes have just the right balance of sweetness.
I also gave the potato salad a whirl when I was home for the bar exam. I felt guilty eating it and I kept checking all of the points to make sure that it was really a Weight Watchers product. It was creamy and tasted like "full fat" potato salad!
I didn't have the opportunity to sample the entire line because of all of the graduation hoopla and moving across the pond, but I really did like what I tried. If you haven't given then a try I really suggest you do! They can be found in most deli sections. I think y'all should definitely give the baked ziti a whirl, if nothing else. You'll thank me!
Sorry this is so late! I got so busy with everything that it didn't dawn on me that I had not ever posted about them until yesterday.
Now tell me- Have you tried the new Weight Watchers Fresh Meals?
*Although I received the products for free, my opinion is all of my own and I'm only endorsing the products because I truly and genuinely loved them!*
