Does anyone have a quick, weight-watchers friendly dinner I can run out and pick up, throw together?

Need an idea for something my teens will eat that won't blow all my points for the week!

Make tacos, have yours on a salad.

Sushi, get them chinese
Pho, don't eat the noodles

rotisserie chicken. eat yours skinless, over a big green salad. kids can eat the chicken with a side salad and if they are like mine with something carb-y like tater tots

Really in my mind the trick is to lower the carbs. So for instance tonight I did pork chops, steamed broccoli and carrots, and beets. The pork chops were 5 min on the George Foreman grill and I steamed the veggies at the same time (the beets were in the oven and took longer)

I also often do yams--not potatoes, or sweet potatoes, but yams. They aren't zero, but they are low. You can do them in the microwave in about 5 minutes, but I like to do them in the oven at 400F for one hour, and flip them over and stab them with a fork halfway through for caramelized juices…

I stay away from potatoes…just not good on the glycemic index and not good, point-wise. Yams are a healthier substitute!

Now if I could just stop my Dh from appearing after the kids are in bed with an ice cream cone or popcorn "made just for" me…maybe I could hit my goal!!

Lavash bread pizzas take five minutes in the oven. 5 Points Plus for half, 10 Points Plus for the whole thing. You can add a lot of turkey pepperoni for just 1 more Points Plus. Recipe at http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/09/lavash-flatbread-pizzas.html.

I also like Poached Eggs and Pasta (recipe at http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=795169). Yummy, super fast and easy, kid-friendly and 9 Points Plus.
