After a long weekend of eating away from home and having to tip-toe around portion selections and choices it was quite a delight to walk in from my weekly WW meeting last night to find dinner made! So while I lack cooking commentary on this one I can say that my grocery selections resulted in a point drop of 8 to 4pts per serving; I can only assume that the original creators were off? This very tasty treat comes from, "WW 101 Best Quick & Easy Recipes," and the taste is really amazing! The combination of tangy orange marmalade and spicy curry together with the coconut flavored rice makes this a wonderful treat on a hot summer night...as I mentioned the recipe dropped drastically in point value and the only noticeable difference is that sugar-free marmalade was used instead of low-sugar and when I point valued the rice for the dish I used only the information for the 2 cups that were being used instead of the whole box, which is where I think the publisher's mistake comes from? At any rate, a very good dish that you (or your loved one) should make! For just 4pts you gotta try Curried Shrimp over Garlic-Basil Coconut Rice
p.s. After last night's weigh-in, I have one pound to lose before hitting 50, I better be good this week!
This blog is dedicated to all of those whom grew up understanding that the essential ingredient in any recipe is good butter. That serving more than one starchy carb per meal passes as ideal country cuisine and the inclusion of a leafy vegetable manifests as greens marinated in fat back. If any of this sounds like you then please join me as I learn how to cook all over again using the healthy principles found in the Weight Watchers manifesto. Good Luck!
