New Favorite Lunch

I have already admitted my addiction to Feta cheese.  I use it on salads, in sandwhiches, and now in my new favorite lunch.  It's quick, easy, and filling!  I really would eat three helpings of this every day if I wasn't working on my self control problem.  It's that delicious!


Spicy Chicken Sausage with Spinach, Mushrooms and Feta:
1 Serving = 5 WW+ Points


  • Trader Joe's Spicy Chicken Sausage {Or any kind of chicken sausage you prefer - points may vary}
  • 1 tsp I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
  • 3 Cups Organic Spinach
  • 1 Cup Sliced Button Mushrooms
  • 1 oz Feta Cheese {President Feta is only 1pt for 1oz}

Heat sausage in pan according to directions.  Remove and slice into chunks.  Add 1tsp butter to pan, sautee spinach and mushrooms.  When almost completely wilted, add chicken chunks to pan.  Finish cooking.  Plate it up, and toss with feta while still hot.  

Enjoy!

Mediterranean Lunch

Let's just put it out there...

I am addicted to Feta cheese. 

I could put it on anything, and sometimes do.  So, imagine my surprise when I actually weighed a serving size of one ounce and saw how much that actually was, and for only ONE POINT (I use President Feta in the bulk container from Costco). 

I made this delicious lunch the other day and have had it every day since.  It is 7 points in total, including the whole ounce of Feta.  The hummus is filling and this lunch lasts me hours, which is probably why I keep making it.  You can skip the salad and the sandwhich would only be 5.5 points on the Points Plus program:

Sandwhich:
  • 1 Sandwhich Flat (the one I used is 3 points)
  • 2 Tbsp Garlic Hummus (Trader Joe's is only 2 points)
  • 1 Roma Tomato
  • .5 ounce Feta Cheese
Salad:

  • 1 C Organic Baby Spinach
  • .5 ounce Feta Cheese (Total Feta = 1 oz for 1 PP)
  • 1 Roma Tomato
  • 2 Tbsp FF Balsamic Vinaigrette (I use Trader Joe's at 1 PP per serving)
