Real Chics, Real Food:Changing Up Your Diet with Skinny Taste

When you are dieting/changing your lifestyle/ or whatever else you would like to call it, you get bored easily. Eating the same 3 meals and 2 snacks everyday or at least Monday through Friday can literally be the sole reason for you falling off the bandwagon and into the nearest McDonald's.Therefore, I have made a pack to myself to start trying new recipes and actually following the recipe so I end up with something new instead of something I normally eat.

What has truly helped me is the wonderful website called Skinny Taste. This fabulous woman creates new and exciting recipes weekly that include all of the nutritional information AND the weight watchers points on the new system and the old system.


Chicken Cacciatore served with spagetti




Pork Chops with Dijon Herb Sauce served with brown rice



Both of these recipes were hits with me and the husband. I also made the Peruvian Roasted Chicken (minus the sauce). I may not even be able to get good pictures of that since my husband brought a whole bunch for lunch today. I actually did it with drumsticks instead of a whole chicken and it was still amazing!

My goal is to introduce at least 2 new recipes to my household a month. I will also do my best to take pictures, since as you can see, my meals looked nothing like the pictures on Skinny Taste BUT they tasted really good.

Do you have any favorite healthy recipe sites that you use?

  2. This website has COMPLETELY changed my dieting life and has helped me transition into lifestyle change. I don't think there is a recipe she doesn't have on this thing. Its amazing. I make about 3 recipes a week from this site and its made it so easy to keep my diet going. My three week Weight Watcher weigh in last week had me down 14 pounds. I'm making the chicken rollatini tonight and praying my next weigh in will have me at least three pounds down for a 17 pound weight loss for a month. Ive been working hard, eating right, and getting full on DELICIOUS items. I'm excited to keep it going. Good luck ladies and thanks for talking about this site :)
