I'll post this over at the recipes, too, but I'm going out of my mind here. I had seen somewhere a recipe for a BLT Potato Salad. It was only something like 3 points per serving, and I wanted to test it this week at home and see if it's something worth doing for dh's family reunion (his dad's side) coming up on July 6.

Problem is, I've looked through my Weight Watchers magazines 3 times, a healthy cooking magazine 3 times, and my WW cookbook. I cannot find it, and now I'm wondering if it's something I saw online somewhere. I have to look at the WW site and the site with the points calculator. But I am at a loss and am getting so frustrated!

If anyone knows what I'm talking about and can share it, please do!!

TIA

Jenn, this recipe might get you close. If you add some chopped tomato and a few handfuls of chopped spinach, you would be closer.

Thanks, LeeAnne. I'll give this one a try.

I found it! It was in a little Best Life recipe magazine I had picked up in the checkout line a ways back. I had calculated all the points out myself, and this one is only 2 pts/serving. I'm going to give it a test-run this week at home and see if it's worth making for the reunion.

Thanks for your help!

Jenn, did you post the 2 point potato salad recipe somewhere here? I'd be interested in it for sure!

Auntie,

I got your PM and sent it to you. Hopefully you got it. Let me know if you didn't.

Got it, Jenn! Thanks!

OHHHH.. please post it here! I am interested in it too!

Okay, here it is. Mods, if I need to change anything or do it differently, let me know!

I did get the ingredients, plan on trying to make it tomorrow. Looks like part of what makes it low in points is the lettuce and tomatoes added. Fine by me .
