I bought the one that is cauliflower and cheese sauce for something a little different from broccoli but not really expecting to like it much but this is so GOOD! And for one little microwave tray it's 0 points.
Has anyone else tried these? I think I can even say this one is good enough to substitute for mac and cheese since it's so high in pts, well that's just me.

I just saw these in the store yesterday and bought the broccoli and cheese ones for my husband to take with him as part of his lunches. Haven't tried them yet but I'm glad to know they're as good as they look!

I have tried both the broccoli and cheese and the one that has broccoli, carrots and italian seasoning. They are GOOD.

I'm sure that the For One's are just like the Green Giant small frozen steam bag's that you microwave I think it is like two servings, anyhow those are good. I like the Broccoli, cauliflower and carrot with cheese sauce (one serving is 1 point) for the regular steam bags.

Zero to 1 point? They sound wonderful, I'll have to put them on my grocery list. Thank you for the tip!

Hungry Girl has a killer mac and cheese recipe using the cauliflower version of this but I could only find the broccoli and cheese the first time and it was great. Google it and I'm sure it will come up.

They are good. I just had one with dinner. My meeting leader said to just be careful with them that they are TECHNICALLY 0 points but they are DANGEROUSLY close to 1pt that she actually counts it as 1pt. I say its not going to hurt to count it as 0 if they say its 0, no one got fat by eating brocoli and that tiny bit of cheese.

Does Hungry Girl give points for each recipe?
