Weight Watchers 4-Point Cannellini Bean Soup

February 5, 2015 By Linda 9 Comments

weight-watchers-recipe soup

I did it.

 

Finally.

 

After weeks of talk, talk, talk, I’ve finally pulled the trigger.

 

I got rid of the port wine cheese. And the cookie dough ice cream. And the three-cheese ravioli. And the Domino’s pizza … and cheesy bread. And any and everything with even the remotest traces of chocolate.

 

And by got rid of, I mean I ate it all.

 

It was almost like, in anticipation of eating healthy, I binged on all my favorites.

 

And my appetite for carbs and chocolates has been sated.

 

For now.

 

This past weekend, I shopped and chopped and boiled and brewed and stocked the fridge and freezer with great-tasting-good-for-me foods.

 

I also adopted the annoying habit of photographing everything I eat …

… like this super easy and super tasty Cannellini bean soup.

 

And don’t let the fancy name scare you away. Cannellini beans are simply white kidney beans  you can find in the canned veggie section of any grocery store.

    A couple of things… Those look an awful lot like Great Northern beans-bigger than Cannolini beans. I imagine they would be interchangeable? I love both. I’ll try this for sure. But I’m with Bliss-2servings for sure. And that exercise thing? Do it. Just do it!

      WW has a recipe builder where you add all the ingredients and number of servings and they tell you how many points per serving. Hope that helps!
