One Point Weight Watchers Breakfast Ideas

When I am following Weight Watchers and going to the meetings, I regularly just like to switch my breakfast with only a few options.  I also like to make sure that the points are super low (never know what the day might throw at you!) and there is plenty of protein in the meal to keep me full until lunch (or at least close to lunch).

Here are my tested, tried and true breakfast options that will not disappoint you and your appetite!

Egg white scramble with any vegetable of choice.  (One point weight watchers recipe)

My favorite is baby greens (kale and spinach) and lots of mushrooms.

It doesn't look that great but look how large that plate is for just one point weight watcher meal.  Use 1/2 cup egg whites and as many vegetables as you choose.  I do add ketchup so I add another point on to this meal.  Use hot sauce to keep the point value at one.

Berry Protein Smoothie (one point weight watchers recipe)

Of course another really good stand-by is a berry smoothie.
I use a banana, berries on hand, baby greens and one cup of almond milk (40 calories per cup)


Greek Yogurt and Berries or any fruit you have one hand (one point weight watchers recipe)
I use the 50 calories cups to keep it down to one point.  So good and really filling.

One Point Weight Watchers Crust-less Quiche

This recipe is a staple in the house when we are all trying to eat healthier and maybe shed a few pounds. It is super filling for only 1 ww points plus per slice. And it is loaded with FREE good for you vegetables. This is good hot, cold or even room temperature. Bring it for your next brown bag lunch or grab a slice for the morning commute I've made this dish so many times that now I just eye ball it. Add different vegetable and you could even add some cheese but than it would no longer be just one point.

Ingredients:



    Natural cooking spray
    2 cups (about 1 onion) thinly sliced yellow onion
    1 pound button mushrooms, thinly sliced
    1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
    1 red pepper 
    2 cups liquid eggs - like egg beaters
    3/4 cup reduced-fat milk
    1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, optional
    1 (16 ounce) bag frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed to remove as much liquid as possible
    Sliced tomato 
    Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch square pan with cooking spray; set aside. Heat spray in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Add mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until liquid is absorbed, 10 to 12 minutes; set aside to cool. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, nutmeg and remaining 1/4
    teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add onion, mushrooms and spinach and mix well. Transfer to prepared pan, spread out evenly and bake until set in the middle and golden brown, about 45 minutes. Let cool 10 or 15 minutes; cut into 24 squares and serve.
