My First Review: Weight Watchers Smart Ones

I am super excited to share this information with you and super excited to share this my first review. I love finding ways to save money and make great meals for my family. When I was given the opportunity to review the new Weight Watchers Smart ones meals, I jumped at the chance. Let me start by saying that I have used and had much success on the Weight Watchers program and loved the results, although I have not been active participant for some time now, I enjoy buying their meals and don't feel so guilty when I am using them as opposed to making something from scratch.


The meals are a great price, about $3.00 and some change, I was able to find mine for $3.18 a piece. I choose to make the Sesame Chicken and the Chicken Alfredo and Broccoli.

gets my taste buds flowing!

love the food pictures on the bag

I love the size of the meals, I hate when you buy a skillet meal and three bites and they are done! Love Love Love, the amount of food you get for each meal. I also love the idea that you can cook it one of two ways in under 8 minutes. I choose to cook mine on the skillet, that way the kiddos could help to stir the food. They after all love anything they can help me in the kitchen. Any meal that is going to help me create and inspire my kiddos to cook is already a winner in my book!


The food was easy to prepare, cut open the bag, add 1/4 cup of water and cover. Stir it continuously. Easy peasy.

starting to cook

looks appealing even when not cooked

In a little over 15 minutes, I had two great and tasty meals. Yes, I cooked them side by side. I also wanted to compare if one cooked easier than the other.  I enjoyed eating the meals and highly recommend them as a quick meal for dinner or as something to take with you to work. The best part of them is that you can get a great, healthy meal for $3.00 and cook it under 8 minutes. 

After I started to eat the meal, I was worried about how hungry I would be when I was finished and a major thumbs up, I was filled.

looks great and ready to fill my tummy

yummy and so filling
