CHILLED MINTED MELON SOUP



Chilled minted melon soup image

Serve this cool minty dish as a first course or an after-dinner treat to beat the summer heat. Pre-cut melon makes preparation a breeze. While the ginger may seem like an unexpected addition, its spicy bite adds depth and elevates the flavor giving this fruit forward soup a fresh spin. For variation, you could replace the honeydew with either cantaloupe or watermelon. You can make this soup ahead and store it in the refrigerator-just give it a good stir before serving. Plan to double it to enjoy with lunch or to keep handy for a refreshing snack later in the week.

Winter Melon Soup With Barley and Goji Berries image

This soup helps eliminate excess fluid from the body. It is also supposed to help whiten the skin and get rid of acne. Barley helps to soothe the stomach and it is good if you have an easily irritable stomach. Omit the ginger if you really do not like it.

WW NO-COOK ASIAN PEANUT SAUCE (2 PTS)



Ww No-Cook Asian Peanut Sauce (2 Pts) image

A delicious and easy recipe from Weight Watchers. They suggest serving this yummy sauce over whole-wheat noodles, Julienned cucumbers, or other fresh veggies. I like using this sauce with a chicken satay. I have made a few minor adjustments but none that will effect the point values. By using natural peanut butter you avoid hydrogenated shortening andsweeteners because it is just made from ground peanuts and a little salt.

Great summer soup. It sounds really weird, but it's so good. DH says absolutely not to leave out the watermelon because it really adds to the flavor of the broth (even though you put it in at the very end) and the broth is really fantastic.

Mock Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish Ww 2 Pts image

I have always loved doughnuts and danishes for breakfast. Once I started eating healthier, I really missed them. This is what I came up with as a substitute, and I now love them more than the full fat version! You can also use sliced strawberries or peaches in place of the blueberries, or a little sugar free jam.
