If you type in Weight Watchers into the little search box at the left of this screen - and select 'anythime' in the drop down box, you'll find a whole page of threads.
The best thing about Weight watchers is you can eat normal everyday food and just work out the points... I don't make any particular recipes... just point out what we normally eat and make the quantities suit what points I have available... If I feel like a big bacon buttie... I eat one... then I make sure the rest of the day is lower.We find this helpful.. then you can work out anything with a nutritional label
One of my faves was, making an omelette with 2 eggs, and whatever veges I wanted ie onion, mushroom, small brocolli florets capsicum, tomato etc etc...and always put a little grating of Edam cheese to melt on top.. found it filling as with one piece of bread...didnt always eat the bread( I use the Molenberg balance range).

Another fave meal is, A piece of steak or Chicken breast seasoned and grilled, then sliced and served hot over a salad (lettuse,sprouts,carrot,tomato- ,cucumber,spring onion, cottage cheese).
Some other things I also add hot to the salad, depending what I have got or feel like are...hot fresh asparagus, sauteed onions and/or mushrooms, tomatoes. The good thing is you can add or omit what ever you do/ don't like. Just if what you add has points keep a track of them.

I don't have a recipe for you, but after trying LOTS of frozen meals - I can tell you that IMO Wattie's meal sensations are the best!I didn't like the honey soy chicken one much, but the penne, alfredo & thai beef are all quite nice - the veges in particular (1 serve per pack) are gooood!Also for a quick meal the Ingham's lite chicken is nice - and 1.5 points per piece (100g).I had one tonight with rice, feta, broccoli & onion.6.5 points - not bad :)

If you do Weight Watchers online, like me, there are heaps of recipes available on the site.Usually I do the same as toadfish and just work out the points for what I normally cook but I also picked up a few new recipes from the website.

Lamb and vegetable hot pot with herb dumplings
Ingredients 1 Tbsp olive oil 600 g lean lamb steak, (buy 700g) fat trimmed, cut into 3cm pieces 1 medium brown onion, chopped 2 small carrot(s), peeled, chopped 200 g fresh mushrooms, halved 1 Tbsp fresh thyme, finely chopped 1 Tbsp plain flour 1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce 2 cup(s) chicken stock, salt reduced, (500ml) 1 cup(s) self-raising flour, (150g) 50 g Weight Watchers Canola Spread 1 small egg(s), lightly beaten 2 Tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped 1 Tbsp fresh rosemary 1/3 cup(s) skim milk, (80ml)
Instructions Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan-forced. Heat oil in a 2L (8-cup) capacity shallow flameproof casserole dish over high heat.Cook lamb, in batches, turning, for 2–3 minutes or until browned.
Add onion, carrot, mushrooms and thyme to dish and cook, stirring, for 5–7 minutes or until vegetables are softened. Add plain flour and stir to coat. Combine Worcestershire sauce and stock in a jug.
