Veggie Crunch Salad {Weight Watchers 2 PointsPlus}

Thursday, January 8, 2015 by Lolli 7 Comments

I was shopping at Trader Joe’s yesterday and was offered a sample. Never one to turn down a Trader Joe’s sample, I took a bite and was amazed. I don’t typically grab the sample products as readily as I did yesterday, but I HAD to make this salad at home. Not only was it full of flavor and a fun crunch, but I knew that the ingredients would fit perfectly with my Weight Watchers “diet.” I already had a few of the ingredients on hand at home, grabbed what I didn’t already have, and set off for my kitchen to make some for dinner.

Before I mixed everything up, I plugged in all of the ingredients to my Weight Watchers calculator and was so impressed that a heaping cup of this salad was only 2 Points Plus value. 2 Points? That’s awesome! And because it’s full of hearty, fresh vegetables, beans, and a little bit of cheese, it’s a rather filling salad.

I stored what my husband and I didn’t eat this evening for lunches for the next few days. My mouth is already watering for lunch tomorrow.

Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • ½ cup chopped broccoli
  • ½ cup chopped carrot
  • ½ cup chopped green cabbage
  • ½ cup chopped red cabbage
  • ½ cup chopped jicama
  • ½ cup chopped green bell pepper
  • ½ cup chopped radish
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ⅔ cup fat free feta cheese
  • ¼ cup "light" or low-fat vinaigrette dressing (I used a champagne vinaigrette from Trader Joe's)
Instructions
  1. Chop vegetables. If you prefer one or a few of the veggies in this blend over others, feel free to use any combination of amounts as long as the final amount of chopped vegetables equals 4 cups.
  2. Add drained black beans, feta cheese, and vinaigrette to veggies and toss. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate. Stores well for a few days.
  3. Note: Makes approximately 6 cups of salad. 2 Points+ Value based on 1-cup serving size. Using regular vinaigrette or regular feta cheese will effect the Points+ Value.
  4. Variation: add diced, cooked chicken breast, tuna, or diced lunch meat for a change (adding meat will effect the PP value).

I just happened to be interested in finding more tasty, filling, and healthy recipes to make for myself that fit within the goals that I have for my health, and I love to share the recipes I find! I was paid to post this.

    This looks great! I lost weight on Weight Watchers over 7 years ago and still follow the plan every day to maintain. I am always happy to find a new and different recipe with low points. I still go by the old point system which would make this 1 point I think! Pinned and making this this week!

    This salad looks fantastic! And even though we aren’t really “watching” our calories, we always appreciate a dish that is just plain good for you. This is definitely a recipe that belongs in our repertoire, simply because it is chock full of nutritious goodness! Thanks for sharing!
