βœ… WW Smart Tips:

  • Use light or reduced-fat cheese (like WW or part-skim shredded) to save 1–2 points.
  • Swap olive oil for a quick spritz of cooking spray to cut 2 points.
  • Sub cauliflower mash for potatoes if you’d like a low-carb, zero-point alternative.
  • Bulk up the meal with extra steamed veggies β€” they’re filling and 0 pts!
