To make the Grape Salad recipe more Weight Watchers-friendly, we’ll need to adjust the ingredients and provide the SmartPoints values where applicable. Here’s a modified version:
Weight Watchers-Friendly Creamy Grape Salad
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces fat-free cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup fat-free sour cream
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol, Stevia)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pounds green grapes, seedless (rinsed and dried)
- 2 pounds red grapes, seedless (rinsed and dried)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol brown sugar blend)
- Optional: Pecans for topping (adjust SmartPoints accordingly)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Grapes:
Rinse and thoroughly dry the green and red grapes. Set them aside. - Creamy Base:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened fat-free cream cheese, fat-free sour cream, granulated sugar substitute, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or whisk to blend until smooth. - Combine with Grapes:
Gently fold the green and red grapes into the creamy mixture until all grapes are evenly coated. - Sweet Drizzle:
Sprinkle the brown sugar substitute over the grape and cream mixture. Gently fold it in, ensuring even distribution. - Chill and Marinate:
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld. - Optional Crunch:
If desired, top with pecans just before serving for added texture. Adjust SmartPoints accordingly based on the amount used. - Serve and Enjoy:
Give the salad a final gentle stir before serving. Enjoy as a sweet side dish or dessert.
SmartPoints Information:
- Fat-free cream cheese and fat-free sour cream are zero SmartPoints on most Weight Watchers plans.
- Granulated sugar substitute and brown sugar substitute are also zero SmartPoints.
- Pecans will add SmartPoints depending on the amount used; calculate based on your specific plan.
