The SmartPoint values and nutritional information is estimated and figured based off the brand of ingredients listed in the recipe using the WW app. The SmartPoint values may vary depending on the brand of ingredients used. To calculate the Smartpoint value on a recipe you will need to enter the ingredients in the WW app manually by creating a recipe using the recipe builder. The WW app does not recognize the zero point ingredients in recipes and will calculate it based only off the nutritional information; which will not be accurate.

    Pretty new to WW and loving your recipes! I made your sausage & cheese biscuits. They are sooooo good! Taste kinda like sourdough. I’ll defini make these again.

    so many of your recipes call for yogurt and they sound just wonderful but I have tried yogurt of all types and I just can’t get it down is there any substitute for yogurt that I could use. Thanks in advance

      You can substitute the yogurt for some of the recipes with non fat sour cream. That is higher in points but could make for a great substitute. Thank you

      Hi Stephanie,

      The gravy mix can cause that. You can always add the vegetables after 2 hours that way they are not soaking in the gravy as long.

      Thanks so much!
