Weight Watchers Goulash – 7 Points Plus!

I’ve been doing pretty well on my Weight Watchers trek – I lost 10 pounds in the first month! That said, I’m cooking a lot more and packing my lunch a LOT more. One of my favorite comfort foods growing up was Goulash (well at least that’s what my Dad called it). So I was really happy to find something similar on Weight Watchers site – Cheesy Chili-Mac.

First you cook up some ground beef and onion (you could add mushrooms too!). Then you add tomatoes, tomato juice and a few spices…Next throw in beans and macaroni! (You can also use Quinoa Macaroni to add some whole grain goodness to the recipe.)


If you make according to the recipe – it’s 7 pts/serving. It’s a great comfort food recipe that went through quite a few lunches as well.

    Looks really good! Where do you find Quinoa macaroni? And is that 2 to 3 lbs of ground beef or 2/3 of a lb? Thanks!

    two-thirds

    and i have found quinoa macaroni at kroger, meijer and whole foods – you just have to look for it – it's usually tucked away on the bottom shelf somewhere – usually near the grains (rice)

    Fun recipe! I wonder if it's a regional thing, calling it goulash. We grew up with the elbow mac/tomatoes/hamburger variety.
