I don’t know if you have seen the popular Mama’s Feta Tomato Pasta Bake trend, but a fellow Weight Watchers member Denise Meehan just had to try and adapt this recipe to Weight Watchers and what a Total, DELICIOUS success!
And this is what is so great about the Weight Watchers lifestyle. You really can eat any dish you want- even pasta!
Imagine Mama’s Feta Tomato Pasta Bake recipe is -Just 4 points on Blue for 1/6 of a 9×13 pan!
Some notes: You could also decrease the olive oil and it would still be delicious. But Denise says you should still use some, rather than spray, because it lends to the final sauce. She topped hers with fat free mozzarella, and her daughter use reduced fat parmesan. She tried to stick pretty true to the original recipe components, and says she will modify next time. You could easily add chicken or shrimp to bulk it up and it would be excellent for no added points.
But bottom line- According to Denise she is 100% making this again!
Keep reading for the delicious details!
