Sunday Dinner is a special occasion for many families and is considered an important tradition in many cultures and households. It provides an opportunity for families to come together and spend quality time with one another and enjoy each other's company after a long week.
However, when you are on the Weight Watchers program, it can be tough to find recipe ideas the whole family will love. I make these WW Sunday Dinner recipes for my family regularly and they actually don't even realize they are weight watchers friendly and neither will your family, or whomever you serve these to!
And you don't have to be on the WW program to love these recipes because WW is simply normal healthy eating. You'll love these Weight Watchers meals that go beyond just chicken breast. I have also included the points in the recipe descriptions and you'll find recipes with zero points, as well! These recipes are popular any time of the year.
