Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry – Weight Watchers Recipe
My favorite diet to follow is The Fat Smash Diet; however, I know many others who prefer the Weight Watchers Diet.
Do whatever works best for you.
All that matters is that you eat healthily and stay active, so you not only look great, but also feel energized and self-confident.
Your body will reward you now, and especially in your “Golden Years”, allowing you to continue enjoying life rather than spending time and money in medical facilities.
I found a recipe for a delicious-looking Weight Watchers Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry.
It was pretty quick and easy to prepare, and quite delicious.
Best of all, it’s ONLY 5 points per serving.
This recipe yields at least 4-5 servings.
Serve as is, or with a small serving of Brown Rice...count your points...
