We've partnered with Weight Watchers to share takeout-style recipes that will keep your wellness plan on track. The brand new Weight Watchers Freestyle™ program now includes more than 200 Zero SmartPoints® foods, from skinless chicken and turkey breast, to eggs, fish, seafood, beans, tofu, nonfat plain yogurt, and so much more! Now you can count less and enjoy more.
These burgers are as versatile as they are delicious, 'grammable, and filled with Zero Points® ingredients. If basil isn't your thing, swap it out for crisp arugula, and try rubbing the freshly grilled bread with a clove of garlic for extra flavor. Whatever you do, remember to always cook the burgers to an internal temperature of 165ºF . . . and enjoy!
