WEIGHT WATCHERS (BLUE) POINT INFORMATION:
I calculated this recipe using the recipe builder on the WW app. I am currently on the blue program. Keep in mind that a great way to cut these points is less cheese and a different pasta – I used what I had on hand in my pantry.
For 9 servings this Cheeseburger Casserole Recipe comes in at 5 points! Not too shabby for a super filling and yummy recipe that you can enjoy with the family and stay on track!!
