Best Lightened Up Bechamel Sauce 2 Ww Pts Recipes
LIGHTENED UP BECHAMEL SAUCE - 2 WW PTS.
Bechamel is a wonderful white sauce that you can add on top of pasta, chicken, etc. dishes. It usually consists of butter and cream so this version is much lighter but with all the flavour. I like to use it on pasta instead of alfredo sauce. Enjoy!

MOCK BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE DANISH WW 2 PTS
I have always loved doughnuts and danishes for breakfast. Once I started eating healthier, I really missed them. This is what I came up with as a substitute, and I now love them more than the full fat version! You can also use sliced strawberries or peaches in place of the blueberries, or a little sugar free jam.
