My husband and I get take-out from a local pizza place. I usually get a chicken, bacon, ranch dressing wrap from them. This last time I tasted my husband's pasta dish and next time I'm going to get it instead.

When my kids come home we love Pizza Hut original, cheese stuffed crust, meat lovers, filled with points but my kids favorite. Not healthy but tastes great for a treat!
The Bangor train station bakery owned by friends has a wonderful egg, bacon breakfast type muffin I love, not sure on points though as I usually estimate it.
I find I usually eat the same foods all the time and find every so often if I go to a different grocery store to do weekly shopping it gets me out of that rut of buying and eating the same thing every week. Sometimes I think that's why I over eat because I get sick of eating the same thing.🤔

Yasso yogurt bars: Fudge Brownie, chocolate peanut butter chocolate chip, & sea salt caramel are favorites.

* boiled egg and fruit for snacks...being on the blue plan kind of shifted my thinking * had some less than flavorful avocado I needed to use up so tried mashing it with a boiled egg. The points were "high" with 3 points for 2oz of avocado BUT if I were to count points for the boiled egg and mayonnaise or even low-fat/non-fat mayonnaise it would have been the same. That said...I would usually use nonfat labne and it would be zero points for the same treat

Greek yogurt dressing. I blend fat free plain Greek yogurt with ranch seasoning and 1 tsp canola or olive oil. I use it to make tuna salad, or dip for crudités, spread on bread for sandwiches. Sometimes I add 1 tsp. Of pesto sauce to the yogurt for another nice dip or to spread on chick or fish.

lizlor, yes, I always sub NF Greek yogurt for sour cream in recipes. It tastes better! Not that new, but roasting vegetables has been a revelation for me. So tasty. Also switching to vegetable pizza. I love it. Don't miss the pepperoni at all.

lani, This goes back decades but in the late 1970's/early 1980's a friend introduced me to garbage pizza. I would order everything on it except anchovies. It was wonderful.

bbbearsmom, hah! I love anchovies. My old boss and I used to fight over them when we'd have group lunches out at the pizzaria.
