What is an Irish 7 course meal?
A 6-pack and a potato.
Happy St. Patrick's Day! I am sorry but I couldn't come up with a suitable less than 30 minutes recipe that represents my Irish heritage. Corned beef and cabbage, any potato casseroles and even beer bread takes longer than 30 minutes. So I have come up with a very lazy menu for St. Patrick's Day.
1 potato
1-1 inch cube of white extra sharp cheddar cheese
3 tsps. butter
2 Tbs of a grainy brown mustard
1 Guinness/ Bass etc.
Scrub and rinse potato, poke holes in it with a fork. "Bake" in microwave at least 5 minutes. Split open and add cheese and butter and nuke again until melted. Add mustard, pop open a beer and grub down.
Potato= 3 points
Cheese= 3 points
Butter= 3 points
Mustard= 0 points
Dark beer= 3 points
12 points! Damn no wonder everyone in my family has heart disease and diabetes!!

i love that you post recipes with the weight watcher point value.. when i broke my back 9 years ago, my weight went up to almost 175. the point program helped me get back down to my goal weight of 110 in a reasonable ammount of time. i still count my points everyday and its been years and i haven't gained anything back.. i LOVE it!!
i also love anything potato.. yumm!
Weight Watchers is the most balanced "diet" plan out there. It's not really a diet, I think it's just learning how to eat. I used to have an amazing metabolism and could eat whatever I want and grew up with a fattening diet. When it caught up to me I really didn't know how to eat sensibly. It was either starve or binge. Now I know how.
