Weight Watchers Oatmeal Raisin Muffins

Just 4 Points Per Serving

A good tip when you are on Weight Watchers is to have a few “go to” items for breakfast. I usually go back and forth between Fiber One cereal and oatmeal. Don’t get me wrong…there is the occasional breakfast taco thrown in there too. It’s starting to get a little warmer here and oatmeal is not as appealing to me as it was when it was cold. I like having oatmeal for breakfast though because it keeps me full longer and I can add fruit to it. So my solution to the warmer weather/ oatmeal dilemma is…..Oatmeal Raisin Muffins! These are just 4 points per serving, so I can have a couple of them along with some fresh fruit for a filling breakfast. I also like this because you make a dozen at a time, so you can just pop it in the microwave for a few seconds and have a warm breakfast throughout the week.
