Old El Paso Carb Advantage Nacho Cheese Flavored Taco Shells

Cheesy 45-calorie taco shells with a mere 3.5g net carbs and 1 WW Point® for one?! Sign us up! Our OEP pals have added a crunchy nacho flavor to their Carb Advantage lineup, and we’re welcoming the new shells with open mouths. They have flat bottoms, making them easier to stuff and less prone to spillage (which is truly the bane of taco night). Pick some up from Walmart or add a box to your Amazon cart.

Nescafé Espresso Coffee Concentrate

2 tbsp. (makes 12 oz): 30–60 calories, 0g total fat (0g sat. fat), 95–100mg sodium, 5–13g carbs, 0g fiber, 0–8g total sugars (0–8g added sugars), 2g protein
WW Points® value 1–3*
One of the easiest ways to enjoy good iced coffee at home without dealing with the brew-it-up then ice-it-down rigamarole is to use concentrates like these! You can score both the unsweetened Black and the flavored Sweet Vanilla on Amazon. Those two varieties plus a Sweet Caramel flavor can also be found at Kroger stores. (For more DIY coffee ingredients, check out some of Lisa’s top picks!)

Barilla Protein+ Pasta

2 oz. dry: 190 calories, 1g total fat (0g sat. fat), 0mg sodium, 38g carbs, 5g fiber, 2g total sugars (0g added sugars), 10g protein
WW Points® value 4*
Pasta is a major comfort food, and when we go for real noodles, we look for options that bring a little extra nutrition to the party. This line blends non-GMO lentils, chickpeas, and peas with semolina and durum wheat, barley, and spelt flours. The result is a good source of 100% plant-based protein and fiber! And it comes in SO many shapes: Spaghetti, Elbows, Penne, and beyond. Find it in stores nationwide, or order on Amazon.

Summer Finds You Didn't Know You Needed!

Carson BugView Magnifier and Quick-Release Bug Catching Tool

Let there be no confusion here: We're not so much interested in this tool's bug-magnifying properties as we are the "quick-release bug catching" part. This is a major upgrade from the time-honored tradition of trapping a bug under a glass then airlifting it out of your home (all while trying not to accidentally release it onto yourself in the process). Just grab the tool, snag the bug, and let it go somewhere more suitable—easy as that! Lisa's a big fan (of the tool, that is, not of bugs), and we think you will be too. Don't let the creepy-crawlies of summer get you down...
And that’s all we’ve got. ‘Til next time… Chew the right thing!
Chew on This...

It’s June 30th, which is also World Social Media Day. If you aren't following Lisa's new project, 1 Click Picks, go check it out over on Instagram!
