Would you love to try some healthy Chicken Fajitas? Look no further! I’ve been following the Weight Watchers plan for some time and today I have a fantastic, simple and easy Weight Watchers Chicken recipe to share.

Fajita’s are super tasty and a great way to get your daily dose of protein. They are filling and help you feel fuller for longer. Packed with veg, this tasty and delicious sheet pan recipe is a real winner!

Trust me, this is one of my most popular recipes here at The Inspiration Edit and many people have told me they absolutely love it.

This fantastic chicken fajitas recipe is both colourful, full of zero point foods and has lot’s of goodness. In fact, this weight watchers Fajitas recipe is perfect for the Spring or Summer and can be cooked on a sheet pan, in the skillet pan or on the family bbq.

Weight Watchers Chicken Fajitas

You can enjoy these zero point chicken fajitas on a salad or add them to tortillas making them into a tasty 4 point wrap. These Chicken fajitas make a great Weight Watchers lunch box recipe. 

What to Serve With Your Weight Watchers Chicken Fajitas?

• Tortillas
• Sour Cream
• Guacamole

Chicken Fajitas can be an easy family recipe and you may wonder what to serve with this healthy chicken fajitas dish? Well there are a number of options, the most popular being Tortillas.

As this is a Weight Watchers friendly meal you will need to count any points when adding any side sauces but chicken fajitas do go very well with Sour Cream and Guacamole.

Low Fat Sour Cream With Weight Watchers Chicken Fajitas

You may want to find a low fat version of Sour Cream to make to help keep your points as low as possible. If you’re really busy and don’t have time to make your own sour cream then you might want to purchase the Weight Watchers Sour cream available in your local supermarket or a similar low fat sour cream that is easy to point up.

If you’re eating these as a family meal, you may want to have 2 Fajitas with a zero point side salad. Healthy Chicken Fajitas would go well with some lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes and other zero point salad items.

However if your going more for a buffet style meal or you’re looking of ideas of what to serve with fajitas at a party you may want to try making Grilled or Vegetable Stuffed Peppers or maybe some Zucchini Pizza Boats. I have a fantastic recipe for those that you may just love.

Chicken Fajitas Weight Watchers Points

This recipe without tortilla bread is only zero points. Add one tortilla and you will need to add 4 weight watchers points. 

The ingredients in this Weight Watchers Chicken Fajita recipe are very colourful. The more colour you add to you’re family meals the better for your health. Yellow, Red, Orange purple and green veg are full of nutrition and micronutrients.

Sometimes it can be easy to eat “anything” on the Weight Watchers plan, so long as you count the points. However the more nutrition you can find in your food the better it will be for your body and the more filling the meal with be.

Protein found in chicken is a zero point food on the UK Flex plan and the US Freestyle plan and when bulked out with healthy zero point vegetables these weight watchers fajitas will leave you feeling full and satisfied.

Tips for Following the Weight Watchers Freestyle Plan

I thought it would be great to share a few tips for following the Weight Watchers Freestyle plan.

• Measure and weigh all your food. This is super important to ensure your counting the food correctly and not getting your portion sizes wrong.

• Plan your meals when you can. Making a meal plan each week, especially for those days when you will be home and cooking can really help to make healthy choices easier especially when you’re tired at the end of the day and wondering what to make.

• Have some ready to eat low point snacks. You may feel hungry and need something to keep you going from time to time in between meals. What I’d recommend is having a box of low point treats which you can easily access and which will keep you on the straight and narrow, preventing slip ups and reaching for those foods which are not as good.

• Record Everything You Eat. It may sound simple but I find when I keep a physical record on my cell phone or in a diary it makes it so easy to keep on track and stick with the Weight Watchers plan I am following.

Whether your following Weight Watchers or simply looking for a tasty, delicious family meal then this is a great recipe to try. I really do hope you enjoy it and do let me know how it goes in the comments below.
