BERRY CHEESECAKE SALAD – WEIGHT WATCHERS Recipes

When fresh berries are at their peak make this berry cheesecake salad. It’s light and refreshing and perfect for a Summer holiday like the 4th of July, Memorial Day, or Labor Day.

I’ve been eyeballing this Berry Cheesecake Salad recipe on Pinterest ever since last Summer and thought I’d make it more Weight Watcher friendly. I replaced the powdered sugar, cream cheese, and heavy cream with just a package of instant pudding mix (the cheesecake flavored kind) and a container of fat free cool whip. For a little extra zing, I added in some lemon extract.  You will want to eat this whole entire salad by yourself. One serving of the berry cheesecake salad is 3 smart points.
