<br>
<br>GIRLS BITE OUT 
<br>
<br>Ready for some of our very best slow-cooker recipes? Mix up the ingredients, and let the kitchen clock do most of the work...
<br> 	
<br>Hawaiian Slow-Cooker Chicken
<br>1/4th of recipe (about 1 2/3 cups): 288 calories, 2g total fat (1g sat. fat),655mg sodium, 31g carbs, 4g fiber, 17.5g sugars, 35.5g protein -- PointsPlus® value 7* --SmartPoints® value 3* 
<br>
<br>Get a little aloha in your everyday routine with a big batch of this fruity chicken dish. Is it just us, or is everything more fun with pineapple? (OK, maybe not housework. The pineapple just sits there.)
<br> 
<br> 	
<br>Slow-Cooker Carnitas Tacos
<br>1/6th of recipe (2 tacos): 284 calories, 7g total fat (1.5g sat. fat), 250mg sodium, 29.5g carbs, 3g fiber, 5g sugars, 25.5g protein --PointsPlus® value 7* --SmartPoints® value 6*
<br>
<br>Pork gets a bad rap as a fatty meat, but our carnitas feature the perfect blend of lean and rich cuts. And thanks to the tasty marinade, the meat is SO juicy. Yummm...
<br>
<br> 	
<br>Pump-Up-the-Jam Cocktail Weenies
<br>1/14th of recipe (3 cocktail weenies with sauce): 88 calories, 1g total fat (0g sat. fat), 692mg sodium, 14.5g carbs, 0g fiber, 8.5g sugars, 5.5g protein -- PointsPlus® value 2* -- SmartPoints® value 3* 
<br>
<br>Know someone who always brings sweetly sauced cocktail weenies to the party? Well, tell Aunt Betsey to step back -- you'll be putting together this low-calorie alternative, with sugar-slashed jam and low-fat franks. (Or you could just send Aunt Bets the recipe...)
<br>
<br> 	
<br>Gooey Nacho Dip
<br>1/10th of recipe (about 1/2 cup plus toppings): 153 calories, 4.5g total fat (2g sat. fat), 411mg sodium, 13.5g carbs, 3.5g fiber, 3.5g sugars, 13.5g protein -- PointsPlus® value 4* --SmartPoints® value 4* 
<br>
<br>Speaking of party food, you've now got a savory Mexican-style dip on lock. It's full of beans, beef, veggies, cheese... basically, everything good. This is how we party, people!
<br>
<br> 	
<br>Ooey-Gooey Slow-Cooker Apple Goodness
<br>1/8th of recipe (about 1/2 cup): 137 calories, 1.5g total fat (1g sat. fat), 42mg sodium, 31g carbs, 3.5g fiber, 17g sugars, 1.5g protein --PointsPlus® value 4* --SmartPoints® value 3* 
<br>
<br>This recipe is appropriate pretty much any time of day. Morning? It's fruit and oats! Dessert? This stuff tastes like pie! Looking for a snack? See ya, ordinary apple slices...
<br>
<br> 	
<br>Outside-In Turkey Tamale Pie
<br>1/7th of recipe (1 cup): 230 calories, 7.5g total fat (2.5g sat. fat), 481mg sodium, 21g carbs, 3g fiber, 3g sugars, 19g protein -- PointsPlus® value 6* --SmartPoints® value 6* 
<br>
<br>This dish is totally yummy and requires significantly less hands-on prep time than assembling actual tamales. Exactly what your whole family will want on cold winter nights... and warm summer nights too!
<br>
<br> 	
<br>Glaze-of-Glory Candied Carrots
<br>1/7th of recipe (about 1 cup): 102 calories, 1.5g total fat (0.5g sat. fat), 286mg sodium, 22g carbs, 3g fiber, 13g sugars, 1.5g protein --PointsPlus® value 3* --SmartPoints® value 2* 
<br>
<br>Here's our slimmed-down spin on a sweet, sweet side dish. We invited onions and peppers to the party because, why not? We could snack on this all day long...
<br>
<br> 
<br>Yippee-Ki-Yay Spicy Southwest Chicken Chowder
<br>1/10th of recipe (about 1 cup): 163 calories, 1.5g total fat (0.5g sat. fat), 654mg sodium, 18.5g carbs, 3g fiber, 4.5g sugars, 18.5g protein --PointsPlus® value 4* -- SmartPoints® value 4* 
<br>
<br>Skip too-heavy chowders and their gloopy ways. This recipe is completely guilt-free, and you better believe it tastes terrific. Raise your hand if you like corn in your chowder! (Alright, put it down, people are beginning to stare.)
<br>
<br> 	
<br>HG-rific Taco Meat
<br>1/6th of recipe (about 2/3 cup): 152 calories, 4g total fat (1.5g sat. fat), 661mg sodium, 11g carbs, 2.5g fiber, 4g sugars, 18.5g protein --PointsPlus® value 4* --SmartPoints® value 2* 
<br>
<br>Having too many healthy taco options is not a thing. This time, we bulked up extra-lean ground beef with veggies, and seasoned it like classic taco crumbles. If Taco Tuesday is big in your household, this may be a new part of your Tuesday morning ritual.
<br> 
<br> 	
<br>Meatballs 'n Chili
<br>1/6th of recipe (4 meatballs with 3/4 cup chili): 227 calories, 4g total fat (1.5g sat. fat), 647mg sodium, 27g carbs, 7g fiber, 8.5g sugars, 21.5g protein -- PointsPlus® value 5* --SmartPoints® value 4* 
<br>
<br>Meatballs are great in chili... Who knew? Fun fact: This dish was inspired by the chili meatballs on the show Henry Danger, which was created by Mr. Hungry Girl himself!
