"This is from a Weight Watchers cookbook called Simple Goodness. Use a pizza cutter to cut strips more easily. I freeze them in zip lock bags and heat in the microwave about 20 to 30 second."

  1. Pretty good. Reduced red pepper by half. Next time I would reduce paprika. Easy to make. Served with recipe#40882. Thank you for sharing.
     
  2. These are so easy to make and just taste great. I didn't change a thing about them. I am challenged on the twisting step but with some practiced I'll get that down. Thanks for sharing. Made for PAC Fall 2012
     
  3. I would have rated these 5 points, but i found them to be a little bland when I made them according to the directions. Next time I think I will add garlic salt and cajun seasoning. Despite my personal spice preferences, these are a good find. They are fairly simple to make and yield a good amount of twists. They would go well with soup in the winter and be a good sub for breadsticks with spaghetti. I will be making these again, thank you for sharing.
     
  4. Made these (a double batch) to have on my finger food counter for a group I'm hosting tonight, & hopefully there'll be enough for everyone if the 2 of us can just stop munching on them! In spite of all the prep steps, I found them easy to make & VERY ENJOYABLE TO EAT! Thanks for sharing this great recipe! [Made & reviewed in Potluck Tag]
     
  5. Easy and tasty. I made this exactly as written. The directions are well written and simple to follow. I'll be freezing most of this batch. Made for Theirs, Yours and Mine Photo Tag.

  1. Very easy to make and very tasty. I used black pepper instead of the red pepper - zero tolerance of anything hot and spicy - and added rosemary, sage and thyme for some added flavour. SO delicious. Having a couple of these with a salad will make days one is aiming to eat fewer calories so much easier. Thank you for sharing this recipe, TeresaS. Made for 1-2-3-4 Hit Wonders.
