I haven’t hosted any sort of social get together in months! When Weight Watchers offered the opportunity for WW Ambassadors to host a Freestyle Fiesta, I gladly accepted!
On Tuesday morning, I hosted a Freestyle Fiesta Brunch for a few friends.
It was so fun to have a houseful of girl friends on a cold and dreary Ice/Snow Day!
You all know I love to play in the kitchen, but I will say that fixing food for a large crowd stresses me out. I can’t boil water and carry on a conversation. I can have 10 different things going on in the kitchen, but carrying on a conversation can NOT be one of those 10 things.
That being said my Crockpot Breakfast Casserole was not completely cooked and I realized it after I’d told every one to dig in.
My Enchilada recipe had great flavor, but I did not buy chopped frozen spinach, so the spinach needed to be cut with every bit and I found it annoying and I didn’t enjoy the dish as much as I was expecting to. eye roll
The Taco Soup, which was actually an after thought since I was hosting a Brunch, was a crowd favorite. lol. Go figure.
I almost forgot to take any pictures at all of the food, and the ones that I did take, aren’t that great!
What really matters most is that I had friends over and it felt great to do a little entertaining after months of not doing any hosting.
I think they all had a great time.
Thank you to Weight Watchers for being such a great company to work for and to represent through the Ambassador Program!
WW sent an entire box of decorations, cups, straws, napkins, grocery shopping bags for 11 guest, coasters, an apron for me and all sorts of goodies for hosting!
These 5 Smartpoints Flourless Brownies made with Black Beans from Skinnytaste were a huge hit!
Also from Skinnytaste was this Zero Smartpoints Turkey Chili Taco Soup and it seemed to be the crowd favorite!
It was great having everyone over!
Have a great day!

Lucy,
First, I love reading comments so you could never comment too much.
Second, I am SO happy that you made the brownies and the soup!! My brownies were very small. Maybe they looked big in the picture? They were not dry though and I was surprised at how yummy I thought a Black Bean Brownie was! I honestly thought the ingredients in that recipe were so weird! Ha Ha!
I loved that you had your own little Fiesta, however I certainly wish I were there to enjoy it with you!!
You are a sweetheart!!
Thanks Lucy! Sorry for the late reply to your comment. I always love hearing from you!! Loved the Fiesta and loved having my friends over!
I comment too much – you can tell me to stop it. BUT I tried the flour less brownies and they were delicious. My only complaint is that they were a bit flat. I must’ve done something wrong. Your’s look so moist and big mine were a little dry but flat. Also the Turkey Taco Soup was excellent. I had a fiesta all alone. LOL Darling daughter once again at her dad’s. I enjoyed it so thanks so much for the post.
It’s good to have friends over. Love all the pictures it looked like a lot of fun. I think I’ll have to recreate your fiesta.
