Applennes has a new points Weight Watchers points menu that's really quite good. I had the citrus chicken salad tonite (5 points).

Originally Posted By califtink We have only been to our local Applebees once since they began the WW menu, but I had the Sizzling Chicken Skillet.

My husband suggested we order one of each dessert to go, so I had one that night and one the next night and I really liked the Berry Lemon Cheesecake, although they should maybe call it Lemon cheesecake mousse with berries or something else. I am a lemon freak , and I thought it was very good. I will order it every time I go. The other dessert, the Chocolate Raspberry Layer Cake, was pretty good also, but kind of small. I know- what do I expect for 4 points? But if I'm going to have cake, I really want CAKE! I am thrilled that they have the WW items on the menu, and plan to try some of the others.
