If I know I am going out to dinner at my favorite Italian restaurant, I want to have a really light lunch, and this Weight Watchers Friendly Broccoli Salad is just that. At 2 Freestyle points per serving, it is refreshing and filling and the delicious crunch really helps keep me satisfied. If you are looking for light lunch options, try this salad!
