We really enjoyed this meal. We ended up cooking the lamb in the oven on 450 until it reached 425 (about 15 minutes) we turned on the broiler at the end to add some crisp. The orzo was good but was a little dry without any sauce but for an 8 point meal, we were totally satisfied! We found the lamb chops at Sam's for $10.99lb instead of the $19.99 central market was charging.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
