Which WW Program are these points for?
WW has definitely changed from 2020 to now. They went from three to one plan to multiple plans and back to one plan again. So in 2023, we have just plain old “POINTS.”
- Be sure to calculate the points value of the foods and recipes you eat in the app.
- Always add ingredients and serving sizes and don’t rely on the nutrition facts in the recipe.
- Accuracy will come from the information you input on the app.
You can reduce the points on this soup by removing the tortilla chips for the topping. You can also reduce them a bit by using a super low-fat ground beef.
Make sure to recalculate the points using the Weight Watchers online recipe creator (where I do all my calculations) to be sure you get the correct information. Making these two small changes should drop the points to 5 or less per serving though, as a reference point 🙂
Is this Crockpot cheeseburger soup hard to make?
Absolutely not! On the contrary it’s actually very easy to make. This recipe makes about 8 servings so you can easily make this meal for a big family or for meals throughout the week!
It’s as easy as browning your meat and veggies and whipping up the sauce, then it all goes into the Crockpot where the real magic happens…without any work on your end!

Notes
6 WW Points Per Serving of 3/4 Cup.
I think the evaporated milk needs to be slowly warmed before adding to crock pot. I followed directions as written and the whole pot of soup curdled and separated. Disappointed this time but will try again.
That looks so hearty and delicious! Adding it to my must-try recipes!
