Default quick points question

Ummmm, probably yes on the fooling yourself. The veggies themselves are low in
points, unfortunately the fats that are dripping on them are not. I have no idea
how to calculate those points, but think there are about 3 points per tablespoon
of fat. This might be one of those guestimate type of things ... maybe 3 points
per serving of veggies, figuring that 1T of fat drippings may be adhearing to that
amount of veggies? You could possibly rinse the veggies after cooking, but also
imagine that would greatly effect the flavoring. grin

i have been making roasts (chicken or lamb) lately & i put the meat a wire
tray with cut up veggies in a tray beneath. the juices from the meat drip
down when it cooks & makes the veggies yummy. (is this traditional
roasting?).

am i fooling myself into thinking these veggies are low in points? how many
points would they have.....?
