Of course, you will probably make more than one. I like this recipe because if you want one, you can make one and pop it into the toaster oven. If you want to make a batch, then just multiply the recipe.

One of my most recent favorites in the freezer section is Healthy Choices Pumpkin Squash Ravioli. Since pre-prepared food tends to be a bit expensive and I wanted something I could make for the whole family, here is my version of their very delish dish :)

"Something bright and green always beats the winter blues. This rustic polenta, starring the first asparagus of the season, may provide the lift you need."

Adapted for less fat and fewer calories from BHG "Cooking Well Today;" original version = 273 calories (33 g carbs, 11 g protein, 11 g fat) per serving versus Alex's version = 190.7 calories (32.1 g carbs, 8.4 g protein, 5.0 g fat) per serving. This is accomplished soley through the substitution of cheeses (fat free mozzarella for parmesan) and the omission/substitution of olive oil (olive oil flavored Pam is used instead and I've found does not affect the taste or texture at all!). Enjoy eating and living well!
