Thanks to Heather's Dish for this delicious and easy risotto recipe. Heather made hers with asparagus and peas...I made mine with green beans and carrots...switch it up to whatever you have on hand, it will still be delicious!
Add or remove your favorite veggies in this very versatile and delicious HEALTHY lasagna.

These are a specialty of northern Italy. Instead of a dough that you roll out, you drop them from a spoon. This means you just add enough flour to keep the gnocchi from falling apart in the water... really reduces the carb and calorie count! (you can add the calories back in by serving it with a sage brown butter sauce)

Adapted from Alton Brown's recipe, just substituting some of the eggs with egg whites. For an even lower cal version, use egg beaters and low-fat ham. (I don't bother)
