Substituting Italian-seasoned ground turkey for the traditional sausage, and whole milk for the cream lightens this soup up a bit.
I'm noticing that the Jennie-O ground turkey is stupidly high in sodium. I believe buying plain ground turkey and then adding a salt-free Italian Seasoning blend to it would achieve similar results with less sodium
Would go great with a simple mixed green salad topped with a balsamic vinaigrette, or with a caprese salad.
This is how I make mostaccioli. It's not authentic, it doesn't have meat in it (but sometimes I add cannellini beans), and I fiddle with the sauce quite a bit. You can add meats, veggies, and/or use the sauce straight out of the jar. It's flexible. :)
I was skeptical that I would enjoy this unfried, unbreaded eggplant dish, but it's really really delicious! More of a casserole, really. The eggplant is roasted first to give it a nutty flavor, in lemon juice instead of oil for no added fat.
Great for a quick dinner, especially if you're cooking for one. Light, but filling with lots of flavor and great nutrition.
Delicious! If you have a food processor it should only take about 5 minutes to prepare. By hand, it takes around 30 minutes, but it's a great workout! :)
