Stole this one off Allrecipes.com, but made some adjustments. Easily doubles, just freeze extras and pop in the toaster for a quick breakfast.
This is a delicious whole grain entree. There's no reason to add tofu or meat because the pasta is high in soy protein. This dish is low fat and cholesterol and high fiber. It is significant source of iron and calcium and a good source of vitamins A and C.
Option: Top casserole with thin layer of grated romano strips of sweet red and yellow peppers. Feta cheese also makes a great addition to this dish.
This entree contains under 506 mg of sodium per serving as written. For even healthier options, replace the cream of mushroom soup with low sodium, reduced sodium or reduced fat varieties. The hot pepper sauce may be replaced with unsalted chili powder.
This is just a little recipe I improvised using ingredients I love. I like it and hope you do, too. Each serving is about 1.5 Cups and you get something low in saturated fat, with protein, fiber & lots of vitamin C! Not bad....
This Chili is loaded with a variety of vegetable that harmonize well with the zesty seasonings. For a change of pace, serve it over freshly cooked couscous or quinoa.
I saw a woman who lost over 100 lbs who said she "lived" on a cottage cheese & bean recipe similar to this. It's easy to make a few different portions ahead and take for a healthy, filling lunch.
My husband, who fears all things vegetable admitted that this wasn't bad. This makes enough for a crowd; or lots of leftovers for quick meals. Serve with warm cornbread.
