Introduction

I love this meal when we go to middle eastern restaurants but it always seems so oily. I wanted to make a version that focused on lots of fresh vegetables for bulk and wasn't oily. I think i retained the flavor of the original recipe but made this something you can do on a low fat or low calorie diet.
