Introduction
This is a quick fix for dinner: hearty & truly tasty. I suggest 2 servings (1 cup) atop whole wheat pasta (approx. 28g/1 oz = 0.5 c. cooked pasta).Serve with a side salad of naked greens with low-cal balsamic dressing.
Finally...
Cleanse the palate and take away the desire for more pasta with cantaloupe - a 170 gram (~1/8 of a melon) does the trick for only 60 calories! and no one leaves the table hungry!
Bu the way, just one 1/2 cup serving of this pasta sauce provides two full servings of vegetables and fruit! Woohoo! This is a quick fix for dinner: hearty & truly tasty. I suggest 2 servings (1 cup) atop whole wheat pasta (approx. 28g/1 oz = 0.5 c. cooked pasta).

Ingredients
-
1 Green Bell Pepper, Chopped (approx 1.5 cup)
1 Yellow Onion, Diced
15 White Button Muchrooms (approx 255 grams)
1 Pkg Yves Veggie Ground Round Original (340 grams)
1 Can Hunts Thick & Rich Roasted Garlic & Herbs Pasta Sauce (680 ml / 2.869 cups)
Directions
Dice an onion. In a heated large skillet, add diced onions and let sizzle for 2 minutes on medium heat while they cook, chop mushrooms. Once they start to soften, add mushrooms.
The juice released from the onions & mushrooms carmelizes and sweetens the sauce and eliminates the need for any oils or fats.
Let the mushrooms steam up for a few minutes while you chop the green pepper. Stir the onion/mushroom mix.
Then, place the chopped pepper on top of the onion mix so that the peppers aren't touching the pan - this keeps them crispy & nutritious by just steaming them.
Crumble the package of Yves Veggie Ground Round into the mixture. Immediately, add the can of Hunts Thick & Rich Roasted Garlic & Herbs Pasta Sauce. Heat & Serve.
Makes ten 1/2 cup servings at only 112 calories each!
