While very low calorie and quite tasty, this is just not an attractive dish.

Notes
You can see from the images this is not a pretty dish, but I swear, it's really not bad for diet food. Always the "for diet food" qualifier. Ugh.
Anyway, if you serve it with one piece of the diet naan, the whole thing makes a decent 193 calorie meal.
You'll probably have leftovers which, honestly make fairly decent, albeit weird taco filling.
