The key to this dish is about moisture control. The first time I did it, it started out as a roasted zucchini dish and it required too much oil to get the texture I wanted. The second time, I used less oil but it put off too much water. That’s why it’s now a “pan casserole” whatever the hell that means.

Simple, reliable Lentils with Ham
I like to serve mine over cauliflower rice if I’m dieting. If I’m not, I like to serve over real rice with a side of cornbread. That reminds me. I really need to post some cornbread recipes. I have three. Regardless of what you serve them with, I tend to like to garnish mine with fresh, finely chopped raw tomatoes and onion.
Cheers.

Turkey Italian Sausage Stuffed Bell Peppers
Oh. In the photo, there is actually some nasty ass low fat Italian cheese blend on top. Don’t do that. It’s not worth it. Rather than melt well, it just turns into some kind of vaguely cheese flavored polymer. Unless you’re into vaguely cheese flavored polymers, then go for it, but just know the calories will increase.

Fugly Vegetable Curry
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.
