    Recipe Introduction


    "From member clearfam: I borrowed the idea of using zucchini as a substitute for pasta from my previous Atkins days and came up with a meat sauce recipe that fits this program to create this delicious main dish."

    List of Ingredients




    * 1/2 lb lean ground beef or 1 lb ground turkey
    * 1 medium onion, chopped
    * 1 tbsp minced garlic
    * 1/4 cup chopped bell pepper (optional)
    * 1 tsp ground black pepper
    * 1 tsp oregano (optional)
    * 1-1/2 tsp Mrs. Dash salt-free Garlic & Herbs seasoning
    * 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
    * 3 small cans No-Salt-Added tomato sauce
    * 1/2 cup water
    * 2 medium-large zucchini, skin peeled off and discarded

    Recipe



    Brown the first seven ingredients in a non-stick skillet. Add mushrooms, tomato sauce and water. stir well. Simmer on low for about five minutes. Use a vegetable peeler or potato peeler to make thin strips out of the zucchini (discard seeds). These will resemble pasta. Add the zucchini strips to the meat sauce and transfer everything into a casserole baking dish. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
