I love stuffed everything… mushrooms, cabbage, peppers.. you name it… I’m a fan of stuffing it… LOL! BUT!!! a lot of the ingredients in traditional stuffed foods are no-no’s on the LDL plan… so I did a little change here and there, and think I came up with some tasty alternatives…
First, gather your “boats”… the things you want to stuff…
Either cut them in half and scoop out a little of the pulp or cut the top off, and stand it up… KEEP THE SCOOPED BITS…
Then saute up a chopped onion, 3 cloves chopped garlic, some green onion, the pulp of the veggie boat, some chopped mushrooms, a handful of grated Parmigiana or Romano cheese, a little water or chicken stock, salt, pepper and (if you allow yourself brown rice, use it…) otherwise leave it out, and a tiny bit (2 oz) of feta cheese crumbles (or not) and get it all cooked up and bubbly and yummy.
Sprinkle in about a tsp of cumin, and if you like things spicy, some cayenne or red pepper flakes, and stir it into the mixture until well blended.
Stuff the mixture into each vessel, and sprinkle a tiny bit of the grated low fat cheese on top… Bake in a baking dish at 400 for about 15 minutes or until the top gets crusty…
Enjoy!!!
