My family loves this meal & it's easy to make. It's a great tasting, low-fat dinner. Just add your favorite side dish or vegetable. This comes from the cookbook, 1,001 More Low-Fat Recipes , which has a ton of good recipes in it. You can alter the ingredients to add some of the fat back in if you don't prefer no-fat ingredients. Enjoy!
