JACKPOT CASSEROLE

  • 2 T I Can't Believe Lite
  • 2 Stalks of celery, chopped
  • 2 medium onions, chopped
  • 8 oz sliced mushrooms
  • 1 - 1.5 lb ground turkey
  • 4 oz sliced olives, green or black
  • 1/2 c cooked bulgur (or rice)
  • 8 oz tomato sauce
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
1. Preheat oven to 350*
2. Melt the margerine in a skillet over medium heat. Add the celery and onions and cook, stirring constantly, until almost tender. Add mushrooms, cook and stir until all the veggies are soft.
3. In a separate skillet, brown the meat, separating as you go. Pour off any accumulated drippings and discard.
4. Combine the celery mixture, turkey, olives, bulgur and tomato sauce in a 3- to 4-quart casserole. Add salt and pepper, and mix the whole thing well.
5. Cover and bake in the oven for one hour.

Makes 4 10-pt, or 6 7-point servings.

You can use cooked bulgur because it's half the points of rice, and turkey for the
lower points than beef. It's really quite tasty, and you could re-season it with garlic, onion powder or a host of other things.

Great recipe, with lots of healthy natural ingredients, with one exception.

Just curious ... why do you use margarine instead of real butter?

Come on in for a nice cup of coffee and a chat about my weight loss journey as well as all the healthy recipes I have found, including WW points and/or nutritional information if available. I am eating a vegetarian diet and concentrating on getting healthy and hopefully weight loss will follow. Thank to all my readers for their ongoing support.
