This low carb recipe was sent to me. It is a great Diabetic dish. Leave out the meat and you have a good vegetarian recipe. Ingredients:
4 -5 zucchini (enough to be able to cover the bottom of 8 x 8 cake pan and make two layers) |
1 lb ground turkey or 1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb ground beef |
garlic powder |
1 (16 ounce) container cottage cheese |
2 eggs, beaten |
1/4-1/2 cup parmesan cheese |
1 cup sliced mushrooms |
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste |
2 cups water |
italian seasoning |
1 1/2-2 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, lots of it |
Directions:
1. Brown ground meat with garlic powder, combine tomato paste, water and Italian seasonings; add to ground meat; stir and simmer together for 5 minutes.
2. Mix together cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan cheese, set aside.
