Chef Tip:
For a vegetarian version, 2 cups of your favorite cooked grain can be substituted for the ground meat. Add all ingredients to the saucepot at once, and heat to a simmer over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 10 minutes. Chickpeas or cannellini beans, and any canned diced tomatoes (up to 15.5 ounces) can be used in this recipe.

Dietitian’s Dish:
