Make Your Own Frozen Dinner: Spaghetti

Ingredients:
12 oz whole wheat pasta, cooked
1/2 onion, diced
4 small zucchini, chopped
9 soy meatballs (5/6 points of ground Italian seasoned soy crumbles works too)
1 lb heirloom tomatoes, chopped
Mrs. Dash table blend, to taste
garlic powder, to taste
1 can Amy's Chunk Tomato Bisque

Spray a saucepan with your choice of cooking spray. Cook onions and zucchini at medium-high with spices until onions soften. Add vegetarian meatballs and cook until meatballs start to crumble. Add tomato chunks and cook an additional minute or so. Lower heat to low and add soup. Let simmer for 10 minutes or so.

Add sauce to pasta and stir to blend. Let pasta soak up the additional juices and then separate into 6 containers (I vacuum seal my frozen dinners). These can be kept frozen and reheat well in the microwave. You can also eat them fresh :-)

6 points per gianormous serving!

Disclaimer:

I get asked by readers if I am being paid to push products. The simple answer is no. In fact, most of the products I write about are ones I have found and purchased during my trips to the grocery store or on the road. Occasionally, a company will send a sample my way and if I believe the product will serve a need for my readers and I would buy the product myself, then I will share it with you. Sometimes I will write to a company after reading about it, if I believe it will help us lead healthier lifestyles. But even then, if the product doesn't pass my scrutiny, it won't make the screen of Uncovering Food. You can trust that every product or recipe posted here has passed through my lips, and that I wouldn't blog about it if it wasn't worthy of you... my favorite readers.
