Description

Ingredients

• 1 pound your choice of ground protein (ground beef, chicken, turkey, lamb, or vegetable protein crumbles)
• 1 cup (Green container) diced fresh tomatoes
• 4 cups (Green container) diced or shredded vegetables of your choice (my favorites are zucchini, peppers, carrots, asparagus tips)
• Salt, Pepper and spices to taste

Directions

• Brown the ground protein
• While it cooks, dice the tomatoes (enough to fill a GREEN container) and four more GREEN containers of your vegetables and set aside
• Drain off any fat off of your protein and put into a bowl
• Use your RED container (or a ⅔ cup measure), measure five portions of protein back into your skillet or pan
• Add the vegetables (but not the tomatoes, yet)
• Cook until just softened
• Add the tomatoes
• Cover and cook until the vegetables are done to your liking and the tomatoes have cooked down to make a sauce (about five to ten minutes)
• Serve or measure into equal portions and store for your lunch or dinner for the week
