Veggie "Lasagna" Recipe (no noodles and only 2 WWPP!)

I was craving lasagna. . .only one problem, I'm on Weight Watchers and am trying to avoid high point dishes.  So what's a girl to do when you crave a certain flavor but need to get in your allotment of veggies and not too many high fat and calorie carbs?  I made veggie "lasagna" with all those lovely fresh veggies from my refrigerator!  How can you go wrong with such a big slice for only 2 Weight Watchers Points Plus????

Can I just say, OMG!  This was so delicious!

Veggie "Lasagna" Recipe

 prep time:  15 minutes ~ cook time:  1 hour

makes:  8 servings ~ Weight Watchers: 2 Points Plus

Ingredients:

1 medium sized purple eggplant
1 small head of fresh broccoli
1/2 head of fresh cauliflower
2 large carrots
1/2 pint of fresh baby bella mushrooms
5 spears of fresh asparagus
2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
1 - 24 oz. jar of light pasta sauce
2 cups fat free mozzarella
1/4 cup grated parmesan

Directions:

1.  Pour 1/3 jar of pasta sauce in the bottom of a 9" x 13" baking dish.

2.  Slice eggplant into thin slices along the length (long slices instead of small round ones)

3.  Slice broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, mushrooms and asparagus into thin slices.   (I also sliced the carrots into thin long strips like I did the eggplant.)

4.  Arrange one layer of eggplant slices (1/2 of the slices only) over the pasta sauce that is in the baking dish.

5.  Arrange/sprinkle half of the other vegetables over the eggplant slices. 

6.  Sprinkle with 1/2 of the parmesan and another 1/3 of the pasta sauce.

7.  Layer remaining eggplant slices and cover with remaining vegetables.

8.  Pour remaining pasta sauce evenly over the top of the veggies.

9.  Sprinkle remaining parmesan and the mozzarella over the top.

10.  Bake at 350 degrees covered with foil for 40 - 45 minutes.  Uncover dish and bake for an additional 15 - 20 minutes.  Dish is finished with the sauce is bubbly and the cheese begins to slightly brown on the top.

11.  Allow dish to rest 5 - 10 minutes after removing from oven.

12.  Cut into squares and serve along side of a chicken breast or some grilled fish. . . or just eat as your main dish like I did!

It was very saucy and oh, so delicious!

Italian Ranch Chicken and Vegetables Recipe

I have a ton of fresh veggies on hand right now so I've been trying to come up with recipes where I can use a large variety of them together.  This recipe combined 5 different vegetables in one dish!  The spices blended well together and the dish was very moist and tasty.

If you are concerned about the sodium content in the mixes, you can always substitute with homemade versions of both seasoning mixes.  I added no additional salt or seasonings to this dish and found it seasoned just to my liking!

Italian Ranch Chicken and Vegetables

prep time:  15 minutes ~ cook time:  4 hours/high -8 hours/low in crock pot

makes:  8 servings ~ Weight Watchers: 6 Points Plus

Ingredients:

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup roughly chopped carrots

1 cup roughly chopped asparagus (discard woody stems)

1 cup chopped broccoli

1 cup chopped cauliflower

1 small container of sliced fresh mushrooms

1 cup fat free chicken broth

1 envelope ranch dip mix

1 envelope Italian dressing mix

1/2 cup dry instant brown rice

Directions:

1.  Wash and cut chicken into smaller pieces (at least 8 pieces) and place in bottom of slow cooker.

2.  Wash and cut all vegetables and place them in slow cooker on top of chicken.

3.  Sprinkle both envelopes of seasoning mixes on top of vegetables.

4.  Pour chicken broth over entire dish.

5.  Set slow cooker for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low.  

6.  Thirty minutes to 1 hour prior to serving add the rice and 

gently stir to make sure it is covered by fluid.
