Steak Tortellini Alfredo

My husband and I agree that this is one of the best dishes I have ever made.  It is surprisingly low calorie and reminds me of Olive Garden!

 Prepare your favorite frozen tortellini according to package directions.

Prepare my Awesome Alfredo Sauce.

Top with steak or chicken breast. (optional)

I marinated venison steak cut into thin strips in the following:

1 tsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fat free balsamic dressing
1 tbsp Montreal Salt-free Steak seasoning
Salt and Pepper

Mix well and marinate for 15 mins.
Brown in a pan for 2-3 mins on each side.
Cover and simmer for 5-7 mins until cooked through.

Place tortellini on a plate. Top with steak. Cover with alfredo sauce. Sprinkle fresh chopped tomatoes and fat free mozzarella cheese on top.

Around 500 calories.

Last Night's Dinner

My husband and I love to go fishing. So, on Sunday we went and caught a bucket of Perch and Sunfish. We cleaned them and they became last night's dinner.

The fish was 330 calories with the bread crumbs.

I laid the fish out on a cookie sheet and topped it with the following:

1 tbsp dill
1 tbsp lemon pepper
1/2 c Panko bread crumbs
Salt and Pepper

Sprinkle evenly over fish.
Bake at 350 for 10-20 mins, depending on how thick your fish is.

I paired the fish with Green Giant Green Bean Cassarole and some Rice Select Royal Blend rice topped with Parkay spray butter and some Parmesan cheese.

The entire dinner was right around 600 calories.
