I guess this is a hamburger helper type of meal but a couple things might make it worth the post.
- Those are about two ounces of radish greens sautéed with the rest of the dish. First time I've cooked with them. They are surprisingly nutritious, taste good in this kind of preparation, and in a sense they're free; I've been throwing them away all my life. Nutritional data and more information can be found here. I won't be tossing radish greens out anymore.
- I gave up processed meat the first of the year and assumed that was the end of my sausage days. This is fresh chorizo made in a chain produce/grocery/health food store called Sprouts which is becoming my favorite place. It is uncured and made with 85% lean ground chuck. You have to add fat to cook with it but I used one tablespoon of olive oil, pretty healthy I think.

I made this last night and I forgot to take pictures. I have one small bit left for my lunch today, so I'll try to fancy it up and snap a pic. I had a good bit of rotisserie chicken to use up, so I used that instead of ground beef. It was delicious and the family said it was a keeper. Definitely going to spice up my sauce a bit next time...I just used a jar of whatever I had on hand. Nice volume of food was very satisfying. Thank you!
ETA: My husband is Italian so I didn't dare call this lasagna. I called it "Cauliflower Chicken Ricotta Bake."2 -
