Looks good

Using the information on the products in my house.... one tablespoon of olive oil has 14 grams of fat. One cup of parmesan cheese has 29 grams of fat... so 3/4 of a cup is about 22 grams of fat. That is 36 grams of fat in the whole dish... so about 18 in a serving. ;)

This is delicious! I truly enjoyed this recipe. I made it again and served it over Spaghetti Squash. Even the children ate all of their vegetables and licked their plates clean. Together with a vegetarian meat sauce, everyone is happy.

This recipe is for my husband who only eats once a day. I complain but it does no good. This would work well for him because it has a lot of protein and high in calories and would taste good too and only makes 2 serving. If I ate it my rear would look like a volkswagon.

You could steam the vegetables first to aldente... Cut the olive oil and use about 1 or 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese and use low sodium chicken broth. Or spray pam on a cookie sheet and bake the leeks and veggies. That would cut the fat.

I make a veg dish similar and just a light sprinkling of Parmesan cheese works. I also steam the veggies separately then combine just don\'t over cook. Then sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley. We all don\'t want to weigh 300 pounds do we and die of heart attacks. Moderation in all thing.

Why is this dish so high in fat? I don\'t see anything in here incredibly high in fat but a bit of olive oil and some parmesan cheese?

I always loved pasta with vegetables, especially that I\'m Vegetarian & I live in a place that uses the Olive oil a lot instead of butter or margarine.

But I also wonder why is it so high in fat, I do not see any fatty ingredients
