I always thought eating healthy wouldn't be as enjoyable as eating whatever I wanted. This recipe proved me wrong; healthy ingredients taste wonderful and are just as mouthwatering without the extra calories. —Nicole Hackley, Culbertson, Montana

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 small green pepper, finely chopped
