Cholesterol Reduction:
If you substitute low fat ricotta cheese
Ground turkey for red meat
low fat Mozzarella
And turkey sausage

In case anyone is interested, I saute my onions and peppers and
everything else, just about in a teaspoon of oil and 1/4 inch of water
and it works very well with much less fat.

I pre boil sausage and other meats that I use for pot roast and then
skim the fat before I season and cook.
