This is another one of the oldie but goodie Weight Watcher recipes from the "most expensive cookbook on the planet." Built around a cooking technique call sopa seca or "dry soup," vermicelli is cooked right in the pot along with tomatoes and other ingredients. By the time the pasta is cooked, the liquid has been absorbed and the flavors have melded.Again, the original recipe had some weird portions in it to make it fit in the WW exchanges. I've simplified the recipe which originally called for ground beef. I don't eat of lot of beef but I've very fond of ground turkey and it works great in this recipe. Flats of ground turkey come in 20 oz. portions so half the package is perfect. I've also just used a whole one-pound tube of frozen ground turkey (Jennie O brand) with equal success.I found these cute little 7 oz bags of cut pasta in the Latin Foods aisle of my local grocery store, too. Open the bag and boom! Done, easy! Now that I'm relaxed about portions I realize an extra ounce of pasta split between four servings is not a big deal.Be sure to use a big, deep skillet or dutch oven for this recipe. It makes four hearty servings but requires a lot of room to stir. What Course Is Skillet Vermicelli with Meat Sauce?Skillet Vermicelli with Meat Sauce is for Dinner.
