LOW CALORIE LAMB TAGINE WITH PRUNES
Wow this lamb tagine with dried fruits is to die for! You might think how on earth can this be low calorie ? Well the key is actually simply to remove as much excess fat as possible from the lamb meat and to replace the usual while almonds by almonds flakes.I served it with bulgur but you can have it with couscous or bread as well!
