1/4 cup water
2 tbsp tomato paste

1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 packet sugar substitute

6 each leeks, trimmed, cleaned

Leeks are a good source of iron and fiber. In this dish, they are prepared
Mediterranean-style with tomatoes and olives
1. Mix water, tomato paste, vinegar, salt, thyme, and sugar substitute; set
aside. Cut leeks into diagonal slices 1 1/2' wide. Cook leeks in lightly
salted boiling water 3 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain.

until lightly golden. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon. Reduce heat
to low. Add bake mix to skillet, mix well with oil in pan. Cook 3 minutes,
or until bake mix is lightly browned.

slightly. Return leeks to pan; add olives. Cover and cook 10 minutes,
until leeks are very tender. 4. Cool to room temperature before serving.
