I had some modifications: I omitted the celery (Yuck!) I omitted the
pepperoncini peppers (Yuck!) I doubled the artichoke hearts (Yum!!) I
used large mushrooms sliced, since there weren't small ones at the
store I had no Italian seasoning, so I used about a tablespoon of
oregano and a tablespoon of basil, and it worked out fine. I
increased the olive oil by about a teaspoon.
You could use a light cheese tortellini or a different type of
tortellini, or even bow-tie pasta or something, to lessen the fat
content. This tasted the best after it had marinated for about 2 days.

Food Tips of the Week
Some low carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Understand the food labels
Don't believe food labeling that boasts to be 'low carb' - check the nutritional information on the reverse of the package. Quite a few are only a little lower and in some cases still more than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are exactly the same.

Most low carbohydrate recipes are, you won't be surpised to learn, low in carbohydrates. We all need energy, and carbs are a highly efficient energy source. A reduced carb diet requires more care in controlling your energy levels, as any energy provided by protein and fat is far slower to act.
* Use soya flour or soya baking mix.
When you have to use flour for baked goods, repalce it with soya flour or a soy baking mix such as Atkins bake mix. In most cases, you may convert your favorite recipes that use conventional wheat flour to use these alternatives.
