I need a substitute for a Relief Society Casserole. A friend in our ward here just had a baby. I would love to take her a dinner, but can't seem to think of just the right thing. Every one-dish dinner I can think of/find has a gzillion calories, dozens of fat grams, and costs a fortune in cheese, cream cheese, mayo, or a combination of the above, with no nutritional value to speak of. My favorite to take is a rotisserie chicken, some tortillas, black beans, cheese, etc. But without a Costco here we don't have good rotisserie chickens, and even with a Costco it does end up costing about $10 for the meal, which is a little high for us right now. And it ends up being kind of a lot of stuff to clutter up a fridge.
Anyone have any ideas for cheap, healthy, easy-to-transport meals?
Tim and Becky, did you get any meals from family or friends when you had C-man? What were your favorites?

Katie just gave me a few great suggestions over the phone for one dish, veggie-rich meals: stir fry, pasta w/ broccoli or spinach or summer squash, and enchiladas with veggie toppings/fillings. Thanks, Katie!
