"Point Value 5. They claim "Made low-fat without skimping on flavor." I haven't tried yet but wanted to save. If you try, let me know what you think. Would adding capers increase the points?"

I liked it but the rest of the family thought it was very tart. It might just be that I like the lemon flavor more than they do. If you don't like a strong lemon taste, don't make it. I followed recipe but used more veal and dried parsley flakes. I have no idea about the calories of capers and I didn't add them. Thanks for posting.

Can you substitute another type of meat? The recipe sounds good but Veal is baby cow that is kept in a small box where it cannot stand so that the meat becomes softer. I cannot bring myself to eat that. I would like to try it with another meat that is comparable in calories but I am not sure what kind to use. Maybe chicken or regular lean ground sirloin?
