Today I wanted to share I nice recipe with you.
Taco Salad. If you love Mexican or you have never tried it before this is sure to fill an empty stomach and taste just great.
Fast food taco salads are considered one of the highest fat, highest calorie choices at Mexican fast food restaurants. Ours is a wonderful alternative.
Grate the cheese and add to the salad. Warm the beans if you like and add a little ground chicken, turkey or crumbled tempeh. Even though the carbohydrate content of this salad seems high, it has a very low glycemic index. The beans are also a rich source of folic acid and contribute to the high fibre content.
Servings: 2
Here's what you need...
* 4 cups lettuce, torn into pieces
* 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
* 1/2 cup chopped green onions
* 1 small cucumber, peeled and chopped
* 1 cup pinto beans, drained of juice
* 2 oz baked tortilla chips, broken into pieces
* 1/4 cup salsa
1. In a salad bowl, mix together the vegetables, pinto beans and tortilla chips. Add the salsa and stir gently to blend.
