My Favorite Mexican Food

blogs/blog-0205174001360696488.jpgblogentry-46516-13814461276131.gif

 

One of my favorite Mexican foods. I've been eating this stuff for about 4 weeks straight.

 

I got all the ingredients at Walmart. It cost about $4 for 2 days worth of meals (4 - 6 meals in my case). It's very filling and sticks with me.

 

1 lb of chicken breast.

1 pkg of Taco Bell Taco seasoning.

(I tried other name brand taco mixes and the store brands, Taco Bell tastes the best and is just as cheap. There is a Taco Bell chipolte version as well, but I liked the regular version the best. )

 

1 can of gebhardt refried beans w/fat.

(I tried the non-fat version and I like the fat version better. It only has 2grams of fat per serving.)

 

Salsa or Picante or Taco sauce to taste

1 pkg of your favorite shredded cheese.

 

 

I grill the chicken breast and run it through my food processor.

Mix the taco seasoning with about 1/2 cup of water and mix it thoroughly. I mix it in my protein shake shaker.

Toss the chicken into a pot or pan and add the taco seasoning.

Bring it up to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes.

 

Mix the chicken and beans in a bowl. Add some salsa if it's too thick for your taste.

 

 

Spoon some of the mixture into a bowl and top with cheese and salsa.

Wow awesome recipe! I will certainly try this once I can incorporate meat. I'm still on mushy food for another couple weeks.

Will have to copy this and try it. I like the fat free refried beans 1/4 cup spread on small plate, ground sirloin with seasonings, about an ounce, 2 T. non fat greek yogart, and a sprinkle of 2% Mexican cheese. Heat in micro. Adjust to your liking. I don't like greek yogart but can eat it this way to add protein.

I did something similar I used 1 pound of ground turkey+low sodium taco mix. 1/4 cup vegetarian refried beans + 2 Tblsp of the turkey meat topped with shredded mozzarella cheese and salsa. So good and delicious!

Reading this did a doozy on my taste buds. As I am 9 days in on liquid diet. I am sure I wont be able to make this for a long time but I am looking so forward to it. Thanks for sharing.
