eats that feel like cheats |
oil-less, butter-less, low-calorie, and delicious! home cooking that makes even the fanciest take-out look bad |
One of many common mexican dishes that I had no appreciation for as a child but found myself craving weeks ago. After a visit to my bestie's home in which she loaded her plate with this and a beautiful side of cumin-spiced refried beans, I knew I had to give this dish a shot. Glad I did since this is so easy and quick to make-it makes the best use of the usual round-up of mexican spices. It's customizable too-usually made with steak only, you can substitute for your favorite meat/protein (I added the shrimp because who doesn't love grilled shrimp?) as well as substitute the peppers for your favorite kind (my best friend uses spicy red jalapenos for extra kick, I'd rather use sweet red bell because of that beautiful flavor once it's roasted.) By weighing and portioning off the meat/protein from the start, you can choose to make this a side (make the meat to veggie ratio off-kilter and eat only about 1oz of meat) so it's under 100 calories or tip the scale and eat a higher portion to make it a full meal, complete with beans and rice. Either way, you really can't go wrong!
