As many of you know, Cary and I have been on a diet for about three months now. He has lost 25 lbs—woo hoo! I have lost 9 lbs and think I am stuck at this weight, happily maintaining. We are still working on keeping it off and losing a pound or two here and there. I found this AWESOME website and just tried my first dish.
The Skinny Chicken Enchiladas were amazing! I am a foodie, I am picky especially about Mexican food and these were truly fantastic! One of the chilies I used had a lot of seeds (I diced them up). I used 2 T.+ because I like spice, but they were a little too spicy. If you have kids, I would use 1 T. or less. I used regular chili powder and may use corn tortillas in the future because I prefer them for enchiladas. Overall though, I give this an A+! To keep it on the healthy side, I paired this with a favorite stand-by in our house… This yummy Black Bean Salad—it is so fresh and flavorful! Enjoy!
Black Bean Salad
15 oz. can black beans 1 c. quartered cheery tomatoes
½ c. chopped red onion ¼ c. chopped celery
2 T. fresh lime juice 2 T chopped fresh cilantro
1 T. olive oil Salt & pepper to taste
Drain and rinse black beans. Combine with remaining ingredients and refrigerate at least two hours before serving.
