Mexican with a healthy twist. Easy and low fat! How can you beat it? This recipe I came up with myself as I became fustrated with trying to make the perfect Enchiladas that would be delicious, low fat and stay rolled up and not fall apart! Here is my solution and its perfection! You will not be disappointed. You can add organic chicken or blue grass fed beef to it too.1 Red bell pepper, cut in strips
1 Green bell pepper, cut in strips
1 cup diced onions, diced
1 large can of Enchilada Sauce
1 pacakge of corn tortillas
1 small can of sliced black olives
1 small bunch of fresh cilantro
1 can of black beans or 1 1/2 cups cooked
1 cup of shredded low fat Mexican cheese
(note: corn tortillas are not rolled in this recipe but put down as in layers) If you use all organic ingredients, you will increase the healthy radar! And, yes there is organic black beans, corn tortillas and enchilada sauce. Try Whole Foods Markets or Wild Oats Stores.
EASY Directions:
If you desire an organic version, buy each item as organic or from companies like Whole Food Markets or brands like Natures Promise from Stop and Shop or other organic brands sold in stores such as Shop Rite or Wegmans. Black beans can be soaked from raw beans. Chicken or beef can be purchased as organic chicken and/or blue grass fed beef also.
