I was REALLY REALLY craving my meixcna food today. So I came up with a recipie hoping to crave it.

Browned 16oz 85/15 of ground turkey
Added 1/2 packet of taco sauce with water

Got 2 cups of spinach and sprinkled 1/3 cup Italian (4 blend) cheese over the top
Mixed in 4 tbsp Pace chunky salsa
And measured out 6 oz of the ground turkey mixture....

It was delicous and definately filled me up and cured my craving.

510 calories.... A whole lot better than my usual 1300 calorie mexican burrito :happy:

    Way to be creative. I like to mix brown rice (about a cup) , salsa (about 1/4cup), cheese (1/4 to 1/2 ounce), lettuce ( about 75 to 100 grams of iceberg or romaine), black beans (1/2 or 1 cup), and some plain yogurt or a little sour cream ( 1 tbsp). Pretty delish! Depending on the amounts its in the area of 500 calories.
