I made these tacos tonight and they were AMAZING!! I love mexican food, so I'm constantly on the hunt for healthy ways to eat it. Here's the recipe and both tacos (and a small salad of the extra fixins that don't fit into the tortillas) is only 383 calories and 31 g of protein!! SCORE:smile:
2 corn tortillas (just heated in the micro for 20 seconds)
1/2 c reduced sodium black beans, rinsed
1/2 c seasoned ground turkey
1 slice of tomato, chopped
1 slice of onion, chopped
1/2 jalapeno (I love spicy!)
2 TBS hot chunky salsa
a few drops of HOT SAUCE
Yummy and so filling! Try em soon!

    Same here! Mexican is one of my favs but I like it more mild-medium heat. Still I will definalty use this recipe and leave out the hotness. Yummy! Thanks for posting!

    try putting that on a cup of shredded lettuce and add just a little cheese. remove the corn tortillas. very filling, good fiber, a few carbs and lots of protein.

    my wife makes the kids tacos all the time and I just forego the tortillas/shells.

    I am going to start adding the black beans to our recipe
