Incredible! 5.0/5

I found this recipe online after enjoying the soup at Bahama Breeze and it's a great copy. Serve with low fat/fat free sour cream, add chicken for protein, or enjoy as is. Very versatile and yummy for fans of black beans.

Super easy crock pot recipe...less than 5 minutes of prep time. This is a healthy recipe, other than the sodium. You can decrease that by using low-sodium taco seasoning.

My family loves my enchiladas. They are easy to make. If you aren't counting calories or carbs, you could use regular tortillas. Serve refried beans or caesar salad to make a complete meal.

The heat on this dish can be adjusted by the amount of chipotle chilies added. I used one and it was just about perfect but if you are into spicier foods, go ahead and add up to three!

You can chop the chicken and wrap this up in a whole wheat tortilla or serve it with a black bean and corn salad.

ok- the mexican beef and rice was too high in calories for some- so I made it over- for about 1/2 the calories- removed the oil, added add'l 1/4 cup of ff cheese, and a larger jar of salsa kept this from getting too dry.

Love Chipotle food? I modeled this recipe off my favorite burrito bowl from Chipotle (Less rice, more bean, all four salsas and guac.) The recipe sounds complex because there are lots of parts, but it is pretty easy to throw together in 20 minutes. Great for larger groups, too.

Western Hidalgo, Mexico known for its excellent cuisine. I stayed at a superbly elegant hacienda adjacent to El Chico Natural Park, from where I obsconded with this dish, before going on to visit the Tula archaeological site, one of ancient Mexico’s most important ceremonial centers. At the ruins you’ll see figures, called atlantes,15-foot sculptures which are considered important symbols of the state of Hidalgo.

If you want a pretty health-conscious snack or side dish, pair with multigrain tortilla chips. Remember, you control how spicy it gets. Use no spicy chili peppers or get it as hot at as you want. I find serranos to cater my taste, but jalapenos, green or red chiles, or anything fresh will do!
