Old El Paso Recipes

A favourite snack!

A standard weekend meal. I LOVE this dinner with Milk, and Apples (maybe you would too). This recipe calls for lean beef (actually the beef i use is a little leaner than indicated but it works really well with ground lean chicken or turkey, the taco seasoning masks the taste anyway, also plain yogurt instead of sour cream works)

Recipe from Old El Paso canned sauce.

115 g per serving

Made with ground Turkey Breast. This recipe does not include cheese or extra salsa or even the lettuce and tomato, sour cream and guacamole. Account for additional nutrition separately.

This was something the DH fell in love with on last shopping trip- turned out to be an expensive way to make my homeade Encilada Casserole! So I revised it for a lower Carb Diet.

Makes about 8 2/3-cup servings of filling in 1 8" flour tortilla

The best Chili ever! And its vegetarian! If you don't want vegetarian just substitute the MorningStar Crumbles for 1 pd of cooked ground beef

This is a recipe from the back of an El Paso box. Not a goodie for the diet! I'd appreciate ideas on how to make this lower calorie.

Approx. 8 servings- 2 tacos per serving (use 2 Taco Dinner Kits to yield enough shells).
1 1/3 tbsp taco sauce per serving
2 1/2 tsp seasoning mix per serving

this item was discontinued in 2008 but it is just so good and so few calories that I looked for a copycat recipe.

I prefer this over Tartar Sauce and less calories!!

You can lower the calories more with Lite Ranch dressing.

Information is per 1 Taco with Cheese, Lettuce, Taco Sauce, and Ground Chicken in an Old El Paso Stand and Stuff Shell

Use 1% cottage cheese instead of sour cream for condiment

The Beef Enchilada recipe from the Old El Paso Mild Enchilada Sauce can, with some of my own additions.

These are the best chicken enchiladas I have ever tasted!

This is the recipe off the can of Old El Paso Mild Green Chile Enchilada Sauce. I have substituted lighter versions of ingredients to make it a little more diet friendly.
