Introduction

I found this recipe on FoodNetwork - it's tastey and very filling. I use Ole X-treme Wellness brand High Fiber-Low Cab brand tortillas which helps keep calories within an acceptably low range, and due to the high fiber content of the torillas, the net carbs are very low. Being a diabetic, high fiber and low carb intake is very important in blood sugar management. I found this recipe on FoodNetwork - it's tastey and very filling.
