Going Out for Mexican Food?

It doesn't mean you have to feel stuffed with guilt when you leave the restaurant!

  • Keep these lower fat, lower cholesterol suggestions in mind when ordering:
    Chicken, beef, or shrimp fajitas, with black beans or salad on the side instead of rice
  • Carne asada — steak with onions and peppers
  • Shrimp diablo — this dish is grilled with garlic butter, so ask them to go easy on that
  • Grilled fish tacos, with one corn tortilla rather than two
  • Taco and tostada salads with chicken, beef, or shrimp for protein — don't eat the taco bowl

Enjoy!
