Puttin’ the “CAN” in MEXICAN!!!

Salito Trainito

(A.K.A. SuterGirl’s FUEL PLAN FRIENDLY Mexican Salad)

I absolutely LOVE Mexican food, but it definitely takes some “Recipivity” to keep my “Mexican Fix” to the Low-Cal, Fuel Plan standards. KWIM? (Know What I Mean?)

I was up to the challenge – so here tis….

Los Ingredientos

Mixed Greens, or whatever type of lettuce you like….Romaine, Bibb….etc.

Salsa (At LEAST Medium Heat, if you’re in the SUTTER Kitchen!)

Mini Yellow, Red, and Orange Bell Peppers

5.25oz. Ground Turkey (All White Meat)

Red Onion

Lime (about 1/4 of it)

Spices: Coarse Salt, Coarse Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, Cumin (all to taste)

Preparationes

Go ahead and plate the mix greens. Then cut the mini bell peppers in half (length wise) and de-seed them. I fan the sliced peppers around the border of the plate. ;o)

Dice the red onion.

Spray a saute pan with non-stick / no calorie cooking spray, heat the pan and add the onion to it. Once the onion has sweated, add the ground turkey stir around to cook turkey into “crumbles” – not one big blob. Add the spices, stirring them thoroughly into the ground turkey and onion mix.

Once the ground turkey is completely cooked (no signs of pink color), pour onto the plated mixed greens.

Top with the salsa and squeeze the 1/4 lime all over.

DELISCIOSO!!
