Mexican Cuisine for the Nutritionally Minded Follow these tips to help in preparing a healthy spread of Mexican fare everyone is sure to enjoy. Fruits and vegetables—Emphasize the fruit and vegetables familiar to Mexican cuisine in your favorite dishes. Like green peppers, onions, tomatoes, limes, mangoes, etc. Meat—Use chicken instead of beef in recipes. When preparing tacos, you can sauté pieces of chicken, bell pepper and onion in a small amount of olive oil. Then season the meat with a fajita mix. This mixture supplies protein, vitamin C, beta-carotene and important bioflavinoids.  Beans—Use
low-fat or vegetarian refried beans and flour tortillas. The beans are an
excellent source of protein, carbohydrates and fiber.Cheeses—Use cheese, but use it sparingly. Because even though it's a great protein and calcium source, it's also high in fat and calories. Salsas—Salas are rich in phytochemicals, vitamins and minerals. Finish the meal with slices of fresh papayas and mangoes, which are rich in beta-carotene, vitamin A, calcium and potassium. |
