EATING OUT

MEXICAN

BLACK OR PINTO BEANS

Both    kinds   are fibre   and protein powerhouses.    I   skip    the refried kind,   which   can

add extra   fat.

BURRITO BOWLS

Another good one. I swap out the usual white rice base for lettuce or brown rice.

BURRITOS

If  you go  for one of  these,  nix the rice.   It  doesn’t add flavour,    and the tortilla    has

enough  carbs   on  its own.

CHICKEN MOLE

Mole    sauce   is  made    with    chillies,   spices, seeds,  and chocolate,  so  it’s    delicious

and full    of  antioxidants.   Pile    on  the veggie  sides!

CHIPS AND GUACAMOLE

I love this appetizer! Avocados have healthy fats. Stick to two handfuls of chips.

FAJITAS

I   like    that    these   come    with    lots    of  peppers and onions. But don’t   feel    as  if  you

have    to  clean   your    plate:  Too-big portions    can drive   up  calories.   (Besides,   they

make    great   leftovers.)
