Low Cal - Corn Tortillas
Welcome to my first low calorie, low rent starving good eating recipe! It covers all the bases with protein and vegetables and almost no fat. Take off the meat if you don’t want any and you will also be free of sodium from the taco spice.
Did you know that two corn tortillas are only 110 calories? You can buy these delights in packages of 72 for nearly nothing. You can live off of these for at least a month! A half a cup of refried beans is 110 calories, a tablespoon or two of taco meat is hardly much and one slice of low fat cheese is 60 calories. The lettuce, tomatoes, and raw mushrooms are FREE. Take your tortillas and broil them to get them crunchy – spray both sides with PAM – it’s a no calorie nonstick agent. Turn when browned.
Seriously, who is going to put ½ cup of beans on their tortillas? Spread it really, really thin, about 1 tablespoon. Then you take 1/2 tomato and slice it so it covers the beans on the tortilla. Put your RAW sliced mushrooms on top for bulk then just a few pieces of meat for show, ( you are trying to stay away from meat and lower you cholesterol) then slice up your cheese into small pieces and sprinkle on the top. Broil until browned and bubbly.
A pound of taco meat will last you weeks, just freeze it and take it out in small clumps to thaw for light dinners and lunches while you starve. You might even use a few tablespoons for an egg omelet.
So for less than or around 400 calories or so you can have TWO of them! And, not to forget my political edge for the post. Did you know that Idaho's Governor Otter aka "Butch" compares the state of California to an old gray mare and it needs to be shot and put down? Yep, you gotta read this. I think the Gov may have inserted a hoof into his mouth. Still funny, tho. :-)
Serve with a side of lettuce and one packet of leftover Taco Bell sauce for dressing from days of sorry ass eating. These actually taste pretty good because remember, you are starving! They also have a nice crunch and your teeth will sink in like a raging carnivore. Remember, nothing tastes better than SKINNY!“And I said, 'Listen, I was born in a family of nine kids in Caldwell, Idaho, and I have lived on farms and ranches and raised horses all my life,' ” Otter said. “And I would tell you without any equivocation whatsoever, that if California were my horse, I would shoot it. … I would put it down. Obviously easier said than done' “/Marty Trillhaase, Lewiston Tribune.More here
