My Story

My name is Angel. I am on a journey to getting healthy; losing weight through exercise and good nutrition. I had a mental breakdown on July 20, 2010 because I love to be in the kitchen! I love the way food makes people feel. I love baking and decorating! This new way of life was keeping me OUT of the kitchen. My trainer suggested getting in the kitchen and being creative to find healthy ways to cook YUMMY food! I could share it with people who also need or want yummy food that is healthy, or healthier. So here I am and I hope that you can enjoy some of my YUMMY food!

Tacos Healthier

2 corn tortillas
1 oz. cheese shredded
1 Roma tomato
Lettuce chopped
 4 oz. Ground Turkey Breast
salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, cumin to taste
Cooking Spray

Ok, nothing fancy here; just a good tip. Spray a cooking pan with cooking spray and let it heat up. Then put a tortilla in and crisp it do desired crispness. Flip tortilla as needed. Brown and season turkey. Fill tortillas with ground turkey breast, tomatoes, and cheese. I use the lettuce on my plate to have a mini taco salad afterward with the stuffing that fell out of the taco (no more tortilla though).

    • Saturated Fat - 6.5g
If you want to leave off the cheese, the nutritional values would be less. The cheese is 120 calories, 7g protein, 9g fat, 6g sat. fat.  Tonight I added up all of my daily values and found that I needed more calories and fat so I was able to have some cheese. Yum!
