Do you love Mexican food?  Mmmmm, I do.  Chips and salsa?  Yes, please.  Chicken Chimichanga?  With extra sour cream, please.  Tacos?  I’ll take three!  And don’t even get me started on my love for fajitas.

If you’re a fan of Mexican, be sure to share one of your favorite dishes in the comments. I’d love to hear!

Find this deliciousness at livelaughrowe.comMy husband and I ate a lot more Mexican when we lived in St. Louis.  We haven’t had a lot of it since we’ve moved, but it certainly hasn’t changed our love for the food.

I love to make tacos at home, but wanted to try something a little different.  I stumbled upon this WW Tostada Recipe and thought why not?  It was quite tasty.

The hubs enjoyed them too, which is always a win-win.  Black beans, corn, avocado and cilantro are some of my favorite ingredients.  This is a perfectly flavorful dish that will be kind to your diet.  Enjoy!

    Did you know that you can buy diced water chestnuts? A great addition to tuna salad or anywhere
    where you want some crunch and zero points. In my world we call this recipe Cowboy Caviar!

    I did not know water chestnuts were zero points, I will be adding them to my larder the time I go to the store.
