HEAVENLY CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP



Heavenly Chicken Tortilla Soup image

This homemade Mexican-style chicken soup is so rich in intriguing flavors, vibrant in color, and full of tantalizing aromas, that fills your kitchen! It's usually made by combining chicken broth, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and fried tortillas. There are dozens of variations to add after that. I've added cooked chicken along with fiber-rich black beans and hominy for texture. The skinny for 1 cup, 180 calories and 4 grams of fat. This recipe's always a huge hit with everyone. It's so hearty, satisfying and can be served as the main course too!

OH BOY, SKINNY TACO NIGHT



Oh Boy, Skinny Taco Night image

Ok, I admit it, I love the original crunchy tacos at Taco Bell. Although small in size, they are quite high in fat and not very healthy due to the fatty beef, regular cheese and shredded iceberg lettuce. I decided to try and recreate the same taste but make it a whole lot skinnier. First off, I'm using very lean beef and draining the fat after browning it. I'm also using reduced-fat cheese and adding nutritious chopped tomatoes and romaine lettuce. The results... An absolutely delicious taco that I think taste even better than Taco Bell's! Each skinny taco has 126 calories and 4 grams of fat. With these numbers you can easily have two! Enjoy a taco night and let everyone create their own!

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound extra lean ground beef
1 cup onions, (diced)
1 package (1 ounce) Lawry's Taco Seasoning
⅔ cup water
1 box (12 shells) taco shells, (I used Mission white corn taco shells)
2 cups or more, shredded romaine lettuce, (as desired)
1½ cups or more, chopped tomatoes, (as desired)
¾ cup (3 oz.) reduced-fat cheddar cheese or lite Mexican blend

Steps:

  • In a large, nonstick pan or skillet, add beef, onions and garlic. Sauté together until meat is browned. Bring to sink, pour in a colander and drain off any excess fat. Add beef mixture back to pan.
  • Add taco seasoning, water and mix well. Bring to a boil, turn heat to simmer and cook for 5 minutes.
  • To make one taco-add about ¼ cup taco meat to the shell. Fill with as much lettuce and tomato you desire and top with 1 tablespoon cheese. The taco meat freezes great.
