The best and worst of Mexican cuisine

Posted on Nov 3rd 2006 3:40AM by Martha Edwards

What's your favorite Mexican-style dish? For me it's tacos, with either a hard shell or a soft one, loaded up with seasoned chicken breast, fresh veggies, a bit of cheese and some spicy salsa. Turns out I'm making a healthy choice, according to this article which names the worst and best Mexican dishes. Sadly, quesadillas, another fave, made the worst list, as did anything with refried beans.

Here's a tip: to lower the calorie count in your favorite dish, try replacing the cheese, refried beans or full-fat sour cream with salsa, veggies or guacamole. Your hips will thank you.
