“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.” |
| Pearl Buck (1892-1973) American Nobel Prize winning author. |
I have a great diet. You're allowed to eat anything you want, but you must eat it with naked fat people. |

Food Tip |
In a large nonstick skillet, cook the beef, onions, green and red peppers
and garlic over medium heat about 5 minutes or until the beef is browned
and the vegetables are tender, stirring frequently. Stir in the chili
powder and cumin and cook for 1 minute. Add the salsa and tomatoes. Bring
to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 4 to 5
minutes or until the liquid reduces slightly, stirring occasionally.
To serve, spoon some of the beef mixture just below the center on each of
the tortillas. Fold the bottom edge of each tortilla over the filling,
then fold in the sides and roll up to enclose the filling.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
Slimming strategy: For an easy, low-fat Mexican topping, stir a small
amount of chili powder or cumin, or chopped cucumbers, green onions or your
favorite fresh vegetable, into nonfat sour cream or plain yogurt. Or top
your entree with salsa; 2 tablespoons of a low-fat brand contains only
about 8 calories and no fat.
Comments: Not only is this recipe fast and tasty, it is lower in fat and
calories than the traditional fajita recipes.
