Can I just say that its weird not having pizza tonight?? But Hannah and I love having Mexican food anytime! I remembered that I still had chicken in the fridge left over from our baked orange chicken and decided to cook that up for me and Hannah. Tony got shrimp! I did a quick 15 minute marinade – juice from 1/2 lime, fresh chopped cilantro and taco seasoning.
Then I just grilled his on our cast iron griddle – only took a couple minutes!
Then I just mixed up taco seasoning with our chicken – it had been marinating in the orange chicken marinade, but after I added the taco seasoning that all we tasted.
So my dinner:
- 2 tostadas
- 3 ounces chicken
- 1/4 cup fat free refried beans (split between each tostada)
- 2 tablespoons fat free sour cream
- 1/2 ounce Mexican shredded cheese
- Taco bell mild taco sauce
- 1 ounce tortilla chips
- 1/4 cup fresh guacamole
- lime juice over tostadas
- Tabasco!
Don’t worry – I think we’ll have pizza tomorrow night!! Off to relax with Tony – hope everyone has a good night and I’ll see you in the morning!
Those shrimp look excellent (without all that cilantro nonsense 😉 )
