Mexican food is not often conducive to a healthy lifestyle but I love Mexican food so I have had to become creative. Fish tacos can be made healthy while remaining tasty. We get frozen tilapia from Costco and then cook it in a frying pan with water and seasoning (covered to keep it moist). Add finely chopped red peppers and/or cabbage. It will also need a special sauce. This can derail your low-fat ambitions so I use a mix of hot sauce and fat-free sourcream. Heat up some corn tortillas directly on a gas burner (no oil) and you have low fat fish tacos. Crack a brew (my personal home brew below) and the meal is complete. And the best news about beer is it's always fat free!

Try non-fat greek yogurt with hot sauce. I like it better than fat-free sour cream (which I think tastes funny). Also greek yogurt is really high in protein, and calcium (both of which I need).
