Potato Tacos

I learned this one from Mom! You can keep it very low fat with soft warm corn tortillas, or fatten them up by heating tortillas (on one side only) on a very lightly sprayed skillet.

INGREDIENTS:

  • Potatoes of your choice
  • Salt-free (or low salt) tomato salsa
  • Corn tortillas
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Shredded cabbage, broccoli, carrots

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Peel and boil whole potatoes
  • Drain & add salsa to taste & mash with potato masher
  • Warm corn tortillas on hot skillet, as you fold them in half
  • Spread potato mixture inside warmed tortillas (like spreading peanut butter!)
  • Fill tacos with shredded veggies and sliced tomatoes
  • (optional: may add avocado on party days!)

Serve with sides of nonfat salt-free pinto beans and rice. Enjoy!

Baked Steak Fries

(LEFT: oil-free home baked! RIGHT: pre-fried, frozen, then oven baked!)

These are vegan! They are called steak fries only because they are cut thick.

INGREDIENTS:

  • Russet potatoes (that’s all!)

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil
  • Peel and slice potatoes into thick strips
  • Place potatoes into pot and bring water back up to boil
  • Time boiling for 4 minutes, then remove and drain potatoes
  • Place them on nonstick baking sheet and into hot oven
  • Bake for approximately 30+ minutes

COMPARE FAT CONTENT:

  • 15 grams fat in 3 oz DEEP FRIED
  • 3.5 grams fat in 3 oz OVEN BAKED PRE-FRIED (Smart & Final stores carry 2.5 grams in 3 oz)
  • 0.1 grams fat in 3 oz HOME BAKED !

Enjoy! 🙂
