CBS Washington, D.C.: Healthy Cinco de Mayo

May 3, 2023

I’m on CBS Washington, D.C. with healthy Cinco de Mayo recipes and tips!

Instead of tortilla chips, serve savory, light and crispy Tajin pork rinds. Tajin is the best-selling chili lime seasoning that adds a tangy, mildly spicy flavor. These are high in protein and low in carbs.

For an entree, serve a taco salad! I use a mix of the kale, green leaf lettuce and cilantro, then add red onion,, corn, and cheese. Queso Fresco adds a special spark to this dish, it’s a soft, fresh cheese with a crumbly, creamy texture. For protein, I used using lamb which is flavor-forward, nutrient-rich source of protein that’s easy to prepare and super versatile. One 3-ounce serving fuels nearly half of your daily protein needs and provides essential nutrients including iron, zinc and vitamin B12.

Finally we have apple citrus sangria! Start with 4 sliced apples, then I use 3 packets each of the True Lemon and True Lime Crystallized Wedge Replacements which you can use wherever you use a lemon or lime wedge. Each packet equals one citrus wedge, has 0 calories or sugar and is made from real citrus and simple, clean, non-gmo ingredients. Muddle that together, then add ½ cup apple cider, 1 cup sparkling water and 1 bottle of red wine or red grape juice.
