Made my substitute for Mexican food tonight. If anyone's interested in the recipe, let me know. It's delicious. You bake potatoes (I use sweet potatoes) and scoop out the flesh. Then in a skillet you brown up chicken chorizo and mix it with sour cream, then mix that with the potatoes and shredded cheese, restuff the potatoes and put them back in the oven for about 15 minutes. You serve them with the accompaniments for tacos -- chopped tomato, chopped green onion, sliced avocado, salsa. This is not low calorie -- but much lower in calories and carbs than a typical Mexican dinner, plus you can use lactose free dairy, and using sweet potatoes instead of tortillas avoids wheat and/or corn. And we made green beans to go with this, so no rice or beans either. It's really a delicious treat. I do miss Mexican food a lot, but I imagine it would make me quite ill, so these potato tacos are the closest I've gotten to Mexican in more than a year. I shouldn't complain -- this dish is quite tasty!
