Mango Chicken Salad

I had a lot of romaine lettuce so a salad sounded like the best thing for dinner tonight!
Here is what I did....
First Take a Flour Tortilla (warmed up in Microwave) put it at the bottom of a dinner plate.
Add Cilantro Rice (Rice cooked in Chicken broth with Cilantro and once cooked add a little green enchilada sauce).
Cover Rice with Black or Pinto beans
Add Sliced Grilled Chicken (I marinated 3 chicken breast in water and South Western Chipotle Seasoning (Mrs. Dash)before I grilled it)
Cover with a lot of Romaine Lettuce , then add 2 spoon full of Mango Salsa and the Sorta-Salsa(previous post).
For the Dressing I used a packet of Fiesta Ranch and mixed it with a cup of Real Mayo and a cup of fat free milk (put in refrigerator at least 30 min before serving).

Verdict.... DELICIOUS!!!!!
The Kids ate it as a Burritos, the adult as a Salad...

For Lower calories I ate it like this
No tortillas, start with the rice (without the enchilada sauce), no beans, add 1 portion of chicken (size of your palm) and the rest... 2 tbsp of dressing should be enough...

Oh and this can be way time consuming!!! So if you can make both salsa the day before you'll serve it.
ENJOY!!!!!



With and without the dressing

Mango Salsa

Well it's been over a year since any of us has updated this blog!!!
Ok I'm not promising anything here but I will make an effort to at least take pictures when I cook!!!
I now get most of my fruit and vegetables from Bountifulbaskets.org
It is SO great to have fresh healthy food for Cheap!!!
The thing is that I never know what I'm going to get!!!
This last week I had 7 mangoes so I found a video of a chef making this salsa... I had no idea how much of what he put in so I winged it...
I think it is like the Costa Vida Mango Salsa.... but I've never actually tried it there so Who knows... Make it and you'll find out!!!



SO here we go
Ingredients:
4 Mangoes
1/4 C of Fresh Cilantro
1 Tbsp of Lime juice (or 1 fresh squeezed lime)
2 minced clove of garlic
Fresh green Jalapeno to taste... (I used a 4oz can)
1/4 C finely chopped red onion
1/4 C honey

Cut the peeled mango in small pieces, add everything else together.
Serve over salad :)
