I am eating out this evening at a Mexican restaurant. What would be some good choices besides the refried beans?

I like carne asada--tender steak grilled with onions, peppers. Sooo good.

I also like bean burritos, chicken quesadillas.

Have fun!

Early out, the insides of chicken enchiladas went down real good. I would get extra sour cream to eat with them. And I would eat real slow. I stayed away from the tortillas for several months. They were my cause of great gassy distress for the first couple of months.

Contain LOTS of carbs--if you're going to eat them, atleast dip them in cheese

I still (when eatting mex) stick with the inside of either a bean burrito or a taco. The taco I ask for Xtra Sour cream and Xtra CHEESE!!

I used to make excuses why I cant Now I make reasons why I CAN!!

I remember having just a couple, with plenty of juicy stuff. Later nachos were a fave, and I left the nacho bones (naked chips). Treated them like pizza, just ate the toppings. Now, I eat everything. Today for lunch I had a chili rellino with cheese sauce, guac, beans and yes, rice. Too many chips and salsa too. But remember, I'm 2 and 1/2 years out. I still am careful with the flour tortillas. Love them but they don't love me.

So if I ever get to 2 and 1/2 years out I may be able to have corn tortillas or are you one of the lucky ones?
