Craig's new girlfriend is Mexican-American and he wants to cook her a healthy dinner. Plan a meal with an appetizer, main course, and dessert which contains 20%-35% of its calories from fat and is low in saturated and trans fats
The following is an example of a healthy Mexican-American dinner:
Appetizer: "no-fry" chips—Immerse several tortillas in warm water, drain quickly, cut into six to eight wedges, and place on a nonstick pan; bake in a 500-degree Fahrenheit oven for 3 minutes, flip, and continue to bake for another minute or two until golden brown. Serve with salsa.
Main course: corn tortilla filled with regular, unfried pinto beans mixed with chopped onion and topped with a sprinkle of shredded cheese and a generous portion of lettuce, salsa, a dollop of fat-free plain yogurt or fat-free sour cream, and a garnish of sliced avocado.
Dessert: one-half cup fresh fruit—banana, apple, pineapple, and mango.
