Who doesn't love Taco Bell? And honestly that is the one fast food restaurant that you really can get a filling meal and watch your calories, but more on that another time.
So today being Friday and a no meat day I decided today calls for a bean burrito and as always my boys love them too.
I used La Tortilla Factory's Smart & Delicious 100 calorie tortillas, if you haven't tried these you are missing out. We use them all the time especially for wraps.
I will only use Rosarita fat free refried beans mainly because the taste is better than generic, but also because they are lower in calories than most. To the beans I diced up some white onion and heated them up. I used 1/4 cup of the beans for just 50 calories. I then topped them with 1/2 oz. of reduced fat shredded cheddar and two taco bell mild sauce packets.
Grand total for this = 194 calories!
That is a savings of 176 calories, almost HALF the calories of the original and just as yummy! I often add a verde sauce packet too just for a little more zing. Happy Friday!
