Baked Chicken Taquitos by Carolinaheartstrings

We love love love Mexican food at our house so when Alessa and I decided to feature Mexican food as our theme this month I knew the family would love it!

Mexican Salad by Renee Bryant

This is a refreshing traditional Mexican salad with a dressing of olive oil, lime juice and honey. The nice bite can be toned down to taste by using less jalapeno pepper. My personal preference is to substitute grape tomatoes for the plum tomatoes.

Skinny Mexican Style Chicken and Cornbread Casserole by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

My husband and I love this main course casserole so much, we ended up eating it 3 days in a row! The skinny for 1 serving, 323 calories, 8 grams of fat and 8 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. It’s a real cinch to make, freezes great and only needs a side salad to serve with it! Easy, right and did I mention that it’s absolutely DELICIOUS??
