Cinco De Mayo Ground Chicken Tacos

Feliz Cinco de Mayo!!  Translation, Happy 5th of May!!  For the occasion I have made chicken tacos.  Tacos that are so easy, so low-fat, and so tasty, you would never believe it!!  You just need to try making them for the proof.  Yes some of the ingredients are already made for you but it is still an amazing quick and easy alternative to Taco Bell!!

Ingredients for Ground Chicken Tacos:

99% Fat Free Ground Chicken (What I Use)
Taco Seasoning Mix (What I Use)
Guacamole (My famous Guacamole will be posted at a later date)
Low Fat Mexican Cheese (What I Use)
Salsa
Shredded Lettuce
Corn Tortillas


To make the tacos is very simple.  In a saute pan with a small amount of Olive Oil, cook ground chicken into crumbles.  Mix 1/2 cup of water with seasoning mix.  Add to cooked chicken.  Simmer for 5 minutes.  While simmering, put cheese, guacamole, salsa and shredded lettuce into serving bowls.  Heat corn tortillas until they start to become slightly stiff (Will only happen in oven).  Put the chicken in a serving bowl and you are ready to enjoy your Cinco de Mayo (or easy any night) dinner.  It may not sound like much but they really do fill me up.  All I need is 2.  


A couple of notes on the recipe
-If you cannot find the 99% Fat Free ground chicken, regular ground chicken will work but will increase the fat considerably.  And take it from me the 99% fat free kind tastes great!!
-I use organic seasoning mix, and I recommend it highly.  Regular seasoning mix have all sorts of additives such as MSG, high fructose corn syrup, and hydrogenated oils.  Stay away from them.
-I promise, I will post my famous guacamole that everyone talks about.  Just need to find the right day.  For now you can use any store made guacamole or try making it yourself.  There are many recipes out there.
-Make sure to heat the corn tortillas.
-Usually people would drink a nice cold beer with tacos.  I do something a little different.  I accompanied my tacos with an amazing wine which I will feature in this weeks Wine of The Week.  It is perfect for Mexican food.
