Start making tacos and enchiladas, make rice and beans as sides. Mexican food can be surprisingly low calorie and nutritious if you do it right, everyone can also alter their own plate to fit them, IE adding salsa, sour cream, cheese, guacamole, cilantro, tomato, etc. Use corn tortillas instead of flour, two corn tortillas have like 120 calories. Use shredded chicken thighs or trimmed skirt steak instead of fatty ground beef. Instead of cheddar you should sparingly use some fresh white mexican cheese. Have plenty of fresh veggie garnish on the side. Get a good homemade charro bean or borracho bean recipe, shit's a delicious, filling, and nutritious side dish. Homemade spanish rice. If you do all of this right I don't know how your family wouldn't love it. Get a big bag of cheddar, sour cream, and calorie dense flour tortillas if your mom insists, tacos are cool though because you can make them how you want. Tostadas are great too and the same concept. You can add awesome veggies to it too, try shredded cabbage, carrots, instead of lettuce use some spinach or watercress, etc.

man, i wouldn't make it if i couldn't eat tacos. texfag here and i eat em a few times a week. usually not the crunchy ones though, i like soft corn and sometimes flour tortillas. if i need some crunch then i'll just get tostadas or chalupas, they are easier and less messy.

imo they are superior to a sandwich because the tortilla is less filling than bread so its really more about the insides than getting full on carbs.

same guy that made the 212 post.

marinate it for a few hours in lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and salt. throw em on the grill and cook at a high temp, cook them, lets say medium. also be grilling or frying some onions, bell peppers, jalapenos, all with a nice layering of fresh cilantro.

slice the meat thin, add the grilled or sauteed veggies, roll or fold in a fresh and warm corn tortilla.

enjoy a classy and legit rib-eye taco. top with fresh cilantro, pico de galo, crema or sour cream, and mexican queso.

i've never had a rib-eye taco, but i can only imagine that it would be badass.
