Hi Everyone!
I hope you are all having a wonderful Saturday! Today's recipe is another healthy recipe: "Vegetarian Taco", this recipe is full with flavors, and good things for your body, it does have some carbs because I added potatoes to it, but I believe everything is good in moderation. I don't think I could ever go on a no-carb diet, just because I love potatoes and pasta so much, anyway, I read somewhere, that potatoes are good carbs and are high in vitamins and minerals. I combined them with beans, onions, tomatoes, peppers and corn, all in a whole wheat tortilla, and I assure you, they make a perfect meal without the need of any meat. This one is not only healthy but it is also easy and very satisfying! Even if you are a meat-lover, you wont regret eating this Taco! I hope you give it a try! Stay tuned for more Vegetarian Meals, I will be posting new vegetarian recipes at least every other week!
