I need to find a restaurant for people who care about what they eat and have some dietary restrictions that generally make dinning out a challenge. Today I had a small quesadilla and salsa for lunch...and it was just perfect. In a restaurant it would have been;
- at least twice the size
- made with flour tortillas
- made with cows milk cheese
- come with much more than salsa
- have a ridiculous amount of calories
- made with one or 2 small tortillas
- made with corn or gluten free
- made with sheep, goat or dairy-free cheese
- not come with additional food I don't need (beans, rice, sour cream, etc)...unless I ask
- be around 300 calories so I can have it for lunch and not blow my daily calorie limit
One single chia seed tortilla folded with Manchego (sheep) cheese and fresh cilantro leaves. Lightly toasted on an iron skillet on each side until the cheese melts. Cut into 3 pieces and served with a generous spoon of organic fire roasted corn and black bean salsa. Yummy!
- I made the chia seed tortillas using this recipe from The Spunky Coconut, but they are commercially available, a simple Google search will prove that.
- I got the Manchego from Costco, 'cause we eat a lot of it!
- I bought the salsa from Whole Foods
