🌮 Topping & Serving Ideas

  • Tex-Mex Feast: Reduced-fat shredded cheese + diced avocado + crushed tortilla strips (track points accordingly).

  • Spicy Kick: Extra jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.

Pair with a light side salad or WW-friendly cornbread muffins for a complete meal.

📝 Author Note

This is one of those recipes I can make on autopilot — it’s always a hit in my house, and it’s one of the first things I recommend to my WW clients who want “real food” that doesn’t feel like diet food. My kids pile on tortilla chips and cheese, and I stick with Greek yogurt and cilantro… everybody wins!
