300 Calorie Meals - Pork, Onion and Pepper Fajitas
In Sweetie and I's effort to drop some excess weight we have taken on a Biggest Loser Challenge set up by Sweetie's workplace. One of the tools they gave us is a Betty Crocker cookbook called: the 300 calorie cook book. We are taking the challenge seriously. I must say that I am truly loving cooking these yummy meals full of flavor and staying within the calorie count we are allowed each day.
The pictures I uploaded was from Pork, Onion and Pepper Fajitas.
1/2 pork tenderloin
1/4 cup lime juice
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp salt
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 large onion, thinly sliced
5 medium bell peppers (any color thinly sliced)
4 fat free flour tortillas (6-8 inch)
Trim fat from pork, but into 2 1/2 inch strips. Mix pork, lime juice, cumin, salt and galic in heavy duty resealable food storage plastic bag. Seal bag and refrigerate at least 8 hours but no longer than 24.
Remove pork from marinade; reserve marinade. Spray 10 inch skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. Add pork; cook 3 minutes, stirring once. Stir in onion, bell peppers and marinade. Cook 5 to 8 minutes longer, stirring occasionally, until onion and perppers are crisp tender.
Place 1/4 of pork mixture in center of each tortilla. Fold one end of tortilla up about 1 inch over mixture, fold right and left sides over folded end, overlapping. Fold remaining end down.
You can serve it with chopped tomato sprinkled with fresh cilantro, salso, and fat free sour cream. It is so yummy! This meal is only 250 calories!
