Amyberto’s

I grew up in San Diego.

Mexican food is everywhere. I would say that the original taco shop was Roberto’s.

Then there was Alberto’s.

Royberto’s.

Rayberto’s.

Adalberto’s.

Ronberto’s.

Juanberto’s.

Sombrero. El Cotixan. Cotijas.

There are gazillions.

I miss having them on every street corner. But I’m glad because I’m afraid I’d be driving through for 5 rolled tacos with guac or a carne asada or California burrito or better yet some carne asada nachos.

Yesterday I spotted this recipe for {Baked Chimichangas} on my friend, Leah’s blog. I knew we were going to have them this weekend! I was cheap and bought the tortillas that were on sale and they turned out to be too small for the chimichangas, so I sorta made fat taquitos or flautas instead.

They were delish and certainly satisfied the Mexican food craving, but were much healthier since they star ground turkey and fat free refried beans {I used Rosarita green chile & lime}. I also served lowfat sour cream and some avocado on the side. I did cheat and use the packaged Spanish rice….

Thanks for the recipe, Leah! Next time I’ll spend the extra money and get the BIG tortillas!

How ’bout them Packers!
