The benefits of healthy eating are now being given more attention than ever before and there are many reasons for this. Poor diet is one factor in diseases such as heart disease and hypertension which can place a drain on the economy. No matter where you look, people are encouraging you to live a healthier way of living but on the other hand, you are also being encouraged to rely on convenience foods that can affect your health in a bad way. In all likelihood, a lot of people assume that it takes too much work to eat healthily and that they will need to drastically change their lifestyle. Contrary to that information, people can change their eating habits for the better by implementing a couple of simple changes.

These more nutritious food choices can be applied to other foods such as your cooking oils. For instance, monounsaturated fat such as olive oil can be helpful in offsetting the bad cholesterol in your diet. It can also be beneficial for your skin as it is a great source of vitamin E. It may be that you already think that you consume fruit and leafy greens but it can be worthwhile considering how fresh these are depending on where you purchase these. If at all possible, try buying organic produce that has not been sprayed with deadly pesticides. You will be sure that you’re getting the most nutritional benefits from your fresh produce if you can locate a local supplier since you will be able to purchase the fruit when it is the freshest and ripest.

Obviously, it’s not hard to begin incorporating healthy eating into your daily routine.

The ingredients needed to make Enchiladas Rojas:
  1. Take Tortillas
  2. You need 1 chicken breast
  3. Provide 1 lb Queso Fresco (los altos is 👌🏼)
  4. Use 3 tomatoes

  6. Take 1 garlic clove
  7. Provide 1/2 red onion
  8. Prepare 1 Roma lettuce
  9. Provide Sour cream
  10. Take 1 Cucumber
  11. Prepare Vegetable Oil
Steps to make Enchiladas Rojas:
  1. Boil water in a pot, and heat 2 out of your 3 tomatoes, and your 5 chiles Nuevo México
  2. Boil water in a separate medium pot and boil 1 chicken breast or 2 halves with salt to taste and a 1/4 of an onion…. cook throughly, roughly about 45 mins
  3. Blend your heated tomatoes with your Nuevo México Chiles and the garlic clove, and add salt to taste.
  4. In a skillet, heat up a little bit of oil and add your blended mixture (you can strain it for no seeds, I don't do it tho) Simmer for about 1-2 mins on medium high
  5. Chop up your Roma lettuce to top of your enchiladas with, cut your 1 tomato in juliets, slice your onion in juliets, and slice your cucumber in thin circles or halves. Set aside until your enchiladas are ready to be topped with.
  6. Crumble your Queso Fresco in a bowl and have ready to top your enchiladas with it😋
  7. If your sour cream is too thick you can add milk to make it a little more runny, set aside until enchiladas are ready
  8. Drain and shred your chicken breast
  9. And now the ENCHILADAS!!!
  10. Choice number 1: a good Mexican enchilada usually is prepped by heating oil in a skillet, dipping each tortilla one by one in your enchilada sauce and AFTER, heating it in your heated vegetable oil and removing from heat once cooked; adding your shredded chicken, rolling and topping it off with the lettuce, tomato, cucumber, Queso Fresco and sour cream. HOWEVER KERP IN MIND THIS IS VERY MESSY BUT SO GOOD! Your oil will splatter everywhere because of the chile sauce on your tortilla!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️
  11. Choice Number 2: heat up your oil in a skillet, dip raw tortilla WITHOUT the sauce, cook softly throughly and dip your cooked tortilla into heated enchilada sauce after (this avoids the splatter, but it's not the "Mexican way" to make them lol. They're still very very good!!
  12. Which ever way you choose to make them, stuff with your shredded chicken, roll, and top with your veggies, sour cream, and queso 👌🏼
  13. TIP: I heat up all my tortillas in the oil, and dip into sauce after to avoid the splatter, place my wet and cooked tortillas on a plate, pile about 8 and then stop and roll them instead of making one tortilla and rolling. It's faster and less messy this way!
  14. Serve Hot and Enjoy
