Recipes Wanted
After spending 4 years in Texas and 3 in Arizona, I developed a craving
for Mexican "style" food. I'm really craving some things for breakfast but I have a problem. I have a heart condition and I'm diabetic. But I would like some recipes if anyone has some that fits the bill. Keep in my though I'm now in New Jersey and ingredients are mighty hard to find. Thanks to all who can help me out. -- Squire |

There a several companies extracting the right ingredients; but I don't know any more than that. Nopalitos are great in salads, in scrambled eggs, in quesadillas and almost anywhere a green veggie is called for. Wayne |

While we are on the subject of stores, I seen what looked like long flat bean pods, approx. 1 1/2 ft.long x 1 in. wide, they reminded me of mesquite beans only larger. What are they and how are they used? I didn't find any signs and I was in a hurry to get some peppers for a salsa, so I didnt ask at the store. > -- William Barfieldsr > |

The beans you describe sound like guajes. The are used dried and fresh
- I toasted some with salt as a snack. Only problem with toasted guajes are they are rather flatulent inducing.

I see someone's already directed you to recipesource.com. Recipes *are* your best bet, if you need to avoid salt and fat. Beans don't need to be "refried," ingredients for fresh salsa (tomato, peppers, onion, garlic, and even cilantro) are readily available. Voila -- huevos rancheros! If eggs are OK for you. :-) What exactly is it that you're missing? |
