tex-mex baked potatoes

January 29th, 2010

You possibly will not think it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes tex-mex baked potatoes but it can happen. It is fundamental to not eat tex-mex baked potatoes or other high calorie rice, noodles, potatoes, starch every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself rich food one meal per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories per day, and then one day, I eat what I please – within reason of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last few weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have only been conscious of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

I also find it is helpful if you have a little support when on a weight loss program and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to enable you to monitor your progress and reach your goals.

Tex-Mex Baked Potatoes

4 baking potatoes
1 pound lean ground beef
1 (12 ounce) jar mild or hot salsa
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
1 tablespoon chopped stuffed green olives
1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
1 cup thinly sliced iceberg lettuce
Sliced tomatoes

Scrub potatoes; pierce skin with fork. Bake at 400 degrees F until tender, about 1 hour.

Fifteen minutes before potatoes are done, saute meat in hot skillet until all pink disappears. Add salsa and chili powder to meat. Cover. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes.

Add green pepper and olives to meat mixture. Heat through.

Cut baked potatoes open. Spoon hot meat mixture into potatoes. Top at once with cheese so that it melts slightly.

Serve with lettuce sprinkled on top and with sliced tomatoes alongside.
