The Best Fish Nachos for Weight Loss!
I'm always looking for quick and easy weight loss recipes for personal training clients. My general rule is that it shouldn't take more than 15 minutes (after all, you need the extra time for your sessions with a personal trainer!). Here is my recent simple creation. Give it a try!!!
Ingredients:
-3/4 lb of wild Mahi (Trader Joes) (or a protein substitute if desired)
-4 dashes of cajun seasoning
-3/4 cup of your favorite salsa (no additives, preservatives, or high fructose corn syrup)
-2 cups of Frontera Thin and Crispy Corn Tortilla Chips
-1 can of organic black beans (drained and rinsed)
-2 cups of spinach (cut julienne style)
-1 lime (cut into wedges)
-1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
Cut the wild mahi filets into thin 1 inch strips, toss in cajun seasoning, and saute in a preheated pan of olive oil (medium heat) for 3 minutes on each side. Squeeze 2 wedges of lime over the fish.
While the fish is cooking, spread the chips evenly on a plate with a bed of spinach on top. Then, heat the drained beans with a 1/4 cup of salsa and spread evenly on the spinach.
Finally, place the fish strips on top of the spinach before topping with the remaining salsa. Squeeze a couple of lime wedges over the dish for a citrus kick.
