Hola! Happy Friday! Hope you’re all having a lovely day! Me? I’m great…after just eating my delicious ground chicken quesadilla! 🙂 Mexican food is one of my favourite types of cuisines. Crunchy textures, spicy flavours and ooh that cheese! What’s not to love? Well…a lot of restaurant style mexican food is unhealthy and calorie laden…that’s why my awesome ground chicken saves the day with its tasty and crunchy guilt free deliciousness. Served along side my Tomato “Salsa” Salad, this is the perfect meal when you are craving a healthy bite of Mexico.
