How Many Propoints in Salsa's

Eating out: at Salsas Fresh Mex Grill

Check out the full list of eating out guides here.

I love Mexican food!!! And salsas is always fresh quick and tasty but the ProPoint values are surprisingly higher than I expected!

But this hasn’t stopped me from eating at Salsas when I dare venture into the Westfield food court; instead if I’m choosing a burrito I order it without the rice. If i am tempted to try the chips “Mexixrinkle’s” I normally share them with a friend. The taco’s are a good low point/ calorie option as well. 

They also have diet drinks and water to make it a meal without ending up with a huge amount of calories that you regret later. And all there meat dishes can be substituted for vegetarian beans.

Turkey Taco Soup

I love soup because it’s so filling and I love Mexican food, so when I came across this recipe I was so excited to try it! There as so many variations on this I’m not sure where it originated.

I was originally intended to make “lasagne” soup by afarmgirlsdabbles but because I used a slow cooker and because of my love of Mexican food; it turned into a pasta free, Mexican style soup instead.

I’m not a big meat eater so if you’re big on meat you may want to double the amount of turkey but keep in mind that it’s meant to be a soup and not a pasta sauce. You can use a slow cooker or stove top for this recipe, I prefer the slow cooker as it uses no oil and it’s easier.

If you’re looking for a low sodium version; use salt reduced stock and beans with no added salt. You could also try lime juice instead of salt for seasoning!

Mountain Bread "tortilla" chips

I decided to make my own chips for dips and snacks but instead of using tortilla's I tried mountain bread! They came out very light and crispy; I was very impressed. The only flavouring I used was salt but you could use pepper, chilli flakes, lime, garlic, cumin, vinegar or dried herbs. Be careful though, as they can burn easy if you leave them in the oven to long.
