Quinoa Tacos (or Taquos, if you're nasty)

Maybe "nasty" isn't a welcome word in the title of a food blog post. But if you don't get the Janet Jackson reference, maybe you don't belong here. WAIT! Please stay. I promise these Taquos are worth putting up with my snark.

So your family is having tacos and you're having a battle with the scale. Don't fret, amiga. You can have healthy, filling, totally soul-satisfying "tacos" without hating yourself.

Ingredients:
Romaine lettuce
1/2 cup prepared taco meat
1/2 cup prepared quinoa

For the sauce: 1/4 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup plain nonfat greek yogurt, 1/4 cup salsa (I like verde, but your choice.) This is a really easy sauce to customize, too, depending on what you have handy. You can add jalapenos (pickled or fresh), fresh cilantro, lime. Add a little salt to taste and you've got a yummy light topper or dip for all things Mexican.

Easy enough. Just mix the taco meat and quinoa and serve as lettuce wraps. Top with sauce.

Enjoy the poison. ☠
