TIPS Tuesday: Vive Los Chiles Rellenos

There is very little chance I'd give up Mexican food. But, much of it does come in flour-based wrappers. What to do? Well, besides using zucchini slices to scoop up salsa, there is one dish that avoids this problem entirely (I do permit the occasional tortilla chip, though): chiles rellenos. Usually stuffed--with cheeses, and sometimes other veggies--poblano chiles, you can order it with beans, and ask to hold the rice. That's how I rolled at Marix the other day--the first time I'd been in there since beginning my NERC diet. Esta bien.
