MEXICAN MEALS FOR FAT LOSS: HUEVO Y RAJAS EN SALSA ROJA 🇲🇽 with two minor tweaks, this nutritious recipe has more protein and less fat than the original! The trick is using egg whites in lieu of 2 eggs to make this traditional Mexican breakfast a higher volume, lower calorie option. This recipe is so low calorie you have room for toppings and/or tortillas!
