Let’s be honest . . . there are lots of yummy dessert recipes on our blog, but we know how important it is to eat healthy and watch our intake. I LOVE Mexican food and came across this recipe from Recipes to Run On and knew that I needed to try it. It looked big on flavor, but lower on calories, so I made it last week and it was a HUGE hit with my family. It was super easy to throw together and was ready in no time! My 2 year old little boy had THIRDS, which never happens. I would give this 5 out of 5 stars- I will be making this again in the near future!!
