Fajita stuffings are your choice, but some yummy ideas: Shredded Napa cabbage, black beans, nonfat Greek yogurt mixed with a little fresh lime juice, grilled or roasted red onions, carrots and sweet peppers tossed with shredded kale, (toss while the veggies are warm), homemade salsa made with fresh tomatoes, jalepenos and grated garlic. Of course, there’s always Guacamole…
