Chef's Notes: For a delicious variation, use ½ cup chopped tomatoes in place of cherry tomatoes. You can use any type of lettuce you like. Romaine and colorful leaf lettuces will have the maximum nutrition and flavor. Fresh spinach leaves would also make a delicious and nutritious substitute. Corn tortillas can also be used in place of whole-wheat tortillas.
Fresh Veggies HealthBites: Fresh vegetables and beans are packed with nutritious fiber. A high fiber lifestyle is one of the best ways you can live well naturally with less disease and more health. High fiber will lower blood sugar levels and is one of the most successful ways to reverse type 2 diabetes. It will also lower LDL or bad cholesterol levels, blood pressure, and inflammation—all of which are linked to cardiovascular disease.
