This is a beautifully light dish served on its own or as part of a larger dinner. It’s high protein, low carb, and very low fat. The calories in this dish are all in the Tortilla chips it is served with.
We recommend the baked beet chips as a wonderful accompaniment. Or served this as a main dish on a tostada.
