Mmm, Mexico. Seriously – what’s not to love? The fresh flavours, colourful decor and all-round laid-back vibe of a fab fiesta. Our fave national cuisine has got everything you need to satisfy your cravings and have a good time!
To be honest… Mexican food isn’t always the healthiest option on the menu. Especially those crispy corn chips and layers of melted cheese, topped with chilli salsa, more melted cheese and guacamole. Did we mention cheese? But here’s the good news – with a bit of MNB magic, you can still have your weekly Mexican meal and keep your fit frame.
We’re all about those slight tweaks to traditional dishes to make way for a brand new, abracadabra healthy version that, in our humble opinion, tastes even better than the original.
We’ve reworked classic Carbonara, Lasagna and Burger recipes, and now it’s time to overhaul your go-to Mexican dish! Because we never want you to be without your favourite food while you’re eating healthy.
When it comes to Mexican cuisine, tacos are always a crowd-pleaser. They’re easy breezy to prepare, super colourful and fun to assemble. Jazz up the table with a Mexican throw, candles, some festive music, and you’ve got yourself a Mexican party.
We’ve created a healthy spin on a traditional Mexican fave with our healthy fish tacos! This is a dish that the whole family will enjoy and a sure-fire hit for your next dinner party. On the plus side… it only takes 20 minutes to create. Winner!
