A delicious Mexican meal doesn’t have to be high in fat, calories or salt.

Try these healthier ideas from Sarah Bush Lincoln Weight Management:

• Include in your meal avocados, peppers, tomatoes, mangoes or jicama. Dip into fresh salsa, and make a dessert with a berry or other fruit base.
• Skip the sour cream, cheese and other high-fat fare, in favor of tortillas filled with veggies, chicken and beans. Look for dishes that are grilled, broiled, baked or stir-fried.
• Don’t be afraid to ask a restaurant for substitutions. Skip the fried tortilla shell for a taco salad, and ask for sauces and toppings to be served on the side. Choose soft corn tortillas.
• Season food with chilies, lime, cilantro and other fresh, natural flavors that don’t overpower with salt.
• Drink alcohol in moderation. Opt for a light beer or a margarita on the rocks, and skip the salt on the rim.
