Time 51m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 medium sweet onion, finely diced
1 pound ground white meat chicken (white meat only, no fat)
1/4 to 1/3 cup lime juice, plus 1 lime, zested
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 head romaine lettuce, thinly sliced
1 mango, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1 tomato, cored, cut into 6 to 8 wedges
1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions
3/4 cup cooked canned, white beans or black beans, (fat free, sugar free) rinsed and drained
1 avocado, peeled, seeded and cut into 8 wedges
1 (16-ounce) jar sugar free, fat free tomato salsa

Steps:

  • In a medium saute pan over medium high heat, cook onions in 1 to 2 tablespoons water until softened and cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes.

  • Arrange lettuce on large platter with remaining ingredients. Top with chicken, garnish with baked chips and jalapenos.
