LOW CARB MEXICAN CASSEROLE
If you're a fan of Mexican food but watching carbs or calories, you'll love this Low Carb Mexican Casserole. The casserole is also low in fat, with just 4 WW freestyle points per serving! You can reduce the points even more by using low fat cheddar, but I think the good stuff is worth a couple extra points. Used with permission from Genius Kitchen.
