[header] How to make healthy mexican food [title] Avoid deep fried options. [step] As with any type of cuisine, the healthiest mexican options are those that aren't deep fried. Stay away from dishes such as hard shell tacos, chimichangas, taquitos, and chile relleno, which are all deep fried to give them a crispy texture. 
[substeps] You can replace hard taco shells with soft, healthy tortillas for a leaner taco. Make burritos or fajitas instead of chimichangas.
