You could order chicken fajitas - go very light on the tortillas and eat mostly the chicken, onions, etc. Leave off the sour cream & cheese. The biggie is - avoid the chips!!

yep chicken Fajitas or even tacos wouldn't be too bad. But then I have been letting myself have one meal a week where I use my weekly points. So far though I haven't used many of them. I wonder though which would be better, corn or flour tortillas? Well to answer my own question you can have 2 small corn to one med flour tortilla. So I guess it doesn't make a whole lot of difference. LOL Just try to keep it to one Margarita. LOL

Marci, corn tortillas are better. 2 small ones are alot more filling to me then one flour. I have found a brand that you get 2 corn tortillas for one point.
At home, I make taco junk in the crockpot, which is 2 points for 1/2 cup and then "fry" corn tortillas in a spray of olive oil, top the whole works with tomatos and salsa and it is like a feast for points 5 points.
