Cheesy Chicken Taquitos Recipe on Dr Oz - Defy Your Age Products, LCN Lacquer, Earth Kit
I loovvee Mexican food but it doesn't always love me.. I tend to overeat Mexican food to the point that I have to unbutton the top button on my jeans by the time I'm done.. Here is a recipe that appeared on the Dr Oz show that looked absolutely delicious but is made with healthy ingredients that has much less calories and fat. This recipe will most definitely be a part of my rotation and I absolutely had to add it to my blog!
Cheesy Chicken Taquitos Recipe
- 4 Cups of water
- 1 teaspoon of oregano (I never had any idea that oregano was full of antioxidants.. I knew of oregano as a seasoning and nothing more)
- 1 pound of boneless chicken breasts without the skin and cut into halves
- 6 ounces of shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 teaspoon of chopped chives 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 16 soft corn tortillas
- Canola oil spray
- 2 cups of Jicama guacamole (this ingredient was listed as optional, but I love Jicama guacamole)
- Add water to pot and bring to boil
- Add the chicken and salt. You can also steam the chicken if you would prefer to prepare it that way
- After water reaches a boil reduce the heat
- Cover the pot and simmer for 15 mins. Cook until the chicken is tender but not fully cooked all the way through
- Remove chicken and cut the chicken into small strips or cut into cubes
- Mix the chicken along with salt, pepper, cheese, and herbs.
- Heat up (lightly) tortillas on a griddle
- Add filling to tortillas and roll
- Secure the tortillas closed with toothpick
- Spray the cheesy taquitos you just rolled with some canola cooking spray.
- Bake the taquitos for approximately 10 minutes (in a cooking pan) until lightly golden brown.
- After the taquitos are finished top with some of the Jicama Guacamole
Also on today's Dr Oz show in case you missed it was a segment called "Defy Your Age". He talks about the Palovia Laser treatment, the Keratin Earth Kit, LCN Nail Lacquer, and more. Here are some quick summaries on what he talked about.
Keratin Earth Kit
Dr Oz did a segment talking about inexpensive ways to defy your age. One of the products that they featuredd was called "Keratin Earth Kit". The Keratin Earth Kit is a hair treatment that you can use at home that will moisturize dry and frizzy hair. The keratin hair products that salons often use contain formaldehyde. (I had no idea!).
The Keratin Earth Kit contains a shampoo, conditioner, and sealer.. A guest from the audience tested out the Keratin Earth Kit.. They showed a "before" picture and of course she suffered from dry and frizzy hair. She later came out and her hair was super silky!
LCN Nail Lacquer
Going to the manicurist to get your nails done can be quite costly. A stylist was talking to Dr Oz on stage and she said that the LCN Nail Lacquer treatment is a great alternative. Salons us UV lamps. The LCN Nail Lacquer kit allows you to dry your nails using just a 60 watt bulb. The stylist demonstrated the LCN Nail Lacquer and it looked super easy! Simply paint on the clear coat and hold your hand under the light for 3 minutes per nail.. That's it! You will have no chip nails for up to 2 weeks! Nice cost friendly alternative that doesn't us UV light... I just had to add a couple of beauty tips.. I think maybe I need to start a beauty blog as well ;)
