Tomorrow night I am going with a group of friends to a local Mexican restaurant and a play afterwards. I have been looking forward to this but have become worried about what to eat.
This is a local restaurant and the menu is not online. It is too far away for me to run by and pick up a menu but I want to go in with some idea of what to order. I looked at Moe’s Southwest Grill nutritional info to try to get some ideas.
I have planned low calorie meals for early in the day, so I will have about 800 calories to work with. A 1000 calorie meal won’t hurt too bad as I am shaving 100 calories off of today’s limit and can do the same on Sunday.
Option 1 - I am considering ordering a fajita, skipping the sour cream and guacamole and having them put the cheese on the side. If I just eat the meat, peppers, onion, one tortilla, and a little cheese, I thought that I could count it as 800 calories. Do you think that would be close?
Option 2 – Order the chicken quesadilla that I really want but I am not sure that 1000 calories would cover it.
There may be better options but I am not that familiar with the calories in Mexican food. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
