Eat Your Way to Health with Healthy Mexican Recipes
The Northern Mexican diet is considered by many to be one of the three healthiest diets in the world. Beans, generally pintos, which by the way are the healthiest of all beans, are paired in many dishes with corn, especially corn tortillas. This amazingly simple diet is quite sustainable and with the addition of chiles in salsa or fresh or pickled chiles such as jalapenos—the diet is quite tasty.
Salsas have become so popular, they have outsold all other table condiments such as catsup since the 1980's. They are wonderfully flavorful, healthier than any alternative, amazingly versatile,always having a spicy bite and often having signature flourishes of the cook or chef who created them.
Mexico's favorite chile relleno, Chiles en Nogado, has its roots in Cinco de Mayo, but can be enjoyed any time of year. It is a festival or special type of dish that is beautiful to behold.
Have you eaten chile today? That question could save your life. As dramatic as it sounds, chiles when consumed regularly work in wondrous ways to defend your body against the ravages of stress.
Nearly everything about chili is controversial including the spelling. The spelling, chili, is probably taken from the Midwestern or Eastern spelling, which came from the British chilley.

You can never know too much about chiles! They are an amazing fruit that promises to make you healthier when you eat them regularly.

Ever give much thought to the popularity of corn tortillas? Did you know that they have become so popular in the US, that they now outsell bread. The simple corn tortilla has long been the staff of life for the native population in Mexico and points south.
"Diet crazes come and go,because people get tired of boring food patterns or too many rules," says Jane Butel, author of 18 cookbooks, cooking school teacher and first to write about Southwestern and Mexican regional cooking. The best solution to weight maintenance is to develop healthy eating and lifestyle patterns.

Researchers and archeologists agree that New Mexico was one of the earliest settlements of the Mongolians and Tibetans when they came over the Bering strait to settle the Americas. The area has attracted visitors from before recorded history, who in turn created the pure, often spicy flavors known in New Mexico's foods.

Posole is a popular Southwestern stew originally made by the ancients in New Mexico and Mexico. The sacred aspects or blessings came from the fact that corn was their staple grain and the Corn Goddess, was the giver of life. Prior to modern transportation and communication, posole was often the dish eaten for survival. The blue corn of New Mexico has 100% nutrition; possessing all the vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids for healthy living. (Other varieties of corn do not have lycine, an essential amino acid, that humans can digest.)
With fall's arrival, green chiles ripen to become red. The amazing phenomenon is that the nutrition also changes. In green chiles the flesh is very rich with Vitamin C, whereas when the slant of the sun signals Fall-the flesh becomes very rich with Vitamin A, the sight vitamin.

Developing a chile habit is one of the kindest things you can do for yourself! What happens when one eats chiles is that the capsaicin within the chile fires one's endorphins at a direct proportion to the heat or Scoville units within the chiles.
