Many Mexico meat dishes use pork or beef. Make a habit of replacing or lean beef or chicken as meat. The main dishes such as fajitas, enchiladas, tacos or are very versatile and can use almost any type of lean meat, including seafood.

The next most important ingredient in any Mexican dish is cheese. Use low-fat cheese instead, or experiment with different types of cheese like Swiss or mozzarella. These two cheeses tend to be low in fat and still taste great. If the recipe calls cream cheese, just use a version of low fat or no fat. Another option is to slightly reduce the amount of cheese used in the dish. While cheese is a great source of protein, it also packs in quite a few calories and fat grams.
