00:00

00:35

00:40

00:41
So we actually have Ana Rio some healthy simple yum to give
00:46

00:49
healthy and get some healthy alternatives on our diet.
00:52
Right? Live a long life.
01:01
I'm Anna. So I know trio a registered dietitian and I've
01:06
been working with the Latino community for about eight years now and
01:11
my passion is helping my patients and my audience change their eating
01:16
habits without changing their culture.
01:18
So I'm super excited to be here.
01:20
We're happy to have you.
01:22
So I actually, we really need your help because I'm trying
01:25
to, I'm trying to eat healthier.
01:29
And he recently went to the doctor and you know,
01:32
and, and got a check up and we really need to
01:36
focus on his health,
01:38
but he only likes well,
01:39
I mean, he likes food in general,
01:41
but like he like loves Mexican food.
01:44
Like he's so used to Mexican food.
01:46
So we wanted to see how you can help us out with
01:49
providing healthier alternatives. Definitely.
01:53
So la comida, Mexicana can be so nutritious.
01:57
It's really just about making a few simple changes and adding because
02:03
a lot of people when you tell them that they're going to
02:05
start eating healthier or Vamos a dieta.
02:09
No, it's none of that.
02:11
It's really just about getting that flavor that you like.
02:15
But adding more to it in a way that's going to benefit
02:19
you, benefit your health.
02:21
So I'm, I'm really excited because I,
02:24
we have a surprise for him today.
02:30
I think your mom had to be here because she's the one
02:44
A because he loves food like he loves Mexican food.
02:49
you know, so we really,
02:50
it's hard to leave the,
02:52
you know, it's Swedish thing and salty and yeah,
02:56
so we're really appreciative that you're here to help us with that
02:59
Yeah, and it's not about,
03:01
you know, completely stopping food.
03:05
It's just about, you know,
03:06
poquito mens poquito maza.
03:10
I'm never going to have Pan Dulce.
03:13
I love panuls. I eat it.
03:15
It's just, you know,
03:16
finding a balance. Actually,
03:19
I have a question to,
03:23
you know, 01 or two,
03:24
para, three or four.
03:27
It's a little bowl of soup.
03:29
What are some healthy alternatives to tortillas or is there,
03:32
like, would it be whole grain tortillas or?
03:34
No? I think people need to remember that tortillas,
03:40
especially Alto de Mais.
03:41
Tortillas de Mais are a whole grain.
03:44
Like it makes me so sad when my patients come to me
03:48
and they're like, well,
03:49
I'm eating whole grain bread now instead of tortillas with my eggs
03:53
in the morning or whatever it may be like.
03:57
I mean, tortillas de Mais,
03:59
whole grain, they have fiber,
04:01
they're not super processed.
04:03
So, when it comes to portions,
04:06
I think it's always a great idea to keep the plate method
04:11
rule on hand for a guide because you want to have your
04:14
protein. You want to have a carb and you want to
04:17
have your vegetables. That's the easiest way to really try to
04:20
balance your meal. So if I want,
04:22
let's say I want tacos,
04:24
I want tacos de Pollo or the Frijol para Mazal la.
04:31
three tortillas, 3 to 4 tortillas,
04:33
the corn, the regular tortillas.
04:35
For me, that's a perfect amount per meal.
04:39
If that's the only carb in the meal,
04:41
we just have to remember that if there was rice or potatoes
04:46
or something else in the meal,
04:47
that's a carb, then maybe going down on the tortillas.
04:53
So, what are we going to try today?
04:57
I smell something. I smell something.
05:00
You ready? I've been ready.
05:04
We have chilaquiles in the house and we have one recipe that's
05:07
Anna and one that's just a,
05:09
you know, standard old chilaquiles recipes.
05:11
Like not as healthy as Anna.
05:12
Exactly. They look exactly the same.
05:16
Yeah. So what do they have?
05:25
No, let me try this.
05:37
Let's see. I wanna try him too.
05:42
Ok. Good. Delicious now enough because I wanna eat.
05:46
Ok. Now we try to see.
05:57
I see. Both are good.
06:06
Ok. So which one do you think is a,
06:09
I, I think this one right here you think is the
06:12
better one? That's the one you like?
06:14
Ma what's that? Crispy Een Raba?
06:18
Its much healthy. Honestly,
06:28
I don't know. I sa Oh,
06:32
really? Really? Can you go my home?
06:37
Can you go to my home?
06:40
P Cuando Quierra? A nice is to Casa.
06:47
Can you break down like what's the recipe consists of that?
06:50
Makes it healthier compared to the traditional Achilles recipe.
06:54
Traditional chilaquiles are typically fried,
06:57
deep fried in oil to get that crispiness per the chilaquiles that
07:03
I make. The recipe that you guys tried is air fried
07:08
So already already with that it's like 75 80% less graza
07:16
less fat you're probably going to be getting.
07:23
And this is a little bit of,
07:25
oh, so it's a little bit of oil and then the
07:28
man, huh? That's the amount of fat you're probably getting
07:31
from a normal chilaquiles plate versus air fry.
07:36
You just kind of like you said,
07:38
a little, a little coat or a spray.
07:45
And last thing where can people find you online?
07:47
