Forget Fast Food, Hail Fresh Food!
|
Typical fast food is speedy, yes, but it's also unhealthy, pre-prepared and lacking in variety. Even when you buy a sandwich, it's usually been made hours, if not days, before. And you can never swap the onion for cucumber, can you? A recently movement towards tastier and healthier lunchtime fast food has been spreading across London. One of the more popular variations invading the capital is quick, delicious Mexican food.
Trendy, efficient Mexican restaurants in London are serving hungry city workers every day of the week with a quick, nutritious alternative to packaged salads, sandwiches or burgers. It’s a food revolution. Mexican food in London is a bit British, a bit Latin American, and the beauty of a burrito or a box of nachos is that getting hold of them is just as fast (if not faster) as standing in line for a microwaved pile of grease.
In the new wave of gourmet Mexican takeaway restaurants you can choose from a traditional burrito – a flour tortilla filled with rice, black beans and whatever else you're in the mood for. Or you can go 'skinny' with an unwrapped version, try some tacos, or have a box of nachos – ideal for sharing. Fill with your choice of marinated char-grilled chicken, deliciously pink steak, slow cooked pork, or for vegetarians, char-grilled veggies with marinated tofu. Pile some spicy salsa, sour cream, cheese, jalapeños, guacamole and salad on top and you're done! Okay, so if you have all of that, then it's not going to be quite as healthy as a salad, but the beauty of Mexican street food is that you can alter it depending on how hard a morning you've had, and whether or not you're going to the gym after work.
To give you a bit more of an idea, a typical, stomach-filling burrito with chicken contains around 10 grams of fat. Compare that to a beef burger from a popular chain, which tips the scales at 24 grams of fat. While both may contain roughly the same amount of calories, a burrito is lower in fat and deliver more energy in nutritious fibre and slowly breaking down carbs. Mexican food is as healthy as you choose to make it, it's fast, and it's great value for money for a lunchtime meal that will keep you filled up for the afternoon. Get down to your local restaurant today and join the Mexican food revolution!
