Fresh Fajita Tacos

20130210-141147.jpg

Hi, my name is Roni, and I’m addicted to reality TV.

There, I said it. Phew. You see, I can’t stop watching shows like Toddlers & Tiaras, Hoarders, and Say Yes To The Dress. They suck you in to the point where you have to watch just one more episode.

On a completely random other note, avocados are on sale all the time recently. I’m not complaining, they’re one of my favorite foods. Just surprised. That’s what has caused me to make fresh fajita tacos. I had some steak, so I seasoned it thoroughly with cumin, cayenne, black ground pepper, and garlic powder. I sliced and grilled that until I got a nice char on the meat.

I placed the meat on a bed of avocado, diced Roma tomatoes, and Romaine lettuce. It was delicious!

Avocado Steak Lettuce Tacos

Kick the carbs to the curb.

Even though it’s been cold out, I’ve been thinking of summer. Yes, I totally rock my knit pom-pom hat like a champ, and scarves are my best friend, but I miss laying out on the beach in my bikini. So instead of making a heavy, coma-inducing meal for myself, I opted for what I’d enjoy on a hot summer day.

I started by sauteing a quarter cup of fresh salsa (diced Roma tomatoes, sweet onions, and green peppers) in olive oil. Add a teaspoon each of cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and black pepper. When the vegetables are cooked down (the tomato will start to fall apart and make a sauce), add a quarter cup of diced steak. Cook the meat through.

I plated this on cleaned Romaine lettuce and topped it with a slice of avocado. Delicious!
