Family Fajitas

Fajitas are a soft-shelled, healthier version of hard-shelled tacos. Kids especially love fajitas because they can choose their own toppings & can eat them with their hands. 

INGREDIENTS

• 3 red or green peppers, cut into thin strips
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• about 1 pound (454 grams) thin steak, cut into strips
• 2 cups lettuce, cut into shreds
• ¼ cup tomato salsa
• ½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 6 medium-sized tortillas, preferably whole grain
• hot sauce (optional)

PREPARATION

1. Put 1 tablespoon of oil, onion & peppers into a large frying pan. On medium heat, fry until soft. Set aside.
2. In the same frying pan, add another tablespoon of oil & sprinkle the steak with pepper and then fry it until cooked. No longer than 10 minutes.
3. In separate bowls, set out on the table the cooked vegetables, lettuce, salsa, and steak.
4. Let family members make their own fajitas by placing the filling on a tortilla, top with cheese, and fold or roll it.
