#TacoTuesday… You know The Healthy Version

I said an hour but it has been longer… sorry… I was eating the meal I am about to amaze you with 🙂

TACO TUESDAY!!!!

Yes I love me some Tacos…

My waist- Not so much.

So… I make Healthy Tacos and I work out really hard.

First… I work out hard…. Something like Deadlifts, 10min AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) of 10 Power Cleans (75lbs),

10 C2B pull ups, 10 strict burpees… I did 4 rounds…. I was in deed wanting some Tacos.

Crossfit

At least my hard work is paying off for some leg tonnage! And I got a new CrossFit Sweatshirt!

But! You can not put that hard work in for it to go to waste by eating poop for dinner! So see below for this yummy gem of a recipe!

Enjoy!!!

Ingredients!

6 La Tortilla Factory Low Carb Soft Taco Tortillas

1 package Marcela Valladolid Beef Skirt steak (cut into strips)

1 Green bell pepper (sliced into thin strips)

1 Red bell pepper (sliced into thin strips)

2 TBSP olive oil divided

2 TBSP La Victoria Med Salsa Thick n’ Chunky

DIRECTIONS:

1. Prepare ingredients by cutting meat and bell peppers into strips as stated above

2. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a shallow pan and cook meat until half way done. Lower heat to continue to slowly cook through.

3. Mean while heat the other 1TBSP olive oil in another pan and fry up the bell peppers. Peppers should have a crunch to them and not be soggy (about 5-6 mins).

4. Turn the heat back up on the meat and once sizzling again add the sautéed peppers to the meat.  Stirring frequently! (about 5mins)

5. Remove from heat cover with a lid and place aside on stove

6. Take your tortillas out of the package, wrap in a semi-moist paper towel and microwave 30-45 seconds depending on your microwave. Remove and start building your tacos!

7. I added the salsa for the extra flavor and metabolism burn 🙂

Serves 3 people, 2 tacos each.
