Macaroni Monday is Cancelled!
Well, for this week, at least. Instead, I am sharing the delicious steak tacos we made for Cinco de Mayo. I am all about having special meals to celebrate all year 'round. In fact, I really need to make a list of all the crazy food-related holidays so I can make fun recipes to celebrate. Remind me to add that to my to-do list!
Anyway, at the last minute, John and I decided to make steak tacos for dinner. About 40 minutes later we were sitting down enjoying them. If I had already made the tortillas, or if we purchased them, it probably would have been ready in about 20 minutes. Is that fast enough for ya?
To start off, I made tortillas. They require almost no active time, just about 30 minutes of resting time for the dough. They are impossibly easy to make, and pretty fun, too! Every single time I make them, I ask myself why I don't do it more often. I have no idea.
While the tortillas rested and were cooked, John seasoned some steaks with garlic, salt, pepper, cumim, red pepper flakes, and oregano. He grilled them and I sliced them against the grain of the meat so they would be easy to bite into when in taco form.
While all of this was going on, John and I prepped the fillings. We used things we had around the house, like lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and peppers.
When everything was complete, we mad the tacos!
