On September 29th I decided to make Carne Asada Tacos and I used a recipe I saw on Tasty! Well, I have been slacking and failed to post this recipe for quite some time. So, for those of you who saw my Instagram post and have been dying for the recipe, here it is:
Things you will need: 1lb flank steak 1 gallon size bag Corn tortillas For marinade: ⅓ cup canola oil ⅓ white vinegar ⅓ cup orange juice ⅓ cup lime juice 4 tsp minced garlic 3 tbsp jalapeno (chopped) ¼ cup cilantro (optional) Anthony doesn't like Cilantro 2 tsp salt 1 tsp coriander (optional) I was too lazy to buy Coriander. ½ tsp cumin 1 tsp pepper 1 tsp chile powder Directions: Mix ingredients for marinade thoroughly and place ¾ of the mixture into a gallon-size back with the meat. Let marinate for 1-3 hours. Keep ¼ of the mixture for cooking. On medium-high heat, grill the marinated meat for 5 minutes on each side. This will give you a medium-rare steak. If you want your meat prepared differently cook for longer on each side. Once cooked, let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes. Once meat has rested, cut meat to the desired size of strips then place it into a bowl. Boil the remainder of the marinade then place into the bowl with the meat. Mix the marinade and meat. Warm up tortillas on the stove then prepare your tacos. I typically have Carne Asada Tacos with cilantro, onion and salsa. However, Anthony doesn't like onion or cilantro, so I served my tacos with cheese and salsa, but you can serve your tacos however you like. I don't have the link to the original recipe, but I'm sure if you look it up on Tasty it will pop up! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Trying to keep my diet healthy and full of protein I've been looking up recipes on Pinterest. I came across this recipe for Greek Yogurt Egg Salad, and decided to give it a try.
Here is what you will need: 2 Large eggs; hard-boiled ½ cup plain non-fat greek yogurt ¼ tsp onion powder 2 tsp garlic powder Salt and pepper to taste Directions: Start by making your eggs. I turn on the stove to high until boiling. I then turn off heat, cover pot with a lid and let steam for 18 minutes. Once eggs are done, place them in an ice bath for 10-15 minutes. Chop your eggs up and add them to a bowl. Mix all the ingredients well and serve on bread or a warmed up Pita. I was hesitant on how it would taste because Plain Greek Yogurt has a distinct taste, but to my surprise, it didn't taste bad. I especially liked that it was hearty enough to keep me full! If you are like me and are trying to have a high protein diet, maybe give this recipe a try? As usual, if you do try it show me pictures. (I forgot to take a picture of mine...) but please show me yours! Use the hashtag #MyHeartBeatsNM on social media. Original recipe found at https://www.recipe-diaries.com/healthier-egg-salad/ |
