Taco Tuesday – Beef Stir Fry Tacos

We are always exited when the weekend comes around is the time we get to chill, relax, drink, eat and party till we drop! But when Monday comes around is like a Mack truck hit you and knocked you upside the head. But no worries my friends because there’s one day before hump day that we greatly named Taco Tuesdays. But I understand that some of you don’t want to relive your crazy partying weekend and spend money or go to some bar/cantina where you don’t have the slightest idea where in the hell they got their ingredients and is it safe to eat. Unless you are passed your tipsy point then by all means eat at your own risk.  We came up with a quick less than 20 minutes stir fry beef taco recipe for those who just want to stay on the chill mode at home. So here we go…

(Serving for 2)

• ½ lb of beef stir fry
• ¼ of olive oil
• 3 tbsp of fajita seasoning
• 1 tbsp of sea salt
• 2 tbsp of garlic powder
• ½ cup of chopped fresh cilantro
• 4 slices of Vidalia onion chopped
• ½ cup of Rotel tomatoes with green chillies
• 1 hass avocado diced
• 1½ cup of chopped lettuce
• 2 cups of taco blend cheese
• 6 6” flour tortillas

First prepare all your ingredients such as chopping the lettuce, cilantro, onions, sliced avocados and tomatoes. (Note: we suggest to use Rotel chopped tomatoes with green chilies. This will cut your preparation in half). Season the beef stir fry with fajita seasoning, sea salt and garlic powder. In a stir fry pan or frying pan heat up the olive oil and cook the beef on medium high stirring for about 10 minutes or until beef turns dark. (Note: if you like your beef medium just cook the beef for 5 minutes on medium high). While the beef is cooking heat up the tortillas in a small toaster oven for 5 minutes or on another frying pan. After you cook the beef turn off the stove and let the meat rest for a minute.

Assemble taco with beef, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, avocado and cheese. Serve immediately.

Pair your taco with an amber ale beer- Bell’s Amber is a great choice. It has enough hop bitterness to help combat all that thick guacamole and resonates with slightly sweet tomato and cilantro.
