I can remember the very first time I had a steak fajita. It was at a T.G.I.Friday’s way back in the 80’s. I vividly recall the steaming hot, sizzling plate making its way over to my table. Oh, how delightful those colorful mounds of peppers, guacamole, sour cream and salsa were. A make your own meal bursting with delightfully spicy, creamy, crunchy and savory flavors…YUM! While I have not dined at a TGIF’s in decades, I still have the occasional craving for this delightful treat. Check out my more healthful version below.
