Aaaahhh mexican food. It is one of my favorite foods. These steak tacos are quick and easy- and they don’t heat up the house!! Just grill up some steak and add your favorite toppings. I love easy, especially when you have to take care of a newborn. Yep we had our little girl at the end of May and she is so precious. So I don’t want to spend a lot of time slaving in the kitchen when I could be holding my little one. They get so big so fast. I like to top these tacos with pico de gallo and avocado but feel free to use whatever toppings you like best. Add a side of rice and you have it made.
