sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: creme fraiche

Greek yogurt provides similar creaminess with fewer calories.

tortillas

🥗Healthier: lettuce wraps

💰Cheaper: store-bought tortillas

Lettuce wraps lower carbs, while store-bought options save time.

guacamole

💰Cheaper: mashed avocado

Mashed avocado is simpler and can be more cost-effective.

Marinate flank steak with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and fresh thyme for about 10 minutes.

Slice bell pepper and onion for fajitas.

Heat olive oil in a pan and add sliced onions and bell peppers; cook for 3-4 minutes, adding a little salt and a splash of white wine at the end.

Preheat the grill to medium-high and grease the grates with coconut oil.

Grill the marinated flank steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until medium rare, brushing with butter for flavor.

Let the grilled steak rest for 2 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Heat corn tortillas on the grill for a few seconds until warm.

Assemble tacos with sliced steak, fajitas, cheese, avocado, and verde salsa, or serve in butter leaf lettuce for a healthier option.
