Fajitas
What could be a more family friendly than fajitas?
Considered as a part of the 'Tex-Mex' style cuisine, this delicious
family favorite is said to have developed from a humble beginning
in South and West Texas. In the 1930's, during cattle roundups,
beef were butchered regularly to feed the hands. Throwaway items
such as the hide, the head, the entrails, and meat trimmings such
as skirt were given to the Mexican vaqueros (cowboys) as part of
their pay. Hearty border dishes like barbacoa de cabeza (head
barbecue), menudo (tripe stew), and fajitas/arracheras (grilled
skirt steak) have their roots in this practice.
No longer made with scraps, this dish, consisting of strips of
marinated meat, poultry, or vegetables that are seasoned to taste
and served in a tortilla can be topped any way you like!
Commonly served with sour cream, grated cheese, salsa, and
guacamole they are as fun to make as they are to eat!
When chosen as one of your menu selections, the meats and
vegetables will be prepared in portion sizes applicable to your
family and frozen for your convenient use on Fajita Night!
This is sure to become a popular dish for all ages!
