Chicken Pita Fajita Tacos

 

Tonight I needed to make something easy. I love tacos and I grew up eating them all the time. I was always a fan of crunchy corn taco shells. We would always make our own, since we didn’t like any of the ones from the store. Homemade shells are always better. We would eat them the same way all the time. I wanted to give a new look and taste  There are so many ways to make them, and here is one of my new takes on the great taco.

New Toys

I love having new toys for my kitchen, and I have needed a few things for a while now. There were several I got for Christmas. One of the things I got was a new griddle so I can make more things at once. I hate eating hot food cold, and by the time I get everything done I usually have at least one thing cold. The other item I needed were some new pans. I needed new non stick pans so I can start working on more healthy foods. The new pans are non stick anodized pans. They work great, and I do not have to worry about all the oil that is unnecessary. This next coming week I will be adding a Breville Panini press and grill to my collection.

Hot Dog Night

Tonight was hot dog night. Hot dogs are usually very fatty. There are brands that make healthier hot dogs. Yesterday we bought the new Tostitos Queso Blanco Dip. We decided to put it on our hot dogs instead of using regular cheese. These hot dogs had  mustard, sweet relish, Tostitos Queso Blanco Dip, green onions, and the Hebrew National 97% Fat Free Hot Dogs.  I like lots of toppings on my hot dog.
