haha, what's so hard, some lean meat, and some salsa... maybe a "FEW" corn tortillas.

Lean thinly-cut meat grilled, or pan-cooked with just a smidge of olive oil. Keep the salt to a minimum, and just enjoy the flavor of the beef. On the side, a nice pico de gallo (dices tomato, onion, cilantro and jalapeno -- if you like the heat). Guacamole is always good on the side too.

Good grief, I'm getting hungry now...

nothing is hard about it, i just want to help her make something new, seeing as she just cooks it and serves it with a side. its noce to try something exciting with a plain dish every once in a while.
