Make Dinner:
Start by chopping the raw, flat iron steak into bite size pieces. This is called "Carne Picada". If you are lucky enough to purchase the beef already chopped, this will save some time. Add 2 Tbsp. coconut oil to a large skillet (cast iron skillets work best, but anything will do). Once the oil is melted, add the beef and Old Bay seasoning and saute until brown and slightly crispy.
While the beef is cooking, add pinto beans and garlic salt to a medium saucepan and heat through.
In a separate skillet, heat coconut oil, onions and peppers and saute until peppers are golden and onions are soft.
Warm tortillas in the microwave on a plate covered with plastic wrap.
To make tacos, fill each tortilla with a Tablespoon of beans, 2 Tablespoons of beef and top with veggies and Red Salsa with Avocado and a Hint of Lime (recipe below).
