From our skinny table to yours ...

Doesn't everything taste better in a lettuce wrap? One of our favorite skinny substitutions is swapping out bread for a cool, crunchy lettuce wrap!

Tonight we're having steak fajitas! Our version doubles up the veggies, holds the tortilla (& the calories) and adds a creamy avocado topping. You can certainly make these with chicken or shrimp but we like to keep the hubs happy & make steak every once in a while. And this recipe is a guilt free way to indulge!

When having steak, just make sure to get a lean cut of meat and trim away any visible fat to cut the calories and keep it as healthy as possible.

And with all the calories you'll save by cutting out the tortilla, feel free to pair this one with a refreshing margarita :) As always, just double check the calorie count in your favorite brand. We love a Skinnygirl Margarita which only has 110 calories per serving!

Hope you enjoy this one!
