Weight-Loss Surgery Friendly Steak Fajitas

I’m a sucker for an easy fajita recipe. I’ve made them in my microwave using my Pampered Chef Deep Covered Baker. I’ve made them in my Crockpot®. I’ve made them on the stovetop. And now….I’ve made them in the oven!

Steak, chicken, shrimp – pick your protein and go for it! I love the texture of bell peppers and onions and cooking them with the meat helps the meat to stay more moist. Plus – this ENTIRE MEAL was on one baking sheet! Helllooooo easy clean up!

Weight-loss surgery patients = focus on bite sizes with this one. Cut your steak up before you start eating and eat TWO bites of steak to everyone ONE bite of veggies. Enjoy some salsa or plain Greek yogurt for toppings.

Enjoy!
