Sunday Dinner

Happy Sunday! Every Sunday we share a recipe so you can cook along with us.

Steak Fajitas with Charred Avocados

Hey friends,

If you want a dinner that feels fun and full of flavor, fajita night is always the answer.

This version starts with a honey, cumin, chili, and garlic rub that transforms simple sliced steak into something deeply savory and just a little sweet. A hot cast iron pan gives you that irresistible sear and all the flavor that comes with it.

Then we level it up with charred avocados. You do not need a grill to get that smoky edge, your broiler is your best friend here. A touch of honey and a few minutes of high heat turn ripe avocados into creamy, caramelized perfection with those beautiful dark edges.

Pile everything into warm tortillas add add whatever toppings you love, and let everyone build their perfect bite. Easy enough for a weeknight, but exciting enough for Sunday.
