## Tips

- If steak is not on the budget, you can use chicken, chorizo, or ground beef.
- To make this healthier, sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top and add pico de gallo.
- Serve with salsa, fresh Pico de Gallo, or taco sauce.
- If you dislike cilantro, you can skip it and eat limes or turn them into a margarita.
