We all have different ways of expressing how we feel about our loved ones. Food is my way. Food can
be beautiful, delicious, comforting, or nostalgic. Food can transport you to another land far away; it can
remind you of your childhood; or it can bring your family and friends together after a long day. If cooking
is a way that you show love, then you will adore “Steak Tacos with Charred Salsa.” This recipe is simple,
scrumptious, and healthy. You will truly impress your family and friends when you grill up this fiesta in
no time flat.
