Weight Watchers Beef Fajitas with Spicy Coleslaw




1 Tablespoon fajita seasoning
1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
½ lb beef round, trimmed and made into bite size pieces
1 (10 oz) package coleslaw mix OR 6 cups shredded cabbage
1-2 Tablespoons pickled jalapeno peppers+1 Tablespoon pickled juice
1 Tablespoon cider vinegar
4 green onions, chopped
2 Tablespoons chopped cilantro
8 (6 inch) whole-wheat tortillas
1 teaspoon olive oil or canola oil

1. Prepare marinade, combine the fajita seasoning, lime juice, and garlic in a ziploc bag; add beef. Squeeze out the air and seal bag tightly; turn to coat the beef. Let stand at least 10 minutes or refrigerate, turning bag occasionally, up to 2 hours. Drain marinade.

2. To prepare coleslaw: combine coleslaw/cabbage, jalapenos, and pickling juice, vinegar, green onions, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Set aside.

3. Meanwhile, heat the tortillas according to package directions; keep warm.

4. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and saute until cooked through, 2-3 minutes.

5. To serve, place about ¾ cup of coleslaw mix into each tortilla and top immediately with beef, roll to enclose.

Yields: 4 (2 tacos each)
