Easy, delicious Sheet Pan Fajitas - these are a sanity saver for busy nights! #trimhealthymama #thm #lowcarb #thms #keto

Want a nicer, healthier dinner that's not too complicated?

I'm as Drive Thru Sue as they come. Honestly, working as many jobs as I do while homeschooling 5 kids keeps me feeling on the wrong side of “fancy” most days.

So our meals are generally NOT fancy, or complicated, or time-consuming – I specialize in quick, easy, and convenient with an emphasis on healthy and THM-friendly and I'm OK with that.

But every once in a while I want something that suits a sit-down family dinner a little better, and this is one of my favorites!

This recipe isn't incredibly time consuming, but it is customizable and delicious!

This one can be found in my family-friendly Easy Weekly Dinner Meal Plans, and although it's fairly simple it's a family favorite!

First you'll mix up the seasonings and marinade the steak:

Then you'll slice the steak against the grain and set it aside.

Take a few minutes to slice some bell peppers and onions…

Then toss the veggies and steak on a baking sheet, and stick it in the oven!

OK, maybe don't toss it. That doesn't sound fun to clean up. Lovingly place it on a baking sheet and gently tuck the baking sheet into the oven. (Too much?)

Mmmmm…fajitas! You can serve them in low-carb tortillas with sour cream, cheese, sliced avocado, and salsa.

OR (as the THM Coach in me feels obligated to point out) you could skip the dairy and the low-carb tortilla and just pile up the yummy steak and veggies over chopped lettuce with some salsa and avocado and make it a little more slimming. Either way, it's delicious!

My kids don't need to eat low-carb meals, so I'll often heat up a can of black beans with a tablespoon of cumin and a teaspoon of chili powder for them to have on the side, making this recipe a crossover. I make black beans like that several times a week to round out our meals – it honestly just takes a few minutes and it's delicious. That makes this the perfect meal for growing kids, and a wonderful S for me without the beans!
