2 1/2 lb skirt steak, trimmed, and

1 tbsp canola oil
1 green bell pepper, cut thin strips
1 red bell pepper, cut thin strips
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
12 controlled-carb flour tortillas
3/4 cup green salsa

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat canola oil. Cook bell

Money may be the husk of many things, but not the kernel. It brings you food, but not appetite; medicine, but not health; acquaintance,
but not friends; servants, but not loyalty; days of joy, but not peace or happiness.
