A great tip for weight loss without a diet is this. Eat home cooked meals at least five days a week. Then you will be living like a thin person. A consumer reports survey reported that this was the top habit of successful weight losers.

Cooking doesn't have to be difficult. Shortcut foods like pre-chopped lean beef for fajitas, washed lettuce, pre-chopped veggies, canned beans, cooked chicken strips or grilled deli salmon. Information taken from emedicinehealth.

But come on, how hard is it to pull out your french cutlery knife from your kitchen cutlery and curveup the lean beef, chop the veggies and wash the lettuce? No matter! Eat healthy, and cook healthy like the waterless cookware techniques, barbecue or at least fry with olive oil. Exercise modestly and enjoy life.

Steak Fajitas are done many different ways. I'm going to share how my wife Silvia does it.I didn't like the recipes that I looked at and mi amor de mi vida Silvia's is great.
Ingredients:
3-4 garlic cloves crushed
1 cupchicken boullion
I like squeezed lime juice (limon verde in my house)
2 pounds steak ranchero (flank steak)
2-3 assorted colored bell peppers sliced thin
1 large white onion
2 garlic cloveds crushed
2 medium tomatoes cut in wedges like eighths
12-14 tortillas flour or corn(we use corn)warmed
guacamole or mashed avocados
a good salsa casera(my wife makes her own salsa)

The top ingredients are mixed for the marinade. That is the 3-4 crushed garlic cloves, chicken boullion, lime juice, ground pepper to taste and the steak is placed in the bowl with it and turned to coat. Marinate several hours or overnight.
The steak is barbecued on your barbecue grill and cooked until done, about 8-10 minutes. Turn the steak once half way through cooking with your thongs from your barbecue grill accessories. I tend to turn several times to avoid charring. Remove from heat and set aside.
If you don't have a barbecue grill then with a very small amount of olive oil, fry the steak in your stainless steel frying pan of appropriate size. Cook for 4 minutes on each side and turn with your kitchen accessories.
In an appropriate Stainless steel frying pan add a little boullion and pepper to taste and fry the onions and bell peppers and 1 crushed garlic clove for about 2 minutes and set aside in a bowl. Then fry the tomatoes in same pan until soft. Then slice the steak in thin slices and add steak, peppers and onions with the tomatoes and serve it up. Serve with the warm tortillas, salsa, and guacamole or mashed avocados. Great with a nice salad and cerveza (beer) or a nice dry red wine. Enjoy life!
