Steak Tacos are a family friendly dinner that's easy to make. You can throw everything on the grill for a no mess meal.

Taco night is popular at our house. My kids adore them, and I love the fact that everyone can make their own. There are no complaints about too many tomatoes or too little cheese. I just set up several bowls of fixings and everyone does their own assembling.

My eleven year old son is a picky eater, but he likes the main staples like grilled steak or chicken. Tacos are something we eat once a week because you can always change what’s in them. You can never have too many taco nights.

My family loves a grilled meal in the summer and there is nothing better than the aroma of steak on a grill. Pair it up with some fresh veggies, soft four tortillas and you have one great meal.

I have been to many steak restaurants where they serve crispy little onions on the steak. I decided to add some canned fried onions to our steak tacos. It took things to a whole new level. The texture was great and it added some extra flavor. My son won’t eat them but the three other people in my household gobbled them up.

These steak tacos were made with a sirloin cut, but London Broil would work well too. I served the tacos with store bought salsa but next time, I might make some chicken tacos with pineapple salsa.  Homemade fish sticks are another big taco ingredient at our house. The possibilities are endless.
