Onion Fajitas for One (because you’ll smell so much after no one will be your friend)

What Runners Eat

2 Jan

Hello from my fam’s! I stopped by this afternoon because I had a doctor’s appointment in the area.

chilling with my dogs (408x544)

It was just another one of my hypochondriac attacks. I think I’ll survive. (If I don’t someone take care of my cat…)

bleed my own blood (376x501)

But they made me bleed my own blood. Not cool.

Lunch was the usual randomness:

salad beast (668x501)

Plus a Quest Bar of course.

I bought chicken fajitas on super sale today and thought I scored. I love fajitas but prefer someone else do the chopping sometimes, ya know?

Anyway. Joke’s on me because it ended up being Onion Fajitas. It was seriously 86% onion, one bell pepper and a few scraps of chicken.

Better combat that bad breathe with some mint, as in Peppermint Bark!

    Your cat is so cute. Send him (her?) to me if you don’t survive your attacks 🙂

    I am the biggest blood drawing wimp EVER. I make them let me lay down and I cover my head with a sweatshirt. It’s not a pretty sight. Even looking at that picture is making me cringe. Eeeeeee!

    Everyday I see your salads and think to myself “I should eat those more often”. Then I don’t, them I’m reminded again the next day, it’s a vicious cycle! Ha! Thanks for the constant reminder, one of these day’s I’ll take up salad eating@

    My little sister used to put swimming goggles on when she would cut onions lol. Reason #492 why I don’t have to TELL people that my family is weird.

    My dinner last night was also onion. One giant onion, a few leftover baby portabellas and some tofu (covered in Sriracha). But like 99% onion and I am A-OK with that.

    Those onion fajitas look great! Who cares if you have onion breath – that’s what the peppermint bark is for.

    Yummm Peppermint Bark! I think that is the best way to end any day 🙂 I don’t really like watching when my blood is being taken either but I also like to know when they are going to do it so I always end up watching! haha

    I’m willing to bet my garlic breath is worse than your onion. LOL. Pass over the candy! 🙂

    I agree, I can’t watch them take blood from myself, let alone take a picture. I love fajitas, I make them stove top all the time. It doesn’t take long to chop it all up. I throw it into a pan and sprinkle it with seasonings.

    Haha agh I hate when those packages of pre-chopped fajitas are super unbalanced! They always have like no chicken compared to other stuff!

    And you’re really brave for being able to take that blood drawing picture…I couldn’t stomach doing that to myself!

    And here I thought you had a recipe for Visalia onion wraps! Or maybe I like onions like a freak!? Ha.

    Peppermint bark? Chocolate and mint, perfection!
