It’s been a wild week in Alabama. So many heartbreaking stories and scenes of destruction just a mile or so away. We are very lucky even though it’s 6 days and no power. Work and life continues, and I’m headed to Nashville on Friday to be on Newschannel 5 “Talk of the Town” at 11 a.m doing a sandwich show for my new book “400 Best Sandwich Recipes: From Classics & Burgers to Wraps & Condiments”. Before I go, I thought I would leave you with one of the easiest recipes for Pork Fajitas. I like to use thinly sliced pork tenderloins that can be found at the grocery store. These are thin, healthy, low-fat and cook very quickly. Happy Cinco De Mayo everyone!

I had no idea that you had been affected. My heart goes out to all those coping with this disaster. Good luck with the TV show. This looks like a great, healthy meal.
Thoughts and prayers have been with you and all those affected by last week’s storms. Good to know that your family is well.

Oh I feel so bad for you guys. 6 days without power is awful. Here’s to you for finding serenity through blogging. We need to get my scones & your fajitas together 😉 xo
This looks like a terrific weekday meal being that it is so quick. An fresh and healthy to boot! I love this, I’ll have to pick me up a tenderloin.

I’ve never made fajitas with pork before! Yours look great!
So much destruction-it’s very sad. I’m sure it’ll take a while to get some normalcy back to the area.
Love fajitas, especially with pork-it’s such a versatile meat to use!
