A dollop of sour cream zhuzhed up with beet and lime adds even more flavor.
Look for precooked beets in the produce department of your grocery store.
For pretty snap pea slices, cut them into long, thin strips.

Enjoy it with a warm baguette or steamed rice.
Eggs are the base of the creamy sauce.
They don’t get fully cooked, so use pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs if you prefer.

Cauliflower Fajita Skillet
Thinly sliced cauliflower florets mimic the signature shape of fajita meat in this dish.
We cook it in a cast-iron skillet for that tableside sizzle you’d get at a restaurant.
