Asian Inspired Street Tacos with Marinated Skirt Steak, Avocado Slaw and Fresh Mango

The Falcons are in the playoffs again and I am ready to kick off 2018 with new recipes that incorporate more flavor and healthy food (I think I say that every year).  Here is a recipe that uses a lot of ingredients but most of them are in your fridge or pantry already.  The skirt steak is so tender after being marinaded overnight (if you are organized enough to think a day ahead....I am usually not so a few hours will work.)  The fresh ginger is my favorite flavor in this dish and I usually add the leftover to a morning beet and pineapple smoothie (stay tuned for recipe).  Overall this dish is quick and easy to make and would be great for a weeknight dinner!
