National Fajita Day is on August 18th in the United States.

The fajita is a dish found in Tex-Mex and Mexican cuisine that refers to any type of grilled meat that is served as a taco in either a flour or corn tortilla, though there are many alternatives. Though the dish originally used skirt steak, since then other cuts of beef have been used, as well as other meats, such as chicken, vegetables and seafood, especially prawns.

The filling will often be cooked with onions and bell peppers and the result is then served on a warm tortilla with other ingredients. Popular additional ingredients are grated cheese, shredded lettuce, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, diced tomatoes and refried beans. The ingredients will be arranged down the centre of the tortilla, which will then be roiled up into a wrap.
