I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of

Carne Asada w/Passionfruit

I can hear the screaming already about the passionfruit. And look, I always say most of my recipes are a 'guide', and you can change them to suit you (see note). But the passionfruit, while definitely sounding weird, is a a most delicious addition. So I say go for it.

NOTE: While I don't mind you messing with most of my recipes - certain ones should be made exactly as written. For example, my Cap'n Crunch Tuna, while also sounding bizzare, wouldn't be the same if for example, you change the cereal to something less weird sounding. So don't.
