Baked Fajitas

Baked Fajitas

Yield: 4 fajitas

Fix Portions (per fajita): 1 yellow, ½ red, 1 green, ½ blue (optional)

Ingredients

• 4 whole wheat tortillas
• 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded (I poach them in water, so they shred super easy. You could also use leftover rotisserie chicken for this too)
• 1½ green container bell peppers, sliced
• 1½ green container onions, sliced
• 1 green container salsa (I recommend Pace restaurant style or the fresh Chipotle Garlic salsa available in the produce section at Target)
• 2 blue containers shredded mexican or cheddar jack cheese (optional)
• 1 tbsp each ground cumin, garlic powder, and black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400
2. In a skillet, saute onions and bell peppers. Season with garlic powder and black pepper.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, salsa, and cumin and stir well
4. Fill tortillas one at a time with vegetables and chicken. Sprinkle with ½ blue container cheese (optional).
5. Roll/fold the tortillas so that the ends are tucked in and place them in a 13x9 baking dish
6. Bake for 20 minutes and enjoy!

Bonus Ideas

• Try substituting steak or ground turkey instead of the chicken
• Make a seafood version of this dish: use a mild fish (like tilipia) or baby shrimp and mix with mango salsa for a fresh twist!
• Feel free to serve with some extra salsa, avocado/guac, shredded lettuce, and greek yogurt (sour cream substitute) on the side!
