EASY CROCKPOT CHICKEN FAJITAS

Slice peppers and onions then place them on the bottom of the crock pot Put Chicken on top of peppers and onions Sprinkle taco seasoning on the top Cook on low for 6-8 hrs (or high for 3-4) The chicken looks burnt but it’s just crispy. Shred everything up and mix in the juice. Serve with tortillas and all the toppings – sour cream, guacamole, cheese, lettuce, etc.

This is one of the many  recipes online for  crock pot fajitas. They were so  easy and really good. I liked the lightness of the sauce as opposed to cooking in salsa...   I especially liked these wrapped  in corn tortillas and sprinkled with a little cheese. Some of  my family liked them over rice. The link for this recipe is here.
