My son Pootie had been asking me for weeks to make one of his favorite meals and that’s Chicken Fajitas. Today I had some extra time, so I remembered that this was a quick and tasty meal, so I got to cooking. He instantly could smell what I was cooking and got very excited! This is one of those meals that’s so easy to cook and your whole family will love. It’s a bit messy while you’re eating it but trust me, it’s definitely something that your kids would want more of.
Once I prepped everything with things I already had in my panty and fridge, it literally took about 20 minutes, that’s it. I love all the flavors and bright colors from the vegetables. It’s pretty simple to make if you are not one to like to be in the kitchen too. I added a side of yellow rice and in a snap, lunch was served! More pics and ingredients inside, have a beautiful day everyone!
