    Yum! I just used what I had in fridge and it worked! Chicken, bell-peppers and some cheese. Super easy!

    I don’t understand why you use flour tortillas. Corn is better for fajitas?! But the chicken was okay.

    I followed the recipe exactly, but it turned out way too spicy for my kids. Maybe needs less chili powder.
