You can try making the Best Flour Tortilla Recipe  if you have a few extra minutes.  Corn tortillas would also be yummy.

We also like these handy tortilla warmers. They are awesome because you heat up your tortillas in 45 seconds in the microwave and then they are warm for an hour.

If you have a big family like I do, these are especially handy to keep several warm at once. That is nice so no one in the family has cold tortillas with their dinner.

The chicken and bell peppers are delicious served over rice. Make it even quicker and learn how to freeze rice and you can make this meal even simpler. Diced tomatoes are also delicious with this mixture.

I love to grab the rice from the freezer in the morning and when we come home it is all ready to reheat and serve with this the steak.

We love making our own fajita seasoning. 

If you are like us and use a ton of fajita seasoning, stop buying those packets and make your own.

My family used to buy them but we finally started making our own at home. The cost of these packets can add up over time and really you are paying for convenience in a package.

I think it is so much better to make your own so you know everything that is in it. You won’t find any hard to pronounce ingredients in this homemade version.

It is so easy and the seasoning works great in recipes. It is so easy and has tons of flavor.

    This cooking method worked out really well. I normally use a George Foreman grill for fajitas, but not anymore! I used a fajita marinade recipe rather than fajita spice. Added the garlic and substituted parsley for cilantro. Chicken turned out moist and delicious. I used 2 sheet pans.

    Does everything go on one sheet? Sounds like two sheets?
