Notes

  • If you don't have leftover chicken, then you can fry up some small chopped chicken breasts.
  • You can use store bought fajita seasoning if you don't want to make your own.
  • Give these a green veggie boost by added some chopped spinach at the same time as the cheese.
  • Use flour tortillas rather than corn, as there are more pliable.
