   VEGGIE FAJITAS or CHICKEN FAJITAS

   {Slice green bell pepper, red bell pepper, onion and some garlic and sautee in a little oil over medium heat. I like to add portabella mushrooms too! Add in a touch of your fave salsa and continue to sautee until soft.
   Have flour tortillas – sour cream – salsa – cilantro – and cheese for topping.
   And a side of 1/2 mashed black beans spiced up with cayenne, salt and pepper, and some salsa.}
