Five Ingredient Friday: Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas

October 4, 2013 By LowCarbOneDay

This content will be shown before all post

Today I am sharing a easy recipe for Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas.  These are great served in lettuce wraps or over roasted mushrooms.  Feel free to add any topping that you have on hand, like: grass fed cheese, sour cream, guacamole, or pico de gallo.

Let’s face it…we’re all busy.  Making good decisions in regards to our diets can often be clouded by the fact that our time is limited.  Every Friday I will share with you a recipe or technique that uses 5 Ingredients or fewer.  The idea is to show you recipes that are easy to prepare and versatile for all of us that don’t have time to whip up a complicated meal during the week.

The recipes will include 5 ingredients or fewer, but there are a few ingredients that are considered “free” ingredients that you probably use every day and are already in your kitchen.  The “free” items are water, salt, black pepper, and cooking oil.  These items may be used in recipes and won’t count toward the ingredient total.  I will also include some optional items that would be great to add if you have them on hand but you don’t need to make a special trip to the store if you’re all out.
