Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas

After I was done preparing a batch of slow cooker freezer meals, I was left with three chicken breasts that I needed to use up. Now three chicken breasts is not enough to serve my larger family when eaten whole but I knew I could come up with a tasty recipe that would use them up as part of a larger meal.

So, I decided to make some shredded chicken fajitas to use those breasts up and the recipe came out SO good.

My children are not into super spicy food, so I keep the peppers to a minimum. But the great thing with this recipe is that it is easy to add or subtract ingredients to suit your what YOUR family will eat.

I used my 5 quart slow cooker, but this recipe should work in a slow cooker that is a little bit smaller or larger too.

I served the fajitas with a side of Mexican rice and refried beans and had plenty of toppings for everyone to add to their fajitas like sour cream, guacamole, lettuce, diced tomatoes, salsa, etc.
