Hi Nap Time readers! Im excited to be back with another yummy recipe for you. This time Ive got Mexican food on the brain. I recently
shared this Enchilada Casserole over at YHE, and it had quite the positive response. This tells me that Im not the only one with a Mexican
food obsession. :)

If youre like me and dread dinnertime because you know it means standing in the kitchen for hours cooking, then youre in luck today.
These easy chicken fajitas are healthy, delicious and a family favorite!

Theyre super easy to make, too!

All you do is halve and slice up three bell peppers. I like to use red, yellow, and orange. Then halve a red onion and slice the same way as
the peppers. Thinly slice three garlic cloves and then toss all together on a foil-lined baking sheet with a little olive oil and salt and pepper.

Lay out some thin chicken cutlets on another foil lined baking sheet. Rub with a little olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and chili powder
and place both sheets in the oven for about 20 minutes. Slice up the chicken and put it all together on tortillas and voila! Dinner is served!

Not only is this dinner simple, but it tastes great. The clean up is a breeze, too. Every one of my boys will eat these fajitas and thats
saying a lot! They are delicious!

I love that these are made in the oven! That makes it so easy because you can get the rest of the meal ready while they bake and have
dinner ready in no time. Beautiful photos, Jen!
