Budget Friendly Meal: Homemade Chicken Fajitas

I just had to share my dinner tonight with you guys. We had homemade Chicken Fajitas! There is a total 4 people in my family and this made enough for each of us to have two VERY FULL fajitas.

Here's the recipe:

• 1/2 Yellow Onion*
• 1 whole Red pepper*
• 1 whole Green bell pepper*
• 2 pkts. precooked chicken
• 1 pkt. fajita seasoning
• 1 pkg. burrito shells
• 1pkg. shredded cheddar cheese (if desired..we omit)
• *you can add as much or as little as you desire*

Brown the chicken in a skillet until lightly golden brown. Add the onion/pepper mixture to the chicken and sautee for 5-8 mins or until the pepper/onion is soft. Add fajita seasoning and cook for 2-3 more minutes. Heat burrito shells in microwave for about 20-30 seconds. Assemble and enjoy!

Now, here's what made it so budget friendly:

• Burrito Shells $2.19 for pk. of 16


• Red & Green pepper $1.32 from local farmers market


• 2 pks. precooked chicken (Perdue brand) 2/$5 from Foodlion and I used 2- $.75/1 q's
  
• Onion $.79/lb from Foodlion (mine was $.45--only 1/2lb)

• Ortega Fajita Seasoning $0.00 (free from 3 triple events ago)

Grand total: $7.43 for a family of 4!!!

Total per serving (makes 8): $.93!!!
