LEFTOVER CHICKEN OR BEEF FAJITAS WITH FRESH GUACAMOLE



Leftover Chicken or Beef Fajitas With Fresh Guacamole image

I used leftover Recipe #226934 in this. If your leftover chicken meat isn't very Mexican tasting, you might want to rub it with some cumin powder & chile powder first, or even some Mexican seasoning.
