Which Came First?

Today is National Fajita Day. And that brings me to the burning questions – which came first? Was it the Chicken Fajita or the Steak Fajita? And as long as we are asking, just where did the whole Fajita concept come from in the first place?

Spicy Good Carnitas Asada Fajitas

On the National front, we’ve got two awesome days to celebrate. The first is Brave Heart Day and the other is Super Hero Day. When it comes right down to the nuts and bolts of it, they are one and the same. Super Heroes don’t always wear capes. And Brave Hearts are more than a Mel Gibson movie.

No Ordinary Grilled Chicken Fajita Foil Packs

The beauty of Grilled Foil Packs is that you can prep the pack early to cook later. Having company? Make the Fajita and Tortilla Packs in the morning, clean up the mess. Once guests arrive, toss the foil packs on the grill. By the time the first batch of Margaritas are ready, dinner is served.

Beautiful Baked Chicken Fajitas

A while back, I came across one of those one-sheet pan dinners. This one was for baked fajitas. We love fajitas. And who does not like the convenience of a dish that is all cooked up together on a single baking sheet?
