These fajitas are a great way to use up leftover meat. I always have leftover chicken or beef in my fridge, so this is a great recipe to use it up.

The tortillas that I used were a little too thick. I think I'll use thinner tortillas next time.

These fajitas were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I substituted them with onions. The fajitas were still delicious!

These fajitas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
