I am sorry. I did not like this. When I opened the crockpot when I got home and stirred it, it turned out like a stew. Maybe it cooked way too long. I just did not think it had enough flavor. Thank you however, for sharing your recipe.

This was outstanding! My whole family loved it and I loved how easy it was. It would make a good topping for nachos too. Oh...I did use beer in place of the water but followed it exactly otherwise. Thanks for an easy and yummy fajita recipe!

This was great with and without toppings! A tasty, colorful dish that I'm sure we'll make again. Toppings we used were lite sour cream and pico de gallo. Yum!
