Chances are you have probably heard of chicken fajitas before so no need to explain their origin, however if you take out the dairy they are relatively high in protein and nutrition. The guacamole has avocados which are high in good fats that lower your blood pressure, act as an anti-inflammatory and reduces your cholesterol; and therefore your risk of heart disease. Chicken breast is a great source of lean protein while the onions are great at regulating blood pressure and providing you with your daily dose of Vitamin C. Tomatoes are full of antioxidants and are known to help reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer and and diabetes! Sounds pretty good right! What's not to like. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS:
Guacamole
2 Avocados
1/4 Cup of Red Onion (Chopped)
1 Clove of Garlic

Pre-made salsa
Fajitas

* I did not add this item but it's not uncommon, you do you.
DIRECTIONS:
Mix/mash you avocados then add in your onions and garlic and keep mashing/mixing. Add in your desired level of salt, pepper and lime juice. - Guacamole done!
Using a large saute pan, add oil and let it warm up on the stove on medium heat. Next add in your chicken strips, season with salt and pepper. Once they are nearly cooked through add in your onions and any other vegetables you like. Let that cook and allow the chicken to absorb the juices from the vegetables until chicken is fully cooked through and until the vegetables become soft. Apx 10-15 minutes.
5 minutes before the chicken is done you can put some tortillas in the oven to warm up. Place them in the over and turn the oven on bake at 350. No need to wait for it to preheat they will only be in there for two - three minutes before they are warm and ready to be taken out.
