Chicken Fajitas and Avocados

One of my favorite nights out is to go eat some Mexican food with my hubby, and a good margarita!  We love fajitas, so I decided to recreate them for a Mexican night at home.  These are made with fresh ingredients, warm spices, and of course they are guilt free, I love it!
