Notes

If there is excess liquid from the slow cooker, drain the liquid into a saucepan and bring it to a simmer over medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until the liquid begins to reduce.  This will create a flavorful and delicious sauce you can top your fajitas with!
Serve these fajitas with one of our salsa recipes or guacamole recipes for added flavor!
