I did alter the recipe a bit based on what I had on hand at home. I love recipes with wiggle room where you can adjust them to meet your needs.
I love finding and trying new recipes but I have to be honest, I'm not very good at following directions exactly as they are written. I haven't had too many epic fails so I don't see that changing anytime soon.
Substitutions/Additions made by Cooking After Class for Chicken Fajita Pasta:
- used rotisserie chicken so I didn't season the chicken since it was already cooked
- substituted plain greek yogurt for sour cream
- used 3 peppers...bought a pack of yellow, red, and orange so I used them all...the more veggies the better
Tips from Cooking After Class for making Chicken Fajita Pasta:
- you could easily make this a vegetarian dish by eliminating the chicken and adding in some black beans instead
Effort: Quick and Easy
Time: 30 minutes
Kids Comments: Tastes just like fajitas but with pasta instead
