SLOW COOKER FAJITA STEW



Slow Cooker Fajita Stew image

This is a great departure from the typical chicken taco soup for when I want a healthier mexican flavored dish. The tomatoes, please use your best judgement on the type of tomatoes -- I have used both the rotel tomatoes and just plain tomatoes depending on what's on hand :D But use them to the taste of your family. This is a chunky stew with a thin broth -- not thick like a chowder. Also I like to use Kathy's Recipe #28011 for the fajita seasoning! Mmmm love it! :D
