Venison Fajitas image

I found this recipe in an old issue of TOH magazine, and since I have a freezer full of venison, thought I would give it a try. It was a huge hit with the whole family! You can add all kinds of yummy stuff to this. The original poster was Daniell Rissinger. The prep time includes the time for marinading.
