We go for a more southwestern flair here

We call these Rochell's Fajitas, because the girl who gave me the recipe was named, Rochelle! You can give them a love name. My directions are a little haphazard because I make the whole thing to taste, but you are a good enough cook, I'm sure you have fajita and pico de gallo cooking basics down.

Fajitas
Chicken cut into strips
Red, yellow and orange bell peppers, cut into strips
Onions, sliced thin
Jalapeno, to taste (we like spicy!)
fresh limes
salt and pepper to taste

brown the chicken, add the peppers and onions, keep cooking until meat is done and vegetables are tender, squirt lime juice periodically to make it jucier and yummier.

Pico de Gallo
Fresh tomatos (red and yellow are pretty together)
cilantro, chopped
peach, pear or apple, diced
mango, diced
lime juice to taste

stir it all up to resemble a chunky salsa, drown in lime juice,(once again, to taste!)

Green Sauce
a whole bunch of cilantro leaves (1-2 cups at least)
1 pint fat free sour cream
fresh onion
galric to taste
salt
1 tsp cumin
1-2 Tbl sugar
1/2-3/4 cup raw peanuts per pint sour cream
(This makes a ton of sauce, I'd 1/2 it for only 2 people, but we love this sauce poured over everything!)

liquefy everything in the food processor, keep adding above flavors until it suits your taste. (I prefer mine with a less onion flavor, more cilantro and more sugar Eye-wink

Top tortilla with meat, vegetables, Pico de gallo and green sauce.

Oops, I just remembered you eat mostly vegetarian. You probably have a lot of tricks for chicken substitutions.
