Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas

It's always fun to figure out a way to make our favorite things easier. I make slow cooker tacos all the time so why not fajitas? I used chicken for these but you could use beef or a chicken/beef combo. I also used my homemade fajita seasoning but a store bought packet works, too. Really good, really simple and an all-around family pleasing meal!
