Grilled Vegetable and Chicken Fajitas (Leftover Makeover!)

Leftovers tend to go very fast in my house, unless, of course, those leftovers are vegetables.

It seems like there’s always a bowl of grilled (or roasted, in winter) vegetables hanging out in my fridge. I could come up with a million and one uses for them — omelets, salads, wraps — but my boys are a whole lot pickier. I have to “hide” the veggies in their favorite foods to get their approval and these fajitas are perfect for that!

 

When I made these I had a bowl full of grilled onions, zucchini, and mushrooms needing to be used, but any vegetable you happen to have on hand would work. Yellow squash would be especially delicious, I think!

These are incredibly versatile too. Not feeling the chicken? Beef or fish would work great! Serve them with whatever toppings you love, but I think they are best with just a tiny bit of cheese and some super-spicy salsa.
