I absolutely love pretty much any kind of Mexican food.  So when I came across this recipe, I was stoked.  It’s super easy and can be served as either an appetizer, snack, or meal!  (I made it a dinner!)

Chicken Fajita Bites (a modification of a Pampered Chef recipe)

4 medium bell peppers, any color

3 green onions

1/4 cup fresh style salsa (with cilantro, chunky tomato, onion–pico de gallo style)

1/2 cup part-skim shredded cheese (any kind really)

Approx. 2 cups finely diced cooked chicken breast

1/3 cup  fat-free mayonnaise

2 tbsp chipotle or chili lime seasoning 

Fat-free sour cream for topping

Preheat oven to 400°F.  Cut off tops of peppers and scoop out seeds.  Wedge peppers into slices and arrange them on a baking tray or dish. Cut up and mix all the rest of yoru ingredients, minus the sour cream, in a bowl together.  Use a spoon and scoop this filling into your pepper wedges.  Bake 5–7 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with sour cream when you serve.

These are awesome and just 50 tiny calories per wedge!  I served with black bean mexi corn and some fruit.  We really liked them!
