Family friendly healthy baked fajitas

Does it sometimes seem impossible to find a meal to cook that everyone in the house will eat and enjoy!?
This is my biggest struggle!  I have three kiddos, 12, 10 and 3 years old. My 12 year old is by far the pickiest eater!  If it's healthy, chances are he won't like it.   My middle son is mostly easy to please, with just a few foods he doesn't like. And my 3 year old, well she's 3!  Therefore, one day she will love a certain food then the next day hate it. She is currently into dipping everything. It doesn't really matter what you dip it in as long as she sees you dip it. Lol

Well, today's recipe that i'm going to share with you is a hit with the WHOLE family!  I know, it's hard to believe but it's true. In fact, we have it on a regular menu rotation. And you know what else???  It's super easy, inexpensive and HEALTHY!!  BONUS!!

So without further ado, here is my recipe for Healthy Baked Chicken Fajitas:

Ingredients
Seasoning
1 Tbsp Chili powder
1/2 Tbsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp Corriander
1/8 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp Almond flour

Fajitas
1 small onion
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
1 orange pepper
1 pound chicken breast
2 Tbsp Coconut oil
1 small lime
Whole wheat tortillas
Plain nonfat Greek yogurt (healthy alternative to sour cream)
Avocado

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix all all the ingredients for the seasoning in a small bowl and set aside.
Cut the peppers and onion into strips. Place them in a 9 x 13 in casserole dish. Cut the chicken into strips and add to casserole dish.
Sprinkle the seasoning over the chicken and veggies. Drizzle coconut oil over top of that. Take your hands and mix the ingredients until everything is coated.
Bake in over for 25-30 minutes. Squeeze the lime juice over top of mixture after it comes out of oven.

Serve in tortillas, add avocado and Greek yogurt to taste!
