The Easiest Fajitas Start in the Freezer Section

 
Count these one-pan fajitas as just one more delicious reason to keep a bag of frozen shrimp stocked in your freezer. You’ll pair them with a bag of pepper and onion stir-fry mix because yes, those mixed frozen veggies are good for a whole lot more than stir-frying, and it cuts down dinner prep to almost nothing.
