Instructions for fajitas:

Mix the lime juice, orange juice, vinegar, cayenne and black pepper and brown sugar. Add the oil and chopped cilantro. Pour over fajita strips and marinate for one hour to overnight.

Grill fajita strips or saute in a non-stick skillet with a little oil.

While cooking fajitas, heat flour tortillas tightly wrapped in foil in a 300-degree oven for 10 minutes.

For each fajita, spread a layer of guacamole over a warm flour tortilla. Place several fajita strips and sauteed bell peppers in center of tortilla; top with picante sauce and roll up.

Guacamole:

Mash avocado well; add other ingredients.

Sauteed bell peppers and onion: Saute bell peppers and onion in oil until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar, salt and sugar.
