Ingredients

  • 2-3 large portobello mushrooms stems removed, gills spooned out if desired, sliced about 1/3-inch thick
  • 2 bell peppers thinly sliced
  • 1 onion thinly sliced
  • 1 Tbsp taco seasoning use oil-free or homemade as desired

  • Add the sliced peppers and onion to the skillet and cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes until they begin to soften.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and 1 Tbsp taco seasoning to the skillet, stir to combine, and cook for another 7–8 minutes until the mushrooms and peppers are softened, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice, taste and add salt if desired, then remove from heat.
  • Warm the corn tortillas if desired, then spoon the fajita mixture into the center of each tortilla and top with your choice of avocado, guacamole, salsa, vegan cheese, vegan sour cream, or nutritional yeast.
