Ingredients

  • 1 red bell pepper sliced and seeds removed
  • 1 orange bell pepper sliced and seeds removed
  • 1 yellow bell pepper sliced and seeds removed
  • 1/2 red onion sliced
  • 5 oz. shiitake mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

Add:

  • 15 oz. black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 6 flour tortillas
  • guacamole optional
  • sour cream optional
  • cilantro optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • Add the bell peppers, onion and mushrooms to a large bowl, then pour in the olive oil, coconut aminos and lime juice and stir to combine. To that same bowl, sprinkle in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and garlic powder and again, stir to combine.
  • Pour veggies onto a large baking sheet. Bake them for 20 minutes until softened, tossing halfway through.
  • While the vegetables are baking, prep the rest of the ingredients: add the black beans and chili powder to a small saucepan and heat until warm. Chop the cilantro and heat the tortillas (I usually heat mine directly on the stove, but you can also heat them in a skillet).
  • Last, assemble the fajitas: Spread some guacamole or sour cream on the tortillas, then place the vegetables on top, along with the beans and cilantro. Enjoy!
