Ingredients:
- 2 portabella mushrooms
- 4 bell peppers (any color)
- 2 onions
- 1 romaine lettuce
- 4 tortillas
- Optional garnishments: sour cream, salsa, avocado
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Vegetables: Begin by slicing the bell peppers and onions into thin strips. Slice the portabella mushrooms into bite-sized pieces.
-
Sauté the Peppers and Onions: Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, which should take about 5 minutes.
-
Add Mushrooms: Once the peppers and onions are slightly tender, add the sliced portabella mushrooms to the skillet. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and browned.
-
Season the Mixture: Pour 1/3 cup of water into the skillet, and add the fajita seasoning. Stir well to combine, ensuring that the seasoning evenly coats the vegetables and mushrooms. Let the mixture simmer for a few minutes until the water has reduced and the flavors meld together.
-
Prepare the Tortillas: While the fajita mixture is simmering, warm the tortillas according to package instructions or on a hot, dry skillet for a few seconds on each side until pliable.
-
Assemble the Fajitas: Lay out the warmed tortillas and place a handful of romaine lettuce in the center of each. Spoon a generous portion of the mushroom and vegetable mixture over the lettuce.
-
Roll and Serve: Roll up the tortillas to enclose the filling. If desired, top with optional garnishments such as sour cream, salsa, and avocado for extra flavor.
