Vegetable Fajitas Recipes

VEGGIE FAJITAS

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, saute the vegetables with salt and pepper in oil until crisp-tender, 5-7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, place about 1/2 cup vegetable mixture down the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle each with 1/4 cup cheese; top with sour cream and salsa. Fold in sides.

THE BEST EVER VEGETARIAN FAJITAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Roast peppers & onions: arrange sliced peppers and onions on sheet pan, drizzle with oil and sprinkle with fajita seasoning. Toss until veggies are evenly coated, then spread out on the pan and bake for 20 minutes - flip halfway through.
• Cook black beans: in a sauce pan, simmer black beans on LOW with salt and garlic powder for 8-10 minutes. Black beans should thicken and liquid should slightly reduce.
• Guacamole: In a small bowl use a fork to smash the avocado, then stir in garlic powder, lime juice, and season with salt to taste. Set aside.
• Warm up tortillas: wrap tortillas in a foil packet and pop in oven for 5 minutes, or microwave tortillas on glass plate for 15 seconds. If you have a grill, you can also grill the tortillas for 10-15 seconds on each side.
• Assemble: When peppers & onions are finished, assemble fajitas: roasted peppers & onions, black beans, guacamole, and extra lime juice! Serve with fresh cilantro leaves if desired.

VEGETARIAN FAJITAS

Steps:

• To make the fajita mix, take two or three strips from each colour of pepper and finely chop them. Set aside. Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the remaining pepper strips and the onion until soft and starting to brown at the edges. Cool slightly and mix in the chopped raw peppers. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min, then add the spices and stir. Cook for a couple of mins more until the spices become aromatic, then add half the lime juice and season. Transfer to a dish, leaving any juices behind, and keep warm.
• Tip the black beans into the same pan, then add the remaining lime juice and plenty of seasoning. Stir the beans around the pan to warm them through and help them absorb any flavours of the fajita mix, then stir through the coriander.
• Warm the tortillas in a microwave or in a low oven, then wrap them so they don't dry out. Serve the tortillas with the fajita mix, beans, avocado and soured cream for everyone to help themselves.

ROASTED VEGETABLE FAJITAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450. Coat a baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, toss the eggplant with the oil to coat. Add the zucchini, bell peppers, onion, vinegar, and garlic, tossing to mix well. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Roast, uncovered, stirring once or twice, until the vegetables are tender, 25-30 minutes.
• Heat a dry large frying pan(not one with a non-stick surface) over medium heat. One at a time, heat the tortillas in the hot pan on each side until softened, about 20 seconds per side.
• To serve: divide the tortillas among individual plates. Spread an equal amount of the vegetable mixture and rice on each tortilla. Top with 1/2 tablespoon of the salsa. Fold in both sides of each trotilla up over the filling, then roll to close.

GRILLED VEGETABLE FAJITAS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the Italian dressing, chili powder and 2 tablespoons of the cilantro.
• Brush all sides of the pepper, onion, zucchini and tomato with the Italian dressing.
• Grill the vegetables over medium coals, turning once until softened, about 7 minutes for the bell pepper and onion, 5 to 7 minutes for the zucchini, and 1 to 2 minutes for the tomato.
• Wrap the tortillas in foil and warm at the edge of the grill for about 2 minutes.
• Remove vegetables from grill and place on a cutting board. Cut the peppers, squash and tomato into chunks, and separate the onion into rings.
• To serve, spread the tortillas with the guacamole, top with the vegetables, sprinkle with the cheese, roll up and dollop with the yogurt.
