Lime and Veggie Fajitas

June 12, 2012 by epicureanvegan

Lime and Veggie Fajitas -- Epicurean Vegan

These colorful fajitas are so quick and easy to make. If you’re like me and tired of the same old fajita seasoning packets, I think you’ll love this change up.

INGREDIENTS:
1 Tbs olive oil (I used chipotle-flavored)
1 large yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 large red bell pepper, sliced
2 C mushrooms, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
1 C fresh cilantro, chopped
Flour tortillas
Seasoning:
1/2 C lime juice
1 ts black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 tsp cumin

DIRECTIONS:
Combine the seasoning ingredients and set aside.
