I love this dinner idea because any veggies will work.  So you can use up leftovers in the fridge.  I served mine over cooked quinoa, but you can eat it plain too.  Serving over brown rice is another option if you want to stretch the meal out more.

If you like a little more heat, you can add a jalapeno at the same time you add the bell peppers.

Mushroom and Bell Pepper Fajitas

Have I mentioned that my husband is a good cook?  This mushroom and bell pepper fajita recipe is one of his creations.  This is another one of his creations and also one of the most popular recipes on the blog.  We have been using his homemade fajita seasoning ever since I posted this recipe.  Homemade fajita seasoning is awesome because you can control the ingredients in it.  These mushroom and bell pepper fajitas came out so delicious!

Fajitas are so hard to photograph.  I did the best I could.  I hope they look yummy to you.  These fajitas are vegan and gluten free.  I topped them with my dairy free sour cream.  It’s amazing.  If you haven’t tried it, you should.  It really taste like sour cream.  Or at least what I remember sour cream to taste like. lol.  And everything is better with avocado.  Agreed?
