Ingredients

Serves: 2

  • 1 tbsp. Coconut Oil
  • 2 bell peppers (sliced)
  • 1 white onion (sliced)
  • 4 Portobello mushrooms (sliced)
  • Fajita seasoning spices: ½ tsp. paprika, 1 tsp. chilli powder, ½ tsp. garlic powder, ½ tsp. cumin
  • 1 tbsp. soy sauce
  • Good handful pickled and sliced jalapeño peppers
  • 6 small whole wheat tortillas

Optional toppings:

  • Guacamole
  • Tomato salsa

Method

1. Heat a large pan on a medium to high heat. Drop in the coconut oil, then once it has melted, add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Fry for 8-10 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften, then stir through the spices and fry for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2. Add the Portobello mushrooms and soy sauce to the mixture and fry until browned – this should take around 4-6 minutes.

3. Once browned, warm the tortillas in the oven for 5-10 minutes or in the microwave on full power for 30 seconds. Fill the tortillas with your Portobello fajita mix, and top with jalapeño peppers, guacamole and salsa. Perfection.
