  3. Assemble the Fajitas:

    • Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.
    • Fill each tortilla with the mushroom and pepper mixture.
    • Top with avocado slices, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
    • Add vegan sour cream, guacamole, or salsa if desired.
  4. Serve & Enjoy:

    • Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add ¼ tsp cayenne pepper or sliced jalapeños.
  • Try adding black beans or grilled tofu for extra protein.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
