    3. Season and simmer the black beans – while the veggies are cooking, simmer the black beans over medium heat with some vegetable stock and more fajita seasoning.

    Topping ideas for vegetarian fajitas

    Here are a few delicious topping ideas for these amazing sheet pan fajitas.

    • Mashed avocado or guacamole
    • Tomato salsa
    • Cilantro
    • Lime
    • Sour cream or plain greek yogurt
    • Shredded cheddar cheese

    Ways to serve fajitas

    We love to serve these vegetarian fajitas in a bowl with all the toppings like salsa and avocado with a sprinkle of lime juice. You can also serve them fajita-style with charred corn or flour tortillas topped with your favorite fajita toppings. My kids really like to add a side of tortillas chips as well for that full-on Mexican style meal.

    Recipe tips and variations

    • Clean the mushrooms easily by gently wiping them with a clean damp towel. Then slice them into strips that are about 1/4 inch thick.
    • Slice the onions and peppers thin to make it easier to cook them faster.
    • Add in other veggies like roasted cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, or tomatoes.
    • Add some additional protein to these fajitas like some crispy tofu, chickpeas, or pinto beans
    • Make ahead – You can slice the veggies ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days before you use them.

    Description

    Vegetarian fajitas cooked on a sheet pan in under 20 minutes! Loaded with veggies and black beans and seasoned with a homemade fajita spice blend. Great for a healthy dinner any night of the week. 

     


    Ingredients

    Scale

    For the Fajita Veggies

    • 2 large portobello mushroom caps (cleaned and sliced into strips)
    • 3 large bell peppers (sliced into strips) – I used a mix of red, yellow and green for color
    • 1 medium red onion (peeled and sliced thin) – about 1 cup
    • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
    • 3 tablespoon fajita seasoning

    For the black beans

    • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans – drained and rinsed
    • 2 tablespoons vegetable stock
    • 1 tablespoon fajita seasoning

    For Serving

    • Avocados sliced or mashed with lime and salt
    • Chopped fresh cilantro
    • Limes
    • Cojita cheese or shredded cheddar cheese
    • Sour cream
    • Salsa

    Instructions

    Season and cook the veggies

    1. Add the sliced mushrooms, peppers and onions to a large bowl.  Drizzle the veggies with avocado oil and season with the fajita seasoning.  Toss to coat everything in the oil and seasoning. Let sit for 10 minutes. 
    2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (optional for easy clean up).  
    3. Spread the veggies onto the baking sheet in an even layer and bake at 400 degrees F for 10-12 minutes. It may take less time if you sliced the veggies thin, so watch them so they don’t burn. 

    Cook the black beans

    1. Heat up a skillet to medium heat.  Add the black beans to the pan along with the vegetable stock and fajita seasoning.  
    2. Toss and cook for 2-3 minutes, then simmer on low heat for 1-2 additional minutes. Set aside. 

    Assemble the fajitas

    1. Remove the veggies from the oven and serve them along with the black beans and your faovirte fajita toppings.  
    2. These are great served as a fajita bowl or with corn or flour tortillas. Top them with salsa, avocado, cheese, lime and cilantro.
