Our first week as Nutritarians, we were out of town and had to find a Veggie Friendly place to eat. We happened upon a chain Mexican restaurant but were afraid of what we'd find in the heart of East Texas, land of the beef & BBQ crowd. Nervously, we told the waiter what we wanted, and he and the chef produced an amazing assortment of vegetable fajitas. Not just the standard onions and peppers, we had carrots, cauliflower, cabbage, green beans, and more.
Now, this is one of our favorite meals. It's easy to prepare and we don't miss the beef (much!).
Veggie Fajitas
Slice the vegetables you have on hand such as:
Onions
Bell Peppers
Scallions
Cauliflower
Carrots (matchsticks)
Green Beans
Squash (yellow, zucchini, etc.)
and so on
Heat 1 tsp of olive oil (optional - could just use a bit of water) and toss the veggies in to cook on medium/low. Meanwhile, heat some fresh corn tortillas in the microwave, in the oven, or on the grill. Serve with black or "refried" (mashed) pinto beans, fresh avocado, and salsa.
