Ingredients

  • 3 bell peppers (thinly sliced)
  • 1 red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil (or neutral oil)
  • 1/2 cup fajita sauce
  • 2 cups vegetarian refried beans (or 15-ounce can)
  • 8 corn or flour tortillas (fajita or small size)
  • Creamy Jalapeno Sauce
  • Cilantro Lime Sauce
  • Shredded cheese or Cotija crumbles

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the red bell pepper and onions into similar sizes so they cook evenly. If you like extra caramelized onions, slice them thinner than the peppers.

  2. 2

    Drizzle the oil across the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add in the veggies and a pinch of salt, and toss to coat with the hot oil. Let cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring only occasionally to encourage some char.

  3. 3

    Gently pour in the fajita sauce and stir to coat. Allow the sauce to simmer with the veggies for about 3-4 minutes until slightly thick and coated. While the veggies cook, heat the refried beans if needed, either on the stovetop or in the microwave.

  4. 4

    Once the veggies are tender and coated with the sauce, remove from heat. Assemble the fajita tacos by spreading refried beans on a warmed corn or flour tortilla, and top with veggies. Garnish with desired toppings and enjoy!
