- 4 large caps Portabella mushrooms
- 1 Red bell pepper
- 1 Yellow bell pepper
- 1 Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Red onion
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin

- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 small Corn or flour tortillas

Instructions
Clean the Portabella mushroom caps with a damp paper towel and slice them into 1/2-inch strips.
Cut the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips. Slice the red onion into thin wedges.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the sliced mushrooms, peppers, and onions into a large bowl. Pour the marinade over the vegetables and toss until evenly coated.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated vegetables and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave them for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable.
Assemble the fajitas by spooning the vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Top with chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Portabella Fajitas!
