• 8 oz (225g) cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• Salt to taste
• 8 small flour or corn tortillas (check vegan-friendly)
• Optional toppings: fresh cilantro, sliced avocado, vegan sour cream, salsa

Equipment

• Large non-stick skillet or cast iron pan
• Cutting board and sharp knife
• Mixing bowl
• Spatula or wooden spoon
• Paper towels or kitchen towel (for pressing tofu)
• Citrus juicer (optional)
• Serving plates

Instructions

1. Press the tofu: Wrap the tofu block in paper towels and place a heavy object on top for at least 15 minutes to remove excess water. This ensures a firmer texture perfect for fajitas.
2. Prepare the vegetables: While pressing tofu, slice the bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and mushrooms into thin strips or slices and set aside.
3. Mix the seasoning: In a small bowl, combine the ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, dried oregano, black pepper, and a pinch of salt.
4. Slice the pressed tofu: Cut the pressed tofu into thin strips resembling fajita meat.
5. Heat the skillet: Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to your pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu strips and sauté for 5-7 minutes until golden brown on all sides. Remove tofu from the pan and set aside.
6. Sauté the vegetables: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Toss in the sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking for 4-5 minutes until slightly softened.
7. Add mushrooms, zucchini, and garlic: Stir in mushrooms, zucchini, and minced garlic. Cook for another 4 minutes until all the veggies are tender but still vibrant.
8. Season everything: Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the vegetables and tofu, stirring well to coat. Cook for another 2 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
9. Add lime juice: Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle fresh lime juice over the fajita mixture. Give it a final stir.
10. Warm the tortillas: Heat tortillas in a dry pan or microwave until soft and pliable.
11. Assemble your fajitas: Spoon the tofu and veggie mixture onto each tortilla. Add your favorite toppings such as chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, vegan sour cream, or salsa.
12. Serve immediately: Roll or fold your fajitas and enjoy the smoky, spicy, and fresh flavors!

Tips & Variations

“For an extra smoky flavor, try adding a dash of liquid smoke to the seasoning mix!”

• Use tempeh instead of tofu: If you prefer a nuttier texture, swap tofu for tempeh cut into strips.
• Make it gluten-free: Use corn tortillas or gluten-free wraps to suit dietary needs.
• Add beans: Black beans or pinto beans can be tossed in for extra protein and fiber.
• Try different veggies: Feel free to add sliced jalapeños, corn, or even baby spinach for variety.
• Spice it up: Increase the chili powder or add cayenne pepper for more heat.
• Make it a bowl: Skip the tortillas and serve the fajita filling over rice or quinoa for a delicious fajita bowl.
