Quick n Easy Vegan Fajitas

Posted on Updated on

Made this for lunch today. Took about 10 minutes or so.

FoodStuff:

flour tortillas
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small white onion, in fajita sized chunks
1 red bell pepper, fajita sized chunks
1 8 ounce can tomato sauce
1/2 cup of water
1 package Trader Joe’s Chickenless Strips
seasonings (I use cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, in that order)
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast

MakeFood:

Steam up your tortillas. I don’t have a steamer… so I just spray some water on them, and throw them in an unpreheated oven until they are not wet, and nice and soft.

Get the olive oil nice and hot in a frying pan, and throw the onions in to brown up for a minute or two. Toss in the bell peppers and let them get a bit of color. A minute or two should do it for those, too.

Keep your heat on high, and toss in the tomato sauce, water, and chicken strips. Season to taste.

Once the water has nearly cooked off, and you are left with very little liquid (a couple of minutes only), add the nutritional yeast, and stir it up well so it all dissolves. They are ready to serve.

Should make about 4-6 fajitas. I made half this much, but it seemed silly to post a recipe with half a can of tomato sauce and half a package of chix strips.
