Instructions
Make the Mushroom Fajitas
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line two large baking sheets with foil.
- Mix together 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons fajita spice mix and juice of 1 lime in a large bowl. Add sliced mushrooms and toss to coat. Let marinate for 10 to 15 minutes, tossing occasionally.
- Once marinated, divide mushrooms between two baking sheets. Add sliced peppers and onions to the marinate bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon fajita spice. Toss to combine and divide among sheet pans with mushrooms, spreading to a single layer.
- Roast for 25 minutes, rotating pans halfway through.
Make the Spiced Black Beans
- Meanwhile, prepare the black beans by heating 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium pot. Add diced red onion, poblano and jalapeño and cook on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and spices, cooking 1 more minute. Add in black beans and broth, stirring and bringing to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and continue cooking until liquid is cooked off, about 15 minutes.
- Squeeze juice of ½ lime into beans and serve with Portobello Mushroom Fajitas and Whole30 compatible toppings of your choice – sliced avocado, sliced jalapenos, fresh cilantro and lime wedges.
