Spicy Vegan Fajitas



Spicy Vegan Fajitas


This dish is AMAZING! First time I tried baking my fajitas instead of the traditional frying pan. I would definitely make this recipe many more times to come. The best part about this recipe is that it is super easy to make, and it is quick and easy. Plus, making extra for tomorrows lunch is a MUST!

What I love the most about fajitas is that you can spice things up or turn the spice down a few notches. I know every time I make a fajita I change up my seasonings.


Ingredients:

·      Colored peppers, red, yellow, orange
·      Onions
·      Cauliflower
·      Mushrooms
·      Habanero pepper
·      1 Tbsp. Chili powder
·      1 Tbsp. Ground Cumin
·      1 Tbsp. Garlic powder
·      1 Tbsp. Paprika
·      Salt (to taste)
·      1 Tbsp. Black pepper (to taste)
·      1 Tbsp. Oregano
·      1 Tbsp. Onion powder
·      1 Tbsp. Cayenne pepper
·      1 Tbsp. Cilantro
·      1 Tbsp. Chipotle Chile pepper
·      1 Tbsp. Olive Oil
·      ¼ cup of water



Directions:

  1. Turn on the oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Prepare your cookie sheet with a sheet of tinfoil.
  3. Chop all of your vegetables for your fajitas, peppers, onions, and cauliflower.      Make sure the cauliflower is chopped up into small pieces.
  4. Put all your chopped vegetables into a large bowl.
  5. Now in a separate bowl measure all your seasoning, and mix them up together.
  6. Add your oil and water to the seasoning bowl, and mix together. Once blended add to your vegetables in the larger bowl.
  7. Stir around your vegetables until they are all coated.
  8. Pour the flavored vegetables onto the cookie sheet, and spread them out evenly.
  9. Place the cookie sheet into the oven to bake for 20 minutes or until your desired tenderness. 
  10. If you are adding some lettuce, tomatoes, or any other toppings. While the fajitas are cooking this is the time to get them ready!
  11. Once done serve. Enjoy!

Yummy Zucchini Quinoa Bread

There is nothing like zucchini bread! I enjoy sinking my teeth into a slice with a nice hot cup of coffee. Yum Yum! But how does one enjoy zucchini bread when your on a health journey and giving up sugar amongst other things? Well, I did some research on making it from scratch and came up with my very own recipe! I can't wait to try it! The traditional bread has regular milk, eggs, white sugar, brown sugar, canola oil, and wheat flour to name a few. I took out all those ingredients and replaced it with much filling and healthier ingredient choices. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do. Matter of fact, I believe everyone should make this recipe and try it. Its good to get outside of your comfort zone and try something new. You may just shock yourself and find out it tastes just the same but more filling. Plus, not to mention we are bringing our buff back right? We will have to make some changes in out nutrition as we go along our journey. This recipe makes appro...

Rough Week

This week was a rough one for sure. You see my father-in-law Greg died this week shorty after our vacation up north. We did not expect him to leave us so sudden. Which led me to a little bit of emotional eating instead of dealing with my pain. When I recognized what I was doing I stopped, and assessed the situation. All I needed to do was to talk about happy memories, and cry a little bit. I feel like I am  a little numb on the inside...I can't let emotional eating steer me away from my goals no matter how painful a death can be. I know one day I will see him again in heaven. Until that day comes I need to focus on a healthier lifestyle, and reaching my weight loss goal. Not to mention I am sure he would be very sad if I did not stay my course.... I know death is hard to deal with when someone so close to you passes on. I can't express how painful it is until you actually have gone through a tragedy like this. Some people quit eating, others over eat, and its easier to no...

Homemade Quinoa Bread

This  quinoa bread is very simple to make. It is gluten-free, yeast free, and its vegan. Because you don't need to mess with yeast this makes this an easy bread to make. Only takes about 5-7 minutes to prepare, and 60 minutes to cook, and another 60 minutes to cool. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees, and take out your bread pan and grease it with a little bit of coconut oil. When I started this recipe I used my blender to blend the quinoa, gluten-free flour (I used gluten-free oats), baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Blend for a few minutes until the quinoa is grinder down into a fine flour and everything is mixed.  Next, I poured everything into my food processor but you could still use the blender too. Pour the flour from the blender, and add all the liquid; Almond milk, honey, and coconut oil. Blend again for a few minutes until everything is blended.  Transfer your bread mix into the prepared bread pan, and if ...
