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!

What is a good protein

What is a good protein to eat? Some say hot dogs, and some may say luncheon meat. So there is no good answer. When you you pick out a nutrition program to follow each one of them have something different that you can choose for a protein.  Whether you are vegan, vegetarian, meat eater, or whatever nutrition way that you follow there should be some guidelines to what is an excellent protein to  eat. First, let's start off with why we eat protein, and why we need it in our daily diets. You see our bodies are designed to use protein to build and repair tissues such as bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and let's not forget our blood needs protein too. Our bodies also uses protein to make enzymes, hormones, and other bodily chemicals.  Let's not forget about our hair. It is important to eat protein in order to keep some hair on our heads unless you have a hair or skin disease. Protein helps keep those hairs in their place. Well definitely for me at least LOL. When I

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 you would

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
