Ingredients

For the fajita seasoning:

For the stuffed mushrooms:

  • 6 portobello mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 small green bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and sliced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and sliced
  • 1 small yellow bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and sliced
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese

For serving:

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet and set aside. With a spoon, gently scoop out the gills that are inside the Portobello mushrooms. Discard the gills and set the mushrooms aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper.
  • In a large cast iron skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and onions; stir until the veggies are coated in the oil. Add the fajita seasoning and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in the lime juice and cook for 2 minutes. The vegetables should be tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Stir in the black beans and cilantro. Divide the pepper and bean mixture evenly between the portobello mushrooms. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the mushrooms.
  • Place the mushrooms on the wire rack and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and mushrooms are tender. If you want to brown the cheese on the top, put the pan under the broiler for 1 minute. Make sure you watch the mushrooms closely; the cheese will brown quickly.
  • Remove from the oven top with desired toppings. Serve warm.
