Easy Vegetarian Fajita’s
This is a healthy dinner idea the whole family can get behind! I especially love this recipe because it only takes me about 15 minutes to get supper on the table and they are packed with perfectly seasoned veggies, which are hard to sneak in sometimes! If you have been following my weight loss journey and are curious about what I eat to lose weight and keep it off then this recipe for Vegetarian Fajita’s is for you!
If eating healthy seems daunting to me, I’m not doing it. I need quick, easy, filling, and family friendly if I am going to sustain healthy eating. This meal meets all of that criteria! I can even take it a step healthier for myself by swapping the tortilla shell with a wheat shell and the processed meat for tofu.
What this Dinner Prep Looks Like for Me:
- Drizzle a little oil in the bottom of a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Rip open a bag of frozen vegetarian chicken, pour into the pan and let lightly brown. (You could skip this step and just throw everything in at the same time, too.)
- Rip open a bag of frozen pepper and onion, pour into the pan.
- Stir in packet of seasoning.
- Cover the pan, stir frequently, cook until everything is done.
- Place all of the ingredients on the table and let your family build their own.
It’s so easy and excitingly flavored! These leave you feeling full and good. It’s a win, win!

- 1 (13.5 oz) bag Morningstar Farms Chik’n Strips
