Ingredients in Portobello Mushroom Fajitas:
- Portobello mushrooms A nutrient dense vegetable–you can learn more about portobello mushrooms here about this antioxidant rich, anti-inflammatory vegetable.
- Bell peppers (any color) Considered a nightshade vegetable, bell peppers can be eaten raw or cooked. They’re super high in vitamin C and other antioxidants.
- Zucchini is a type of squash that contains calcium, iron, and antioxidants.
- Onions contain a high amount of Vitamin C and B, as well as potassium.
- Veggie fajita seasoning (for the mushrooms–make sure to use the smoked paprika!)
- Vegetable seasoning (for the other vegetables–see below for the recipe)
- Corn tortillas, or flour tortillas–whichever you prefer.
- Spray oil (I use olive oil or avocado oil)
Homemade Vegetable Seasoning:
- 2 tbsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tsp coriander
- 2 tsp dry mustard
- 2 tsp dill
- 2 tsp rosemary
- 1 tsp red pepper
Adding in a little chipotle powder will give this recipe a slightly smoked taste–try it!
When slicing vegetables, make sure they’re all the same thickness. This will ensure they’re done cooking at the same time. If you prefer certain veggies less cooked and more crisp, slice those thicker.
How to make Portobello Fajitas
- Slice portobello mushrooms and spray slices with oil. Sprinkle fajita seasoning on them.
- Slice zucchini, peppers, and onions.
- Place a small drizzle of oil (maybe 1 tablespoon?) and about 1T of veggie seasoning in with veggies. Toss them together.
- Grill at 350º for 15-20 minutes or until cooked to your liking. I prefer mine a bit undercooked, so they’re crunchy!
- Serve with corn or flour tortillas, on top of zoodles, or on a salad! Watch the video for my tips about making warm tortillas!
Stovetop Instructions
If cooking these fajitas on the stovetop, I’d cook over medium-high heat for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are cooked to your liking.
How to serve Portobello Mushroom Fajitas
Serve these fajitas with corn or flour tortillas, on top of a salad, with zucchini noodles, or even add some black beans for extra protein and serve as a “bowl.” If I wanted to add more veggies to it, I’d heat up some cauliflower and serve these fajitas on a bed of warm cauliflower.
Add greek yogurt, sour cream, cottage cheese, cilantro, salsa, or squeezed lime juice as garnish.

Healthy Eating Plans
21 Day Fix: One serving of this recipe is two green containers and one yellow container. You could also just fill your green container up with veggies if you’d like!
Weight Watchers: The veggies are zero points on the 2023 plan. If you’d like to add corn tortillas, add 2 points for 2 reduced fat tortillas.
2B Mindset: Without the tortilla, this is a perfect 75% dinner recipe, just add some edamame or other protein as a side dish. With tortillas, this is a great lunch recipe for 2B, just add 25% protein (edamame, tofu, tempeh) and you’re set!

I don’t have a grill. Stove at 350.?..
Perfect! Maybe 20 minutes or so :)
Delicious! But I have to say that it takes much longer to cut all the vegetables, etc. what’s the instructions say?😁
