As a lover of Mexican food who's recently gone meatless, I decided to experiment with an idea for fajitas that would be as close to the real thing as possible without including meat. These turned out to be better than almost any traditional fajitas I've ever had. Even my meat-loving 25-year-old son loved them, and wants more! Authentic Southwestern fajita flavor with a smoky touch. Very easy to make. Garnish with sour cream, salsa, and grated cheese as desired.

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cups water: 1 piece
  • olive oil: 3 Tbsp
  • liquid smoke flavoring: 2 Tbsp (optional)
  • fajita seasoning: 2 packages (1 ounce packages)
  • avocados - peeled, pitted, and sliced into 1/2-inch wedges: 4 piece
  • bell peppers - stemmed, seeded, and sliced into 1/2-inch wedges: 4 piece
  • extra large onion, sliced into rings and rings separated: 1 piece
  • flour tortillas: 12 piece (6 inch)

  1. Whisk water, oil, liquid smoke, and fajita seasoning together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add avocados, bell pepper, and onion, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour to overnight; turn occasionally.
