Ingredients
For the fajita seasoning:
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the stuffed mushrooms:
- 6 portobello mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 green bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and sliced, small
- 1 red bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and sliced, small
- 1 yellow bell pepper stemmed, seeded, and sliced, small
- 1 onion sliced, small; red variety
- 1 tablespoon lime juice fresh
- 15 ounce black beans rinsed and drained, canned
- 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped, fresh
- 1 cup Mexican blend cheese shredded
For serving:
- guacamole
- Pico de Gallo
- cilantro
- sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
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.
