Classic Fajita Bowl Including a Meaty Mushroom Hack!
We love Mexican food! We’ve dreamt up loads of recipes from Burrito Samosas to Guacaroni but this Fajita Bowl might be our all time fave! We used our pal @dereksarno’s famous mushroom pulling technique for the mushroom chicken, such a simple and effective technique! What’s your fave vegan Mexican dish?
