Ingredients
For the Fajita Spice Mix:
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- ½ tablespoon smoked paprika
- ½ tablespoon cumin
- ¾ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ - ½ teaspoon cayenne (optional for spice, ½ teaspoon will be very spicy)
For the Fajitas:
- 1 (350g/ 12.3oz) block extra-firm tofu drained, and torn into bite-sized pieces
- 3 bell peppers (any color), sliced
- 1 medium red onion sliced
- 3 cloves garlic minced or pressed
- 2 tablespoons light oil (such as canola or vegetable)
- 1 half lime
- 8 small tortillas warmed
- Fajita toppings of choice such as: avocado, salsa, vegan sour cream, vegan cheese, jalapeno slices, guacamole, or chopped cilantro.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200℃).
- In a small bowl, add all of the fajita spice mix ingredients, stir and set aside.
- On a large baking sheet, spread the tofu, bell peppers, onion, and garlic. Drizzle the oil over top. Then sprinkle the fajita spice mix over top. Use your hands to toss the ingredients well until everything is well coated in oil and seasoning.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, stopping to stir halfway through, until everything is cooked and golden brown in some places. Squeeze the lime juice over top of the hot veggies and tofu. Serve hot with tortillas and toppings of choice.
Notes
Make-ahead/ meal prep: cook the veggies and tofu according to the directions. Allow to cool before transferring to an air-tight container. Store in the fridge for up to 4 days. Gently reheat in the microwave or on the stove. Serve hot with tortillas and toppings of choice. The tofu and veggies are also great served on top of rice as an alternative.
Batch the spice mix: If you plan on making these sheet pan fajitas often, you can make a big jar of the fajita seasoning (multiply the recipe as needed). When making the fajitas you will need about 2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons of the spice mix per baking sheet.
Oil-free: for oil-free simply omit the oil. Make sure you use a good non-stick pan and/or line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
