Vegan🌱Mexican Fajitas
【Vegan🌱Mexican Fajitas】
Mexican cuisine is my boyfriend's favorite!
Fjitas are originally made of meat and vegetables with spices, but I veganized it so that vegans can also enjoy this amazing food!
As a meat alternative, I used soybean meat from Daizu Labo, Japanese food manufacture company.
Since it smells like soy beans a bit, I did some preparation for meat to remove soy bean smell, in advance.
- Marinate overnight soy bean meat in soy sauce, garlic, ginger, mirin, sake and maple syrup.
- Stir fry only soy bean meat before actually cooking with vegetables.
These 2 keys are what you should do if you have time for the better taste! :)
Or you can absolutely use your favorite meat alternatives that don't bother your taste buds! I did this only because the smell from meat wasn't what I wanted.
Too much food?
Yeah, I know right? haha
Fajitas that I'm sharing now with you was one of the Mexican dishes that I made for my boyfriend's birthday✨
His wish was "to eat a lot of food until he can't put any more food in his stomach" So I did it!
By the way, these are all vegan, needless to say🌱🌱🌱
Blackbean dish on right bottom in the photo is the recipe that I posted the other day♩ Please visit the link below if you're interested!
Regarding tortillas, it is locally made. Indian Life, in Burnaby where is the next city to Vancouver, produces toritillas with use of natural and organic ingredients, including non-GMO. This tortillas is the best one that I've ever tasted so far!
Highly recommended buying some of them if you're ever in Vancouver!
Alright,
