Sheet Pan Vegan Fajitas
For Mexican Mondays
One of my dearest friends is kicking cancer for the second time and I have been so inspired by her strength, humor and resilience! Among many treatments, she's overhauled her food intake to strengthen healthy cells, by changing to a vegan diet. I was recently in her sweet home around dinner time and she made the most delicious, healthy meal.
Since I've probably cooked it five times since then I thought it was worth sharing with you! It's simple, surprisingly kid-friendly and tasty! Enjoy this adaptation from the Midwest Foodie Blog
