Satisfying black bean fajitas with mushrooms & sweet corn! Super quick and easy vegan weeknight meal that you can personalize with your favorite toppings.
Flavorful, satisfying black bean fajitas with mushrooms and sweet corn! We’ve had this meal several times and I’m always amazed at how fast it comes together and how much flavor there is.
Weeknight tip: it comes together even faster by making the taco seasoning and prepping the onions and peppers in advance!
The sweetness of the corn and bell peppers pairs wonderfully with the heartiness of the beans and mushrooms. Simply add your favorite fajita toppings (like guacamole, vegan sour cream or cheese, pico de gallo, etc.) and you’ve got an easy, delicious weeknight meal.

Corn & Black Bean Fajitas
Ingredients
- 3 bell peppers

Toppings of choice:
- Guacamole, dairy-free cheese, salsa, tomatoes, lime juice, cilantro, etc.
Instructions
- Thinly slice bell peppers and onion.
- In an extra-large pan over medium-high heat, saute onion for about 5 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. vegetable broth/water for no-oil saute method.)
