My inspiration for this dish came from wanting to create a fajita recipe that was quick and easy. We’ve had this several times and I’m always amazed at how fast it comes together and how much flavor there is. (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 and you’ve got an easy, delicious weeknight meal. If you’re looking for another great spin on fajitas, check out these Quinoa Fajita Burritos as well.
