This was a nice meal to make, it just required alot of chopping (missing my food processor!)

Veggie fajitas-- $16
4 red bell peppers
2 green bell peppers
2 large onions
baby portabella mushrooms
2 yellow squash
2 containers seitan "fajitas" (you could save some $$ by making your own)

1. chop, chop, chop all the veggies
2. marinate the veggies in soy sauce, garlic
3. saute everything in canola or olive oil (I had to do the veg in separate pans)
4. toss together into whole wheat tortillas, with chz/s.c. and enjoy!
