Tempeh Fajitas

I make a lot of Mexican food. It may have something to do with it being acceptable to cover every inch of it in hot sauce or it may just be that Stop and Shop sells cans of organic beans for a buck. So I'm sure there will be a lot more Mexican food on this blog as time goes on.

These Tempeh Fajitas were pretty boss. There's a chinese produce market in New Brunswick on the corner of French and Somerset that has really cheap limes. All of their produce is really inexpensive but you can get limes 10 for a dollar. 

The Mexican Millet in the picture is from the Veganomicon.

Tempeh Fajitas

Marinade: 1/3 C Lime Juice 

2/3 C Water 

4 Tbsp Olive Oil 

8 Cloves of Garlic 

2 tsp salt 

1 tsp each liquid smoke, cayenne pepper, black pepper and cumin  

1 brick of tempeh 1 red onion 

1 zucchini 

1 red bell pepper 

1 green bell pepper

(really any veggies you want)

Slice everything to fajita size and marinate everything for at least two hours. Cook tempeh separate from veggies to get it crispy. Just pan fry it it's not difficult, when it's brown flip it. After the tempeh is done set it aside and cook the veggies how you like them. If you want them to be crisp cook them less if you them to be softer cook them longer.

When they're done grab a corn or flour tortilla and make a fajita. If you were me you'd put fresh pico de gallo, guacamole and a mess of cilantro on them. Serve with with some type of side, like if it's payday and you can afford to eat rice and beans as a side dish and not a meal that would be good.

Record: Henry's Dress - Bust 'Em Green

Henry's Dress was a slumberland band. In case you don't know me I have a weird obsession with Slumberland and K Records. I want to own every record either of those labels have ever put out. It's pretty rare that I take to a record the way I have with this one. Just listen to it.
