Vegan Fajita Bowls with Avocado Sauce

Step 1

Heat a large pan over medium heat and add a couple teaspoons olive oil and the sliced peppers and onions.  Add the cumin, paprika, salt, onion and garlic powder and mix everything together well.  Cook until peppers are softened and starting to brown, 10-12 minutes.

Step 2

Prepare your rice: If using cauliflower rice, sauté until cooked through.  Let cool for a few minutes and then mix in some salt, lime juice and cilantro (optional!).  If using regular rice or quinoa: cook completely and season if desired.

Step 3

Make your avocado sauce by adding sauce ingredients to a blender, plus about 1/2 cup of water.  Turn blender on and slowly add in extra water, or the juice from your pickled onions until desired consistency is reached.  I probably used about 1 1/2 cups total of liquid.

Step 4

Assemble your vegan fajita bowls: To each bowl, add 1/4 of the fajita veggies, 1/2 cup rice, 1/2 cup black beans, tortillas or chips and then top with avocado dressing and anything extra you like!
