Description

These Sweet Onion Fajitas offer a comforting, plant-based twist on the classic Mexican dish. Tender chunks of sweet onion and new potatoes are simmered with garlic, jalape&# 195;±o, and a splash of wine until soft and flavorful. The mixture is seasoned with fresh cilantro and black pepper, then served in warm flour tortillas. For a creamy finish, top with grated cheese and a dollop of tangy yogurt. This recipe is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a light lunch that satisfies the whole family. The balance of savory vegetables and aromatic spices makes it a crowd-pleaser that is easy to prepare with pantry staples.
