Make these easy and filling Vegan Fajitas that have proteins, carbs, vegetables and fats too, a complete meal rolled up at home with store-bought tortillas.
I wanted to make something the girls like. But that should be acceptable to my 80+-years-old father-in-law as we rather not leave him out of this kind of meal.
