Chili-Lime Mushroom Tacos

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min. YIELD: 4 servings.
I used to make this dish with beef, but substituting with portobella mushrooms turned it into my family's vegetarian favorite. It's quick, nutritious, low fat and tasty. —Greg Fontenot, The Woodlands, Texas

Ingredients

  • 4 large portobello mushrooms (about 3/4 pound)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 8 corn tortillas (6 inches), warmed
