You can hear that sound over all the chatter, television volume, and kitchen clamor&nbsp;in the restaurant. The sound means one thing: deliciousness is on the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fajitas are a classic Tex-Mex creation, inspired by Tejano cuisine in the southwest United States. The origin of the dish dates back to when ranch hands used to receive part of their pay in the form of a strip steak, but fajitas have evolved to become <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/5-recipes-to-make-your-memorial-day-weekend-grill-tastic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a combination of grilled vegetables<\/a>, seafood, meat,&nbsp;and poultry. All of the sizzling items are wrapped in the steamed tortillas, serving as the vessels to transport all those flavors to your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The base of any great fajita recipe starts with a well-balanced marinade or spice mixture. And don\u2019t go out and purchase a packet of fajita seasoning because it is most likely filled with excess sodium, dyes, chemical flavor enhancers, and it just won\u2019t compare to the flavor of real spices and fresh ingredients. A great marinade, if you are using cauliflower or tempeh, begins with olive oil, fresh lime juice, liquid aminos, and a dash of freshly squeezed orange juice. The rest of the flavor will come from the spice rack. Chili powder, cumin, garlic powder (or freshly minced garlic), paprika, oregano, sea salt, pepper, and onion powder are the spices&nbsp;that you want to use for the marinade. Alternatively, you can season vegetables with these spices and eliminate the liquid base if you are only making veggie fajitas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beauty of fajitas is that it they can become a customizable buffet of tasty toppings and fillings. Make your own fresh <em>pico de gallo<\/em> salsa (recipe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/recipes\/recipe\/pico-de-gallo-salsa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>), chunky guacamole (click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/recipes\/recipe\/100-full-body-cleanse-approved-easy-guacamole\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>&nbsp;for recipe), and plate lime wedges and the vessels of your choice. You can use tortillas, collard leaves, or lettuce leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>National Fajita Day wouldn\u2019t be complete without some tasty recipes for you to make. Ready your spices and prepare to chow down because deliciousness is coming to you by way of these fajita recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Sheet Pan Cauliflower Tortillas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"340\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cauliflower-fajitas.jpg\" alt=\"cauliflower-fajitas\" class=\"wp-image-70800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cauliflower-fajitas.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cauliflower-fajitas-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/cauliflower-fajitas-520x245.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">If you are craving some fajitas but want to try and make them a little healthier, this is the recipe you\u2019ve been looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/recipes\/recipe\/sheet-pan-cauliflower-fajitas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>&nbsp;to make the recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">Vegetarian Mushroom Fajitas With A Kick<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"340\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/vegetarian-fajitas.jpg\" alt=\"vegetarian-fajitas\" class=\"wp-image-72251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/vegetarian-fajitas.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/vegetarian-fajitas-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/vegetarian-fajitas-520x245.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The flavor of the fajitas come from the bold marinade.
