Servings: persons

2 teaspoons canola oil
1 cup carrot, shredded
1 cup zucchini, shredded
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup mushroom, finely sliced
1 (14 ounce) can cooked lentils, drained
2 1/2 teaspoons fajita seasoning mix
1 (15 ounce) can fat-free refried beans
8 taco shells
1/2 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
Toppings
reduced-fat sour cream (optional)
salsa (optional)
guacamole (optional)
jalapeno (optional)

1
Heat oil in a large pan over a medium heat.
2
Add in the shredded carrots, zucchini, chopped onions and the garlic powder.
3
Stir for a minute two before reducing the heat and letting them sweat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Add the lentils, mushrooms and fajitas seasoning and cooking, stirring often, over medium heat for another five minutes.
5
Meanwhile, put the taco shells in the oven to cook through. The ones that I buy take about 5 minutes so this can be done while the lentils and mushrooms are cooking down.
6
Stir the refried beans into the vegetable and lentil mixture until everything is combined and the beans are just warmed through.
7
Spoon the lentil and bean mixture into the taco shells and top with shredded cheese.
8
Add any of the other toppings you may enjoy and eat as you would a 'normal' taco.
