Teesey Fajitadillas

This recipe was for a quick dinner meal that I whipped up. THE star of this dish was definitely the super melty delicious Teese. This is the best vegan cheese ever. Not rubbery. Not like crayons. Not just nooch. In fact it is pleasantly familiar to fresh mozzarella that I enjoyed in my not so compassionate days. I have made pizza margherita , insalata caprese and everything in between. This cheese stands up to any task a dairy mozzarella can handle. And no veal calves have to be separated from their mothers at birth. How wonderful is that.

Well enough praise, here is the simple recipe.

INGREDIENTS
Corn tortillas, i suppose flour would work just as well.
Seitan, I followed the method of Vegan Dad .
1/2 an onion, sliced into strips
1/2 a yellow pepper, sliced into strips
cumin
salt
lime, juiced and zested
Lots of teese, grated
salsa, homemade or store bought, but has to be fresh
1 avocado
sour cream if desired, vegan gourmet can make your life easier than making your own, which is also simple.

METHOD
1. brown seitan with onions, peppers, cumin and salt. Splash with water to moisten seitan texture. Add lime zest if desired, a nice touch.
2. Sprinkle a generous amount of teese on one tortilla top with seitan mixture. Add more Teese and top with another tortilla.
3. Heat the same pan with a little oil or EB ( Earth Balance), and add tortilla sandwich you just created. Saute over med-low heat to allow Teese to melt properly. Believe me it will melt.
4.Once browned and melty on both sides cut into halves or quarters. Serve with avocado, salsa, sour cream, lime juice an cilantro.

Please enjoy. Sorry no pictures, but I didn't want you to drool all over your screen.
