Steps to make Veggie Fajita Zoodles

1	Make zucchini noodles	3
Spiralize the zucchini or use a julienne peeler to make zucchini noodles.
2	Prepare vegetables	2
Cut the red bell pepper halves into ¼-inch strips. Slice the onion halves into ¼-inch half moons.
3	Slice mushrooms	3
Slice 8 ounces mushrooms into ¼-inch slices.
4	Mix spices	2
In a small bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon chipotle powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, and sea salt to taste.
5	Cook vegetables	5
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 3 tablespoons avocado oil and add onions and bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened.

Add the sliced mushrooms and spice mixture and cook until the mushrooms start to soften.
7	Add zucchini noodles	2
Turn the heat to high and add the spiralized zucchini. Cook the zucchini, using a pair of tongs to toss until they just begin to wilt but still have a bit of texture.
