Serves: 4


Mushroom Marinade:
1 cup Newman's Own Balsamic Vinaigrette or Light Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing
1 fresh jalapeno chile, stem removed, but with seeds and membrane left in for heat, minced, Fajita Fixing, as preferred:
4 burrito-size flour tortillas, warm
Newman's Own Salsa (mild, medium or hot)

Any or all of the following:
Sliced avocado, sour cream, grated sharp cheddar or monterey jack cheese, shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, chopped fresh cilantro

1 large garlic clove, pressed
2 packages (6 oz. each) sliced portobello mushrooms
8 oz. shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, sliced

Vegetable Sauté:
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 large onion, cut in half and sliced vertically into thin crescents
1 green pepper, cut into thin slices
1 red pepper, cut into thin slices


Combine, in a glass or nonreactive bowl, the Newman's Own Balsamic
Vinaigrette, or Light Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing, jalapeno, garlic,

least 1 hour at room temperature, or overnight in refrigerator, stirring
occasionally.

Heat olive oil in nonstick 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add onions, and
green and red peppers when skillet is very hot. They should sizzle when
added. Cook over medium heat for about 30-35 minutes until tender and
golden, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450°F. Heat jelly-roll pan in oven for 5 minutes.
Remove hot pan (carefully) from oven, scatter drained marinated mushroom
mixture over it, and replace in oven, scatter drained marinated mushroom
mixture over it, and replace in oven. Bake for 20 minutes or until mushrooms
are slightly wilted and a little dried-out looking, stirring occasionally.
Remove from oven and add to peppers and onions.

Serve at once, letting each diner fold a little of the sizzling
mushroom-onion-pepper mixture into a tortilla, along with Newman's Own Salsa and other fixings.
