This recipe serves 2 people but you can half/ double the recipe to serve the right amount of people. It is such a brilliant meat free meal. The quorn takes on the spice flavour really well and stays moist through cooking. It is really delicious but can be quite messy so don't expect to keep your hands clean when eating this meal.

The fajita mix can be homemade if you like. For a homemade fajita mix I use chilli powder, salt, cumin, oregano, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper and black pepper in about equal quantities. You could also use another homemade spice mix if you prefer. I tend to make the spice mix in bulk and store in an airtight container for later.

For salad to go in the wraps I usually use lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber but you can use whatever salad you prefer for them. I'm sure lots of salad options work with this recipe so you can see what you like the most. You could also put in some sour cream or guaccamole to the wraps to add some flavour if you like.
