A fajita bowl is basically the filling from a fajita, served in a bowl rather than a flour tortilla. This is a healthy recipe full of vegetables, with even the accompaniment being cauliflower rice rather than regular rice.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the oil and let get hot, then add the mushrooms in a single layer. Let cook until they brown and release their moisture, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onions, peppers, squash, zucchini and garlic. Season with the ancho chile powder, salt and pepper. Stir and cook, allowing the veggies to soften and the flavors to meld, an additional 3 to 4 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat and deglaze the pan with the tequila. Stir and return the skillet to the heat. Stir in the lime juice and half the cilantro.
Serve with a bowl of Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice alongside, so that everyone can build their own bowl in this order: cauliflower rice, vegetable mixture, pico de gallo, queso fresco, the remaining cilantro, hot sauce and avocado.
