| 1. Heat oil in a large pan over a medium heat. | 2. Add in the shredded carrots, zucchini, chopped onions and the garlic powder. | 3. Stir for a minute two before reducing the heat and letting them sweat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. | 4. Add the lentils, mushrooms and fajitas seasoning and cooking, stirring often, over medium heat for another five minutes. | 5. Meanwhile, put the taco shells in the oven to cook through. The ones that I buy take about 5 minutes so this can be done while the lentils and mushrooms are cooking down. | 6. Stir the refried beans into the vegetable and lentil mixture until everything is combined and the beans are just warmed through. | 7. Spoon the lentil and bean mixture into the taco shells and top with shredded cheese. | 8. Add any of the other toppings you may enjoy and eat as you would a 'normal' taco. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
