Chef's notes
You may find that the peppers may take a few minutes longer than the mushrooms. I usually shuffle the baking sheets around depending on which needs more heat or more time in the oven – that’s why I recommend two separate baking sheets.
This also works great as a rice or quinoa bowl! Just skip the tortilla and serve in a bowl.
I have pretty good nonstick baking sheets so I usually don’t line them with anything. If you are worried about sticking, just line the baking sheets with parchment paper.
