So I give you, a vegan taco slight spicy recipe, rope the entire family in on this one and make this rainy night just a little less dreary! You’ll want to keep reading for a ton of other taco filling ideas 🌮
Vegan Chorizo Potato Tacos
INGREDIENTS:
- Large Onion
- Soy Chorizo
- Cooked Potatoes
- Tortillas
- For toppings: pico de gallo, vegan sour cream, and avocado
METHOD:
- Cook the onions over medium high in a wide skillet. Add the chorizo to the onions, break it apart and cook until it’s getting brown.
- Then, add in your cooked, cubed potato and cook until everything is heated through.
- Turn a Stove top on low, then add a tortilla to the burner using tongs.
- Warm the tortilla over the heat for 20-30 seconds, until it’s getting little light brown spots. Then, flip and cook another 20 seconds on the other side. Alternatively, you could warm your tortillas in the microwave.
- Place all the ingredients together in each tortilla and SERVE.
- ENJOY 💚
