Taco Night!


Three over-stuffed white corn taco shells filled with refried beans, soy "ground beef"*, lettuce, guacamole, salsa and a white sauce made from Vegenaise (vegan mayonnaise) mixed with lime juice and chili powder. Super yummy.

*Just wanted to note that I used Morningstar Farms Grillers Crumbles for these tacos. The package that I used was one before the company reformulated their recipe in January. Every package of this product that was made since January will now contain milk and egg which makes the product no longer vegan. This is upsetting. I will most likely switch to another brand or make my own soy ground from TVP granules from here on out.

  2. P'N,
    Yes it's so easy. The soy ground beef is from Morningstar Farms. You can get them in the freezer section at the grocery store. It's called "Grillers Crumbles". It takes seconds to stir fry them with sauteed onions and taco seasoning. Don't even need to defrost, just throw in a pan!

  3. Oh one more thing. I just found out that Morningstar Farms Grillers Crumbles will no longer be vegan. They will contain eggs and milk at some point. Don't know when as the package I bought at Target was still the vegan recipe!

  5. Looks delicious...I use Boca Crumbles and this other vegan itlaina sauage I find at Whole Foods in the refridgerated section...I cannot recall the name, but onece I mixed them just because I did not have enough crumbles and it was really good.
