Don’t we all love tacos? I believe so. I honestly love all of them, fish, beef, chicken, you name it. But then some of my friends are vegetarian, so I had to come up with a meatless version, and it really wasn’t hard at all. I stick to my basic flavor profile for tacos, and just change the ingredients and the toppings. This one came out phenomenal. I chose to add vegetarian chorizo, but of course you can omit that, if that’s not your cup of tea!

What you’ll need:
- 8 oz white mushrooms, sliced
- 8 oz Baby Bella mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- corn tortillas
- 2 avocados
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 tsp salt
- juice of 1 lime
- 1 garlic clove, chopped
- 8 oz vegetarian Chorizo (if desired)


Heat the olive oil in a sauce pan, add onions and sauté for 4 – 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and sauté for another 4 – 5 minutes.


Add all spices and blend into the mushroom/onion mix. Cook for another 3 – 4 minutes. If you’re choosing to use vegetarian chorizo, crumble it into the mushroom mix now, and cook for another 2 – 4 minutes.


In the meantime, add avocado, cilantro, sour cream, lime juice, salt and garlic into a blender or food processor. Blend well. Serve tacos with the crema and other toppings of your choice.

Bon Appétit!
