A Trio Of Taco Types

For taco tuesday I made 3 different tacos. All served on flour “street” sized shells.

Roasted crunchy chickpea tacos with fresh radish and Valentina hot sauce. Seasoned and sauteed heart of palm tacos with cabbage and spicy #vegenaise. Seasoned and sauteed radish tacos with grilled onion and #herdezsalsa.

Green Tomato Curry

A friend gave us a few green tomatoes and an assortment of green peppers. I wasn’t sure what to do with the tomatoes and decided to try them in a curry.

I diced the tomatoes, chopped the peppers and cooked in a pan along with red onion. I then added a can of chickpeas, a can of coconut milk and a Tbsp of curry powder and dried basil. Was really good.

Vegan Sausage

I made this seitan and lentil link sausage using the recipe here. I think it’s pretty good.

Vegan sausage with grilled onion and jalapeno on whole wheat bun.

The next day I made more sausage in the form of a patty for breakfast adding some ground sage to the mix.

Breakfast vegan sausage along with tofu scramble and fried potatoes.

Pulled BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich

Vegan pulled BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich topped with home-made bbq sauce and slaw. Served with homemade potato salad.

I didn’t really follow any recipes for any of this.

For the jackfruit I cooked it along with onion in a skillet I added black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, tamari and maple syrup.
