How To Make Vegetarian Tacos

Tacos are a favorite Mexican dish worldwide. From a simple filling of seasoned minced meat or fish, shredded cabbage, salsa, and shredded cheese, many varieties of this dish are now created and eaten in all parts of the world.

With today’s recipe, vegans and vegetarians can also enjoy this delicious dish. Meat is replaced by tempeh, a protein, fiber, and vitamin-rich food made from fermented soybeans. Tempeh is quickly becoming a more preferred meat substitute over tofu for its flavor, texture, and higher nutritional value. In this recipe, you will also learn how to easily season your taco filling instead of buying packaged taco seasoning mix which contains additives and preservatives. We assure you that once you’ve made this vegetarian taco at home, you will be reluctant to go out for tacos any more!
