A taco is a traditional Mexican food made of a corn or flour tortilla that is folded or rolled around a filling that can include beef, pork, chicken, seafood, vegetables, and cheese. A taco is generally eaten without utensils and is notoriously messy to eat. According to food history, the taco was invented by Mexican miners in the 18th century.
This easy vegan taco recipe uses Yves meatless ground round mixed with chopped mushrooms for the main filling. It is made tastier by the fresh tomato salsa, simple guacamole, and cream sauce.

Ideas And Tips:
• You may use flour or corn tortillas as-is to make soft tacos. If you want the taco shells to be crunchy, coat both sides of the tortilla with oil or cooking spray. Drape each tortilla over two bars of your oven rack then bake at 375°F for 7-10 minutes. To prepare using a microwave, fold and put the tortilla in a coffee mug to form a taco shell. Cook in the microwave for 1 minute.
• You may use taco seasoning mix to season the vegan ground round.
• You may add chopped dill to the vegan mayonnaise.
• You may add chopped jalapeño and shredded vegan cheese to the taco filling.
