Vegan "Steak" Tacos! Perfect dinner night food. Super easy, filling and healthy!
Vegan and Gluten Free
Taco nightttt!!! Spoiler: the "steak" is actually portobello mushrooms and it works perfectly as the meat replacement!
So I absolutely love tacos but usually I just do a simple rice a beans taco... But NOT tonight! Nope, tonight is a faux steak taco and it was deeeelicious!
Tonight was a fun night, we made this Vegan "Steak" Taco and watched Cutthroat Kitchen on the Food Network! Does anyone else love that show? I never used to be a fan of that show but ever since they came out with "Camp Cutthroat" I've been totally watching all the other re-run episodes of that show! We love it, it's too funny 😉
Anyways, on to the tacos! SO EASY!!!
I seasoned the filling with onion, garlic, chili and cumin to give a really nice smokey steak like flavor and topped with fresh ingredients tomato and lettuce!
And this Avocado Cream Sauce is some seriously insane stuff! By itself it's a little strong of lime flavor but when you put it on top the taco it's like a flavor explosion of creamy good-ness! You taste the avocado and cilantro with a hint of lemon! It works perfectly! these neeeed to be at your next taco night! 😉
I really hope you try it and take a picture so I can see it! Tag me on IG @TwoRaspberries #TwoRaspberries
