Vegetarian Tacos

Vegetarian Tacos!

Today I made the most delightful vegetarian tacos! I am fasting from meat for the Lenten Season (which is over on Sunday!) and have been searching for ways to avoid meat (which, after weeks now doesn't seem as hard as first imagined). Do I miss meat? yes. Where these just as good as any other dish that has meat? yes! So without further ado- here's my recipe!

Here's the "normal" stuff I put on it:

  • Taco Shells (obviously)
  • Sour Cream 
  • Taco Sauce
  • Lettuce
  • Shredded Cheese
Here's the filling ingredients (In place of meat):

  • 1 Cup Cooked Quinoa (any way you like to prepare it! I put with two parts water and a little butter and salt, then boil til cooked)
  • 1 Can Black Beans
  • 1 Can Whole Kernel Corn
  • Taco seasoning to taste (I like lots and often make my own)
  • Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
I take all of these ingredients and dump together in a frying pan, cook for about 10 mins until fully heated, and ENJOY! Yumm! And I had all of this in my kitchen already :) Happy Vegetarian Cooking!
