Notes

Tips:
For a completely vegan taco, opt for non-dairy cheese or creamy avocado slices as your topping. If you're short on time, pre-sliced mushrooms and canned beans make the prep even faster. These tacos also work great as a make-ahead lunch—just store the filling and tortillas separately, and assemble when ready to eat.
