How to Make Vegetarian Tacos
These tacos don’t require any cooking, which makes it easy for you to put together a quick and easy vegetarian meal and be on your way. The bean mixture is also delicious when topping a salad of mixed greens. Serve with Cubano Roasted Broccoli Florets Latin-inspired, veggie-packed meal. You can make these tacos vegan by simply leaving out the cheese.
