VEGETARIAN TACO FILLING
This is a recipe I came up with looking for an alternative to using ground beef and a packaged seasoning mix to make a filling for tacos. It is completely vegan, and has successfully fooled both old fashioned meat & potatoes guys and hungry teenagers both.

Steps:
- Saute onions in oil until soft and translucent. Add garlic and cook for another minute or two, but do not allow to burn.

- Add canned tomatoes, seasonings, TVP and additional water and cook for about 30 minutes more.
- Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar.
- We serve this both in traditional tacos and over rice, topped with all the fixings - tomatoes, avocados, cucumbers, salsa, cheese, sour cream, hot sauce, etc.

VEGETARIAN TACOS WITH AVOCADO SAUCE
These easy vegetarian tacos are filled with black beans, roasted vegetables, and a delicious creamy avocado tomatillo sauce. Feel free to use any roasted vegetables you like here. Sweet potatoes, winter squash, poblano peppers, and/or roasted onions would all be great.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400° F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the chopped eggplant, squash, red pepper and tomatoes onto the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and pinches of salt and pepper and roast until golden brown around the edges 25-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce. In a food processor, blend together the tomatillo salsa, pepitas, avocado, spinach, olive oil, lime juice and pinches of salt and pepper, to taste. Chill until ready to use.
- Assemble the tacos with the black beans, roasted vegetables, diced avocado, cilantro, serrano, and cotija, if using, and generous scoops of sauce. Serve with extra sauce on the side.
VEGETARIAN TACO FILLING VERSION II
This is a great meatless substitute for the seasoned ground beef you find in many Mexican recipes. I find I've been making this recipe WITH the addition of black beans more and more. I use this over nachos, or as a filling for tacos, burritos, or enchiladas. Because of the wonderful spices in the mixture, I find that alot of my favorite "meat-eaters" really don't miss the ground beef at all!! ; >

Steps:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add meatless ground burger, water and spices.
- Mix well and let simmer for 10-15 minutes until heated through and water is absorbed.
- Add black beans and simmer another 5 minutes.
- Use this mixture to replace the seasoned ground beef in any of your favorite Mexican recipes!
- Another note* One can use 1 cup of TVP in place of the soy crumbles or Boca. You might need a bit more that 1 cup of water to keep mixture from getting too dry.
