Vegan Tacos 

I want to live every day like it’s taco Tuesday. The joy and anticipation is just too good! Taco Tuesday for me has reached a whole other level because of these vegan tacos! It’s refried beans and tahini and pink pitaya sauce. I could just eat the sauce on its own. Is that weird?

Recipe

Ingredients: 

Refried beans: 

1 can of black beans

1/2 cup of chopped onion

1 clove garlic

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

3 tbsp mustard 

Pinch of salt

Tahini Pink Pitaya Sauce 

1/2 cup chickpea flour

1/4 cup almond milk or any plant based milk

1 tbsp sesame seeds

Pinch of salt

Juice of half lemon

1 clove garlic 

Pink Pitaya powder (optional)

*If too runny, add more flour. If too chunky, add more liquid. 

Directions:

1. Mix all refried beans ingredients  together in a blender. Put in pan on medium heat. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes stirring occasionally. For a really thick consistency, fry for longer. 

2. Chop up avocados, cherry tomatoes, spinach, onions, peppers, corn and mushrooms (and whatever else you want to add). 

3. Make tahini sauce in a blender. 

4. Heat up taco shells and add beans then spinach and then the rest of the ingredients. 

5. Squeeze tahini sauce on top and enjoy!
