Quick veggie tacos

I LOVE cooking. But that doesn’t mean that I always love spending half an hour or more preparing a meal after a long day at work. So I like to keep some staple ingredients at the ready for quick, semi-homemade dinners.

These veggie tacos combine both fresh AND processed ingredients, and can be on the table in fifteen minutes. Measurements are loose here - you don’t need a lot of each vegetable if preparing for one!

Ingredients

  • 2 small flour or corn tortillas

  • 1 Tbsp cooking oil

  • Sliced yellow onion

  • Sliced bell peppers

  • Sliced mushrooms

  • 1 clove garlic

  • Soy chorizo

  • 1 Tbsp salsa

  • Drizzle of chipotle ranch dressing (or other spicy sauce), optional

  • Fresh lime


Directions

  1. Heat oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add veggies and garlic and saute for 5 minutes.

  2. Add chorizo and saute another 5-7 minutes. Chorizo should be browned.

  3. Meanwhile, heat tortillas (working one at a time) in a small pan over high heat. Warm on each side about 1 minute.

  4. Assemble the tacos: Fill each tortilla with veggie/chorizo mixture. Top with salsa, sauce and squeezed lime.
