Vegan Taco Salad
Description
Everything you love about tacos comes together in one fresh and flavorful Vegan Taco Salad. Plant-based crumbles are sautéed with onion, black beans, and taco seasoning until savory and nicely browned, then spooned over a crisp bed of iceberg lettuce. Juicy tomatoes, fresh cilantro, diced onion, and vegan cheese add layers of color, texture, and classic taco flavor.
Serve it in a crunchy tortilla bowl for the full taco-salad experience, or keep things simple with your favorite serving bowl and a handful of tortilla chips. Add a drizzle of Spicy 1000 Island Dressing, then bring on the Pico De Gallo, Classic Guacamole, and more tortilla chips for a fun, customizable meal that turns salad night into something worth looking forward to.
