Vegetarian Chorizo and Cauliflower Rice Tacos

 

I love tacos, but I don't love meat — Trader Joe's soyrizo to the rescue! I don't even really love real chorizo that much, but I am a huge fan of this vegan product. I love preparing it with cauliflower rice as well, which makes these tacos plant-based and gluten-free. If you are vegan, you can skip the dollop of Greek yogurt, but I like to add it in place of sour cream. 

Ingredients (makes 2 tacos)

  • 2 white corn tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup cauliflower rice
  • Pinch of salt, pepper, and cumin
  • 1/2 cup soyrizo 
  • 1/4 cup chopped cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
  • Handful of cilantro
  • Optional: Two scoops of Greek yogurt
  • Hot sauce, to taste (I like habanero)

1. Heat up olive oil in a small pan on medium heat. Add cauliflower rice along with a dash of salt, pepper, and cumin. Heat for about 2-4 minutes until cauliflower rice gets soft. Transfer rice on top of both tortillas.

2. In the same pan, heat up soyrizo for about 1 minute until it gets warm. Add on top of cauliflower rice. 

3. Top tacos with tomatoes, avocado, and cilantro. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt to each taco, and then drizzle with hot sauce, as desired.
