Crispy Mushroom Tacos

Meaty mushrooms are not your typical taco filling, but you have to try these! The creamy salsa sauce, sharp cheddar cheese and sauteed veggies are all wrapped up in a crispy taco shell, making for the perfect bite. Serve this with a side of beans and guacamole for a delicious and simple weeknight meal.

  1. Preheat oven to 425 and brush a large rimmed baking sheet with olive oil.

2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shittake mushrooms, red onion and red bell pepper and saute until soft, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add water and taco seasoning and cook for 1 minute longer.

3. Meanwhile, combine sour cream and salsa in a small bowl. Spread sour cream mixture evenly onto each tortilla and top with cheese. Place sauteed veggies onto one side of the tortilla and fold over. Place tacos on the prepared baking sheet and brush with olive oil.

4. Bake for 10 minutes; flip and bake for 5 minutes longer. Once out of the oven, allow the tacos to rest for 5 minutes, then enjoy!
