22 Easy Vegan Taco Recipes (The Best!)

In the mood for tacos? In our household, we eat tacos almost weekly. They are the number 1 requested meal of both my 3-year old and my husband. We enjoy tacos so often that I had to make a list of all of my favorite vegan taco recipes to share with you. This list features all of the plant-based tacos you need from cauliflower and mushrooms to flavorful tofu. A great thing about tacos is that they are so easy to make. 

Tacos are simple, quick, and crowdpleasers because who doesn’t like tacos? To switch things up, I like to explore different kinds of fresh vegetables, beans, herbs, and seasonings for our tacos.  There are so many great options out there and I firmly believe that like sandwiches, few things don’t work stuffed into a fluffy tortilla. 

Whether you are a long-time vegan or just exploring more plant-based meals–these easy vegan tacos are fail-proof and great for everyone.
