25 Mouthwatering Vegan Taco Recipes
5-Minute Easy Vegan Tacos by Happy Kitchen Rocks *. I started off this list with this recipe to show you that tacos don’t have to be extremely elaborate or take tons of time to make to taste good…all you need is 5-minutes!
Crispy Tofu Tikka Masala Tacos with Peppers, Onions, & Chilifire Crema by Vegetarian Gastronomy *. Baking tofu gives it an awesome crispy texture without having to do the work of frying! Pair it up with my favorite ready-to-go tikka masala seasoning and quick 1-minute creamy sauce!
Crispy Avocado Tacos with Slaw & Avocado Cream by Blissful Basil *. Avocados are my favorite and can easily be added to any taco, but sometimes they need to be the star of a dish!
Crispy Coconut Lime Baked Cauliflower Tacos by Veggie Inspired. The flavors of this one had me right away! Coconut & lime combined with crispy tender cauliflower!
Vegan Butternut Squash Tacos with Chipotle Black Beans by Avocado Pesto. Sweet butternut squash paired with black beans is a must.
Four Bean, Quinoa, & Veggie Tacos by Vegetarian Gastronomy. No major cooking or baking required. Simply toss everything together and let the natural flavors of the ingredients work magic! I demo’d and served these tacos at both a Whole Foods cooking class and at a Vegan Day event for more than 100 people!
One-Tray Tacos with Fresh Mango Salsa by Lauren Caris Cooks *. That mango though…gets me everytime.
Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos with Cucumber Ranch by Vegetarian Gastronomy *. Tangy, spicy, cool, and creamy! This crowd pleasing taco will instantly turn you into a cauliflower lover!
Lime & Cornmeal Crusted Potato Tacos by The Vegan 8. Potato tacos were one of the first non-traditional taco I’d tried years back, and this lime and cornmeal crusted version just took it up a notch.
Jamaican Jerk Black Bean Tacos with Roasted Corn Tacos by Vegan Richa *. Trying out new spices and seasonings is what tacos are all about!
Saucy Portobello & Butternut Squash Tacos by Minimalist Baker *. That spicy adobe sauce paired with portobello and roasted butternut squash. These were a favorite at my holiday party last year!
Roasted Portobello Tacos with Chimichurri Sauce by Connoisseurus Veg. The chimichurri sauce caught my eye with these tacos! One of my favorite sauces to use in so many different dishes!
Vegan Tacos with Lentil Walnut Meat by Vegan Heaven. I’m always looking for new ways to enjoy lentils!
