Mushroom Tacos are a plant-based, flavorful alternative to traditional tacos, made with sautéed mushrooms, garlic, and spices, then loaded into tortillas with your favorite toppings. Quick, satisfying, and perfect for any taco night.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz cremini or portobello mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 onion, sliced or diced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 6 corn or flour tortillas
  • Optional toppings: avocado, chopped cilantro, shredded red cabbage, salsa, pickled onions, vegan crema

Instructions

  1. Clean and slice mushrooms into thick, even pieces.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté garlic and onions until softened, about 2–3 minutes.
  3. Add mushrooms and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and moisture has evaporated.
  4. Stir in soy sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, and lime juice. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until well combined and fragrant.
  5. Warm tortillas in a dry pan, microwave, or over a gas flame until soft and pliable.
  6. Assemble tacos with mushroom filling and desired toppings. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Do not overcrowd mushrooms in the pan to avoid sogginess.
  • For gluten-free tacos, use corn tortillas and tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Double the recipe for meal prep or larger gatherings.
  • Customize with beans, grilled veggies, or hot sauce as desired.
