Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 large grilled Portobello mushrooms, sliced into thin strips
  • Adobo sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo, for brushing (optional, for spicy mushrooms)
  • 8 corn or flour tortillas, warmed

Toppings

  • Avocado salsa
  • Pickled red onions
  • Cilantro
  • Lime wedges, for serving


Instructions

  1. Grill the Mushrooms: Prepare the Portobello mushrooms by grilling them until tender and flavorful according to a grilled mushrooms recipe or your preferred grilling method.
  2. Brush with Adobo Sauce: For a spicy kick, brush the sliced, grilled mushrooms with chipotle adobo sauce. If you prefer a milder taco, you can skip this step.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: Gently warm the corn or flour tortillas to make them pliable and enhance their flavor.
  4. Assemble the Tacos: Layer the warmed tortillas with the grilled mushroom strips, avocado salsa, pickled red onions, and fresh cilantro.
  5. Serve with Lime Wedges: Serve the assembled tacos with lime wedges on the side for an optional burst of citrusy freshness.

Notes
