Plantain Tacos

We recommend serving these tacos with homemade guacamole and dollops of our Habanero Hot Sauce.

Ingredients:
Plantain Tortilla:

1 green plantain

Guacamole:

See recipe below

Taco Filling:

Small head of cauliflower or a package of cauliflower rice

6 oz of cremini mushrooms

2 Tbsp of Liquid Aminos

2 Tbsp chili powder

2 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp smoked paprika

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

¼ tsp ground pepper

¼ tsp salt

Tomato

lettuce

Directions:
Plantain Tortilla:

Preheat oven to 350˚F

Cut plantain with skin on
Note: the skin falls off after removing from the water.

Boil until soft

Process boiled, skinless plantain in a food processor until it resembles dough

Divide dough into small portions Note: plantains can be sticky! Wet your hands to make it easier to work with.

Place one portion between two pieces of parchment paper and rull until thin

Remove one layer of parchment paper, place a small cereal bowl on top, and carefully cut the plantain tortilla with a pizza cutter, making sure not to cut the parchment.

Trim the parchment edges, leaving at least an inch overlap.

Place the plantain tortilla over two slats of your oven rack, with the parchment side to the oven rack to prevent sticking.

Bake until crispy.

Guacamole:

See recipe below.

Taco Filling:

Preheat oven to 350°F

Lightly pulse the cauliflower and mushrooms in a food processor until you have a rice like consistency. Skip this step if using packaged cauliflower rice.

Mix cauliflower, mushroom, Liquid Aminos & spices in a large bowl.

Spread mixture onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.

Stir lightly and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes.

Fill the plantain tortilla with the filling, add guacamole, tomato, lettuce and enjoy!
