Bold, vibrant flavors with beans, spices, and fresh salsas
Mexican cuisine is naturally bean-centric, making it one of the easiest cuisines to veganize. Black beans, pinto beans, and lentils provide protein while cumin, chili, and lime create those bold, crave-worthy flavors. Traditional Mexican cooking includes many naturally vegan dishes like rice and beans, guacamole, and vegetable-forward salsas.
Cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and garlic create layers of flavor that make vegan Mexican food incredibly satisfying.
Pico de gallo, guacamole, pickled onions, and fresh cilantro add brightness and freshness to every dish.
Roasted cauliflower with Mexican spices creates incredible "carnitas" with crispy edges and tender centers.
Mix chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and a pinch of cayenne. No packet needed - and no hidden additives!
Fresh pico de gallo takes 5 minutes and transforms any dish. Dice tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, and cilantro. Season with lime juice and salt.
Cut cauliflower into florets, toss with oil and Mexican spices, then roast at high heat until crispy. The charred edges are incredible in tacos.
Char tortillas directly over a gas flame or in a dry skillet for best flavor and texture. Cold tortillas break easily and lack that toasty flavor.
