My simple vegan dinner was awesome! Veggie tacos with gluten free tortillas and corn on the cob is the latest meal to go over well with my meat eating family. I'm vegan and everyone else isn't, but my husband and children asked for seconds on this one. This was such a simple meal to make. I didn't use a prepared recipe, just made my own filling for the gluten free taco shells. Here's what I put together:
Veggie Tacos
Ingredients:-1 Can of Black Beans
-2 Servings of Brown Rice
-1 Can of diced tomatoes
-1/2 of a medium sized onion
-1 Tablespoon of olive oil
-avocado slices (optional)
-Mission Gluten Free Tortillas
Prepare 2 servings of brown rice according to package directions in large pot. Place olive oil in skillet and add onions. Heat onions on medium heat until translucent. Next, rinse 2 cans of black beans. Now, add beans, onions, black beans, and drained diced tomatoes to pot with brown rice. Heat to warm all ingredients.
Heat tortillas in skillet according to package directions, add veggie taco filling, and top with avocado if desired.
Corn On The Cob
Ingredients:-Corn on the Cob
-Veganaise
-Chili Powder
Boil corn. Another option would be to place corn in microwave for 1 minute per piece, then turn it to the opposite side and heat for another minute (e.g. if cooking 1 piece heat for 1 minute, then rotate it to the opposite side and heat for another minute. If cooking 5 pieces heat for 5 minutes, then rotate them and heat for 5 additional minutes). Spread 1/2 serving of veganaise to the corn. Sprinkle with chili powder and enjoy!
This meal was bursting with flavor! The mixture of the onions, rice, beans blended so nicely with the taco shells. I knew it was a hit when my family members who are meat eaters asked for more. Either they really enjoyed it, or they were super hungry because I only fixed a vegan based meal on tonight. Ha! Ha! One's things for sure, it was simple, quick, and flavorful!
