Answer 1

Use veggie crumbles to replace ground beef in any recipe.



Try my salsa:



My own recipe. Use on good chips like El Milagro (sold in a paper bag) or El Ranchero. Heat the chips on foil in the oven at 200 degrees for a few minutes for warm restaurant style chips.





29 OZ. TOMATO SAUCE ( I USE HUNT'S)

½ MEDIUM ONION

3 JALAPENOS

1 BANANA PEPPERS/HUNGARIAN WAX PEPPER

1 FRESH CAYENNE PEPPER (OR DRIED)

3-5 DRIED CHILES DE ARBOL

1/2 MEDIUM RED BELL PEPPER (NO SEEDS)

2-3 CLOVES GARLIC

¾ T LEMON JUICE

½ t SALT

HANDFUL OF CILANTRO



PUT ALL INGREDIENTS IN A FOOD PROCESSOR AND RUN UNTIL FULLY CHOPPED AND BLENDED.

Answer 2

Black or refried beans (or any beans, yet black and refried are extra "autentic"; Even pinto) can sub for meat. that's what I do at Mexican eating places, even Taco Bell on the very uncommon events that i pass there. (i do no longer evaluate Taco Bell actual Mexican, yet Mexican wannabe.) maximum taco seasoning and sauces are vegan, as were reported; in basic terms examine the labels. The cool factor approximately Mexican is that that's versitile. My husband is a meat eater and that i'm vegan. we are able to stroll right into a Mexican eating place and are available the two come out happy.

Answer 3

I'm a vegan and I could live off of Mexican food. It's my favorite! Many Mexican restaurants can prepare burritos, tacos and salads without dairy products, just be sure to ask about how the foods are prepared (oils, butters, etc.). If you're on the go and have to eat cheap Mexican food (Taco Bell), there are also a few vegan options: Bean Burrito (minus cheese), Taco Salad (minus meat, cheese and sour cream), 7 Layer Burrito (minus cheese and sour cream).

Answer 4

I think the 80% of mexican food, could be replaced the meat for soy meat.



For example i did veg picadillo, because my uncles are veg, and i was hungry hahaha.



Cut a potato in med-small squares, then fry them.



For the meat, put water to the soymeat, then take off the water, and smash until they get dry again and looks like meat.

Then fry the meat adding salt, pepper and oregan.



For the sauce, in the blender, add like 3 tomatoes, half onion, one jalapeno chili, oregan, salt, one galic teeth, and pepper.



Then put all in a pan, and put it top, and leave it to low fire like 15 mins.



And i can't found the difference within soymeat and cowmeat, hahaha,

regards.
