Print Options
Description
A great alternative to beef or chicken tacos, these use all the same seasonings and toppings, but with chickpeas. A quick and easy vegetarian/vegan meal!
Ingredients
- FOR THE TACOS:
- 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- ¼ whole Red Onion, Minced
- 1-½ cup Cooked Chickpeas (Or Canned Chickpeas, Drained And Rinsed)
- FOR THE GUACAMOLE:
- 2 whole Ripe Avocados
- ½ whole Vine-Ripened Tomato, Diced
- ¼ whole Red Onion, Finely Diced
- 1 whole Lime, Juiced
- ¼ teaspoons Salt, Plus More To Taste
- FOR THE TACO SEASONING:
- ½ Tablespoons Chili Powder
- ½ teaspoons Smoked Paprika
- ½ teaspoons Cumin
- ¼ teaspoons Dried Oregano
- ¼ teaspoons Kosher Salt
- ¼ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- ¼ teaspoons Cornstarch
- ⅛ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
- ¼ cups Water
- FOR SERVING:
- 6 whole Hard-Shell Tacos Or Medium-Sized Tortillas
- Chopped Cilantro
- Lime Wedges
Preparation
First, prepare the guacamole. Cut the avocados in half from stem to top and remove the pit. Scoop the avocado flesh out of the peel into a large bowl. Mash with a fork or potato masher, leaving some chunks. Add diced tomato, onion, lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir, then salt to taste. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine all taco seasoning ingredients, including water. The tacos come together quickly, so it’s best to have this taken care of first!
For the taco filling: In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once shimmering, add the garlic and onion and saute until onion is soft, 3-4 minutes.
Pour in chickpeas and taco seasoning, and stir to combine. Saute, stirring occasionally, until chickpeas are heated through and some of the water is evaporated, 2-3 minutes.
Serve the filling inside of taco shells topped with guacamole, cilantro and lime wedges. Devour!
Makes 6 tacos. Taco seasoning adapted from Budget Bytes.
