It doesn’t have to be Tuesday for you to indulge in a little taco action. These vegan, Mexican-inspired jackfruit tacos feature all the best toppings, plus they’re easy to make. And you don’t have to worry about the guac being extra.
The largest tree fruit in the world, jackfruit is an incredibly versatile ingredient in the kitchen. Its neutral, slightly sweet flavor allows it to absorb the flavors and seasonings of any dish. Its tender, stringy texture is also similar to that of shredded pork or chicken, making it the perfect choice for these delectable tacos.
This taco recipe features a flavor-packed profile. The jackfruit is seasoned with garlic, ground cumin, salt, smoked paprika, chili powder, oregano, and maple syrup. Top the jackfruit with your favorite taco toppings: vegan sour cream, shredded lettuce and cabbage, mashed avocado or guacamole, and fresh cilantro and enjoy.
