Vegetarian Taco Filling Version II
Vegetarian Taco Filling Version II
Time: 25 mins
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons instant minced onion
- 1 vegetable bouillon cube
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) or 1/4 teaspoon red chili powder, to taste (optional)
- 1 cup water
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (12 ounce) package vegetarian ground beef (I like Boca or Litelife Gimme Lean)
Directions
- 1 In a large skillet over medium heat, add meatless ground burger, water and spices.
- 2 Mix well and let simmer for 10-15 minutes until heated through and water is absorbed.
- 3 Add black beans and simmer another 5 minutes.
- 4 Use this mixture to replace the seasoned ground beef in any of your favorite Mexican recipes!
- 5 Another note* One can use 1 cup of TVP in place of the soy crumbles or Boca. You might need a bit more that 1 cup of water to keep mixture from getting too dry.
