Happy Meatless Monday Friends!
I write this as I sit outside on a beautiful Monday evening, after just enjoying a fantastic and flavorful meal. I found my inspiration off Pinterest, where I find many of my meal ideas after a long day of work when I really don't feel like being 100% creative.
So tonight, I made some vegan Tofu & Citrus Tacos w/ Quinoa. After just polishing off my plate and contemplating seconds and thirds, I decided to write about it instead. However, instead of wasting all my time typing the recipe, I'll just say you can find it here from Healthy Happy Life. I made a few changes which I will note in just a moment, but I just want to say how freakishly delicious these tacos are. They are so fresh, light, and flavorful that you won't want to stop eating them! So for Meatless Monday or just any old day of the week, give 'em a whirl... You'll be glad you did!
Revisions
1- I added a little extra kale, parsley, and cilantro to the quinoa because I love them all so!
2- When I cooked the quinoa, I fist mixed the quinoa in a spice mixture for extra flavor. I used 2 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. each: chili powder, cumin, coriander, garlic powder, and a small pinch of cayenne powder.
3-I omitted the hemp seeds b/c I didn't have them and used 1 T. whole flaxseeds instead of the ground ones.
Other than that, I pretty much kept the recipe the same. It's really great just the way it is! So without further-ado... Here are my photos!

SO making this next week! Where can I find goji berries?
ReplyDeleteI found them in the bulk section of Sprouts. They are quite pricy, about 12.99 a pound but you only need like 1-2 tablespoons of them. However, they are not necessary, but they are a super food! Let me know how the tacos turn out!
