Vegetarian Tacos with Lime Cabbage Slaw and Black Beans | 30 days with out Meat

Vegetarian Tacos with Lime Cabbage Slaw and Black Beans


As part of our Meals Without Meat 30 day challenge we prepared Vegetarian tacos made with Field Roast Chipotle Sausage. A Seattle local company that makes Grain Meat.

We were surprised about how good the spice and flavor of the "sausage" was. We sauteed it with onions in a pan until it broke apart and resembled ground meet. I honestly think you could serve this to any bonified meat eater and while they might think it was chicken they would never guess it was not meat. Challenge Excepted! Next time I have family up I will test out my theory. Brother just wait :)

I know some of you may think "How can you eat "fake meat"? Or that "Tofu-ie Stuff". Well it not soy based and has alot of everyday item in it. It was found by Buddhist Monks in the 600s A.D. as a firmer alternative to Tofu. By creating a wheat dough they discovered "Buddha's Food" or as we know it Grain Meat. This was then transformed over year and a Chef in Seattle created Field Roast.

Next time your making your Meatless Monday meals think of Field Roast. It is worth giving a try.
