This easy meatless taco recipe uses our Taco-Seasoned Plant Protein Mix. You can make the taco crumbles with just water, but we like to add a spoonful of salsa to the water for a flavor boost. In addition to tacos, use these crumbles in a rice bowl, salad or your favorite recipe.

Ingredients
- 1 cup (120 g) Taco Seasoned Plant Protein Mix
- ⅓ cup water
- 1-2 teaspoons salsa (optional)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ½ lime (optional)
Directions
- Put Taco Seasoned Plant Protein Mix into a bowl.
In a separate cup, combine water and salsa. Gradually add liquid into the bowl while stirring frequently with a fork. Stop adding water when the mixture is just moist. If the mix is too dry, add one teaspoon of liquid at a time and continue stirring until the dry mix is no longer visible. Let mixture rest while you heat up the pan. - Heat a wide pan over medium heat. Add oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Break mixture into crumbles and add it to the pan in a single layer. Fry for about 5-6 minutes, stirring regularly, until crispy.
- When the crumbles are brown and crispy, finish with a squeeze of lime for a touch of brightness. Remove the pan from the heat and let the crumbles rest for about 10 minutes.
- Use the crumbles for tacos, burritos, enchiladas and more. It can also be used as an ingredient in your favorite taco filling recipe.
