There’s no actual beef used in these healthy tacos, but my family was 100% convinced they were the real deal. I kept the tacos vegan by using vegan cheese and vegan sour cream. I estimate the calorie count to be about 230 per taco. 90 for the meat-free crumbles, 80 for the wrap, 50 for the cheese and sour cream, 10 for the lettuce, tomato, and salsa. The ultimate in comfort food. Juicy, meaty, beefy, cheesy, filling, and packed with big, bold flavors. They just happens to be vegan and healthy.

Instructions
Add the crumbles, taco seasoning, and water to a medium microwave-safe bowl and stir to combine.
Cover with plastic wrap and heat on high power until just bubbling, about 1 minute. Or cook covered in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat on the stove.
Stir mixture, spoon into shells, top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, optional sour cream, hot sauce, or your favorite taco toppings. Tacos are best enjoyed warm and fresh.
