    How to Prepare Tacos Sin Carne [Vegan]

    1. To do this place 1 part TVP in bowl and cover with 1 part boiling water. Place lid on bowl and let sit for five minutes.
    2. While the TVP is re-hydrating, heat up 1 TBSP oil in a pan.
    3. Once hot add onion and saute, stirring often, until lightly brown.
    4. Once onions are ready add chili , garlic, and onion powder, cayenne, oregano, paprika, and cumin. Stir to coat onion.
    5. Add tomatoes. I just use whatever is in my pantry, usually diced tomatoes, and add to taste. The tomatoes add juiciness and flavor but could be omitted all together, in which case add a little extra water when adding tvp to onion mixture.
    6. Add tvp and stir until combined. Let sit simmer for 5 minutes for flavors to soak in.
    7. Prepare your toppings.
