What counts is, they taste great and can fix you a fast healthy lunch or dinner. Plus...you get to be creative! Use up any leftovers from your fridge and dare to experiment with the flavors. So here is my twist. Enjoy reading!
EASY VEGAN & GLUTEN-FREE FLATBREAD TACOS
VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE
YIELD: makes around 6 flatbread tacos
INGREDIENTS:
For the flatbread tacos
1 cup of buckwheat flour
1 cup of teff flour
2 1/2 cups of water or any plant-based milk
1/2 to 1 tsp of Himalayan salt
For the cashew sour cream
200g of cashews
The juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/4 tsp of garlic, onion, coriander, black pepper and cumin
1/2 to 1 cup of water depending on the desired thickness of the cream
Salt to taste
Toppings
Black beans*
Brown rice*
Spinach
Diced tomatoes and red onions
Cashew sour cream
Shredded carrots
Parsley (optional)
Salt to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Flatbread tacos
Mix the flours and the salt in a bowl.
Add the water or plant-based milk gradually while mixing your batter.
Continue until a pancake texture is achieved.
Heat up a non-stick pan (I use a stainless steel one) and cook the batter on both sides until done. You can use a small soup ladle to measure each portion and pour it into the pan.
Cashew sour cream
Blend everything in a high-speed blender until a smooth creamy consistency. Use as much water as you need to achieve the desired consistency- one of a cream or sauce.
Assemble everything
Spread some cashew sour cream on top of the flatbread tacos.
Top with any of the preferred toppings.
Add a pinch of salt and/or the Italian spice blend.
Voilà! Enjoy!
NOTES:
* Soak your black beans and brown rice overnight and cook according to instructions.
