Valérie’s 15 Minute Vegan Recipe

I've been vegan for about 15 years and I have so many favorite vegan meals. In all honestly though, my go-to is whatever I can whip up in about 15 minutes. For nice comfort food, I absolutely love making tacos with fresh ingredients like portobello mushrooms, black beans, brown rice, yellow onion, shredded romaine, avocado, spicy salsa... super delicious combo!
