Vegans Can Eat Tacos, Too!

5/16/2012

It was Kate's boyfriend Dan's turn to make dinner last Thursday night, and he decided to make tacos. Since Kate is a vegan and enjoys proving to her friends that vegans can still eat scrumptious meals, she invited me and my friend Irene over for something I have never had before: vegan tacos. 
Picture
Dan started by chopping and baking a plethora of peppers (including jalapenos) and corn. 
Picture
He also made seasoned potatoes on the stove top. 
Picture
Extra fillings for the tacos included homemade guacamole, salsa, and limes. 
Picture
The fillings were held together on a whole wheat soft wrap. Dan melted cheese onto his wrap and I considered doing the same, but that would mean that I wasn't eating a vegan taco!
Picture
My dinner may not have included animal products, but it was y-u-m-m-y! The peppers gave it so much flavor that I didn't even miss the cheese. I've actually considered being a vegan before since I have an intolerance to dairy (but still eat large concentrations of cheese anyway), but I worry about having a difficult time eating out at restaurants. Plus, I really, really love cheese. I think I might be okay if I ate these tacos every day, though!

I can't wait to show you the pictures from my bachelorette party!
