Zucchini and Portabella mushroom tacos
zucchini and portabella tacos
Evidently, I am a taco lover, this will be my second taco recipe blog. There are so many taco-filling combinations it was inevitable. This recipe is great for when you want something on the lighter side. If you want to make it heartier you can always add beans, tofu, or mock meats.
