These mushroom tacos are “the most requested dish at family gatherings and potlucks with friends,” writes Edgar Castrejón in his book, Provecho: 100 Vegan Mexican Recipes to Celebrate Culture and Community, all about vegan Mexican and Latin American cooking. While Castrejón recommends chanterelle mushrooms for their “chewy texture that satisfies, like a meat filling,” almost any combination of mushrooms, torn or cut into bite-size pieces, works well in this recipe. Toss the mushrooms energetically to ensure the spice mix gets into all the nooks and crannies. As good as the seasoned mushrooms are, the tacos really come alive with the toppings, so don’t sleep on those.
