For the Seitan Taco Filling
Add seitan and oil to a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until browned.
Stir in the taco seasoning. Add the water and bring to a simmer. Simmer until most of the water has cooked off and thick sauce is formed.
Assemble tacos with desired toppings.
- You'll want to use ground seitan for this recipe if possible. Seitan is also sold as strips which you could finely chop.
- You can also use a plant-based ground meat produce like Beyond Meat or Impossible Meat rather than seitan. The cooking & seasoning method is the same, except you can skip the oil from the recipe.
- We use a 1 oz standard packet of taco seasoning for these tacos. You can also use 3 tablespoons homemade taco seasoning.
- Topping suggestions include: salsa, vegan cheese, vegan sour cream, avocado, cilantro, pickled red onion, hot sauce.
