Sazón Mushroom Tacos

Tacos are probably my all time favorite food to eat.. Sometimes want a taco that doesn't require a whole lot of preparations. You know...the sauces, toppings, avocado and such. Just a super simple, delicious, minimal effort taco and that is exactly what this recipe is.. A few simple but flavorful ingredients. Recently, my sister Tia (an awesome vegan cook who keeps a very intense watchful eye on up and coming vegan brands and products) came across the Louise brand of seasonings. I absolutely love the authentic Spanish flavor and super clean ingredients. I used them in these tacos for the first time and I was like "DAAAAYYYYUMMM these are good". Now I am completely obsessed wth them. I also used the Volife Colby Jack Shreds and it was spot on. If you want to check out these brands you can find the cheese at most Whole Foods stores and the seasonings online here.
