Soyrizo Tacos With Cashew Cream

Share this blog:

For anyone that’s wondering: you can just buy soyrizo (vegan chorizo substitute) here on Amazon. It’s not something you need to make yourself (even though I’m sure there’s probably a recipe out there).

One thing you do need to make yourself (at least for this recipe) is cashew cream. It adds a great dimension of flavor and depth to a recipe that would otherwise be a bit too plain. In my opinion, you need to eat tacos with some sort of sauce anyway, but not everybody seems to feel the same about that!
