Ingredients
- 1 cup of brown lentils rinsed and thoroughly drained
- 2 cups of vegetable broth
- 1 cup of rolled oats
- 1 Tablespoon of all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon of dried onion flakes
- 1 cube of no-chicken or vegetable bouillon/paste equivalent
- ¼ teaspoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- 1 teaspoon of cumin
- ½ teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of chili powder
- ¼ teaspoon of cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon of oil
- 2 Tablespoons of minced onion
- 12 to 14 corn tortillas
- 1 medium onion minced (for topping)
- 1 bunch of cilantro minced (for topping)
Instructions
- Place lentils in a saucepan with vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the water has evaporated and the lentils are soft. Drain and place in a food processor with oats. Add flour, onion flakes, bouillon, sugar, and spices in a food processor and process until combined. Add 1 tablespoon at a time of extra vegetable broth if you need it.
- In a large skillet, heat a bit of oil on medium-high heat and add the 2 Tablespoons of minced onions. Saute until slightly browned. Add the filling mixture from the food processor and heat until browned.
- Warm corn tortillas, fill with filling, and top with cilantro and onion, if using.

Notes
- Don’t skip warming the corn tortillas. It softens them and makes them easier to fold without breaking and they taste better.
- Use brown or green lentils for the best texture. Red or yellow lentils are too mushy when cooked to make good plant-based tacos.
- Add more taco toppings if you want! There’s lots of room to jazz up your vegan street tacos and make them your own. Add salsa, veggies, or anything else you want!
