Savor the bold and smoky flavors of these mushroom al pastor tacos that provide a vegetarian twist on the classic Mexican street food favorite.

Marinated portabella mushrooms take center stage; their hearty texture soaking up the vibrant notes of the traditional al pastor flavors. Caramelized to perfection, the mushrooms are then nestled into warm tortillas and topped with a colorful medley of pineapple, onions, and cilantro.

Elevate the experience by squeezing lime wedge over top and adding the tomatillo salsa, creating a satisfying and meat-free taco delight that is perfect for any #MeatlessMonday lunch or dinner.
