Soft Shell Veggie Tacos come together in about 10 minutes with fresh vegetables and lactose-free cheese. This quick and easy recipe is perfect for meatless meals! Adjust the heat and flavor profile depending on the salsa you use.

Soft Shell Vegetable Tacos with Avocado and Salsa

I have been experimenting with vegan and vegetarian recipes even more than usual lately. I would say that my husband and I eat plant-based meals about 90% of the time, without even trying. Of course, however, I am always looking for new and fun meatless recipes. Enter GO VEGGIE'S Soft Shell Veggie Tacos. Easy to make, speedy, and delicious!

GO VEGGIE provides countless tasty recipes on their website. Simply go to their Kitchen page and start browsing. You can filter recipes according to your lifestyle/diet, product type, meal, and specialty. While you're scrolling, you may even see a familiar recipe-my Dairy-Free Pizza Pockets!

Soft Shell Tacos with Lactose Free Cheese

Giving up dairy or staying away from lactose due to diet restrictions is so much easier with alternatives and substitutions. GO VEGGIE has several healthier cheese alternatives, whether you're looking for lactose-free, soy-free, gluten-free, or vegan cheese, they have a type for you! From shreds to singles, and cream cheese to grated topping and more, my fridge is always stocked.

Okay, back to the tacos! Everybody has their favorite. Maybe you like to keep it classic with seasoned ground beef or grilled chicken, or maybe you like to spice it up a bit with carnitas or fish. But if you're looking for a meatless taco option that is tasty and filling enough to please everyone, you can't go wrong with vegetable tacos. I have always loved soft shells but one look at the label can have your jaw on the ground from the calories-even as a non-calorie-counter. These veggie tacos are wrapped in my homemade tortillas made from two simple ingredients: masa and water. I highly recommend giving them a try!

Dairy Free Soft Shell Tacos

Soft Shell Veggie Tacos come together in just minutes. Simply cook vegetables until softened, load up each tortilla with veggies, avocado, and lactose-free shreds, then serve with your choice of salsa and a lime. The best part about veggie tacos is you get to make them your own. Not a fan of spice? Go for a mild pico de gallo. Want to add an extra dimension to your taco? Check out some pineapple salsa. Stuff your tortillas full of all the stuff you want and enjoy!
