"I went to a popular local vegan restaurant and ordered a taco salad which I absolutely loved. When I left the restaurant my mission was to try and replicate the recipe, well it took me a few tries until I was happy with my “copycat” version of it and I think my efforts are well worth it. Serve this with tortilla chips to scoop up with."
