Home-made Vegan Chorizo Seitan Tacos

These home-made vegan tacos were made with crumbled Upton's Chorizo Seitan and Miyoko's Farmhouse Cheddar on white corn tortillas. 

 

This was very good. Like most vegan cheeses, the Miyoko's cheddar did not want to melt. That's why my tortilla got a bit dark on top. The Upton's Chorizo Seitan was just a bit dry. but taco sauce fixed that. I was baking this, so that could be the reason this was not as moist and melted as desired. No big deal. Both products are good.

Upton's Naturals Bacon Seitan

This vegan bacon is really good. I was never a huge bacon fan back in my omnivore days, but I did like it on sandwiches because of its crunchy texture and salty taste. Herbivores can have a very similar experience with Upton's Bacon Seitan.

I fried this seitan in a skillet and put it on vegan bread with lettuce, tomato and vegan mayonnaise. This didn't taste exactly like real bacon, but that's okay. This bacon wasn't made with the filthy carcass of a slaughtered animal. This is vegan bacon!

Upton's Naturals Bar-B-Que Jackfruit

Here's another Upton's plant-based product that all vegans should try. This stuff is like pulled pork but without the death and disease.

Checkout the texture. It's not as heavy, dirty, and offensive as I remember pork to be. This is a lighter, good karma version of pork. I ate mine on French bread with spicy mustard and Follow Your Heart Vegenaise.

Upton's Naturals Bar-B-Que Jackfruit

I wanted to try something new, so I grabbed some Upton's Naturals Bar-B-Que Jackfruit and some slaw ingredients to make a vegan barbecue sandwich.

This was the final product; a delicious pile of plant-based food that tastes as good or even better than meat. The vegan slaw details are posted separately if you're interested in that.

Upton's has a good product here. It tastes like a barbecue product, but I wouldn't say it tastes like meat. Real meat has a nasty, oily stickiness and sits heavy on the stomach. This has a lighter, cleaner, fresher taste and texture. The only thing is that it was a bit dry. Once I added the vegan slaw it was perfect. As far as I know, no one died a traumatic death for this meal, this meal will not increase my chances of getting colon cancer, and this meal will not give me atherosclerosis.
