Today’s Vegetarian Recipe: Spicy Mango Chickpea Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share with you a delicious and unique recipe for Spicy Mango Chickpea Tacos. The flavors in this dish are a fusion of sweet and spicy, perfect for a summery meal or a fun taco night with friends. Let’s dive into the details!

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 can (400g) of canned chickpeas, drained
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 8 small tortillas
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • non-stick skillet
  • wooden spoon

To start, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the drained chickpeas, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and garlic powder to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chickpeas are slightly crispy.

Next, add the diced mango, sliced red onion, and chopped jalapeño to the skillet with the chickpeas. Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the onions are softened.

Warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or in the microwave until they are soft and pliable. Divide the chickpea and mango mixture among the tortillas and top with sliced avocado and chopped cilantro.

Unique Tip:

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a dollop of vegan sour cream or a sprinkle of crumbled cotija cheese on top of your tacos before serving. It adds a creamy and tangy element that complements the spicy mango chickpeas perfectly!

Once assembled, these Spicy Mango Chickpea Tacos weigh approximately 1300 grams total, making 8 servings with an average weight of 162 grams per taco. Each serving is about 250 calories.

I hope you give these Spicy Mango Chickpea Tacos a try and enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite toppings or add a side of rice and beans for a complete meal. Happy cooking!
