Recipes Main courses Sugar-free Vegetarian Gluten-free

Mexican, or rather Tex-Mex, is my sneaky comfort food. I love it lol! I think it's combination of a little cheese and the spicy flavor. Nacho chips on the side and it's complete for me. Most Tex-Mex dishes contain chicken or minced meat, but I don't mind a little less meat on the table once in a while during the week. Therefore, a tasty vegetarian taco with avocado. It is easy to prepare and ready in about 20 minutes. Ideal for after work!

How do you make a vegetarian taco?

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
Cut the eggplant and red pepper into cubes. Chop the onion and finely chop the garlic clove.
Heat some oil in a pan and fry the onion and garlic. Then add the eggplant and pepper and bake for about 5 minutes. Then add the tomato cubes. Let this simmer for about 5 minutes.
In the meantime, put the tacos in the oven. They only have to warm up and are ready in about 6 minutes.
Cut the avocado in half, peep it and then cut into small cubes.
Add the herbs and salt and pepper to the eggplant mixture. I use about a teaspoon of bell pepper and cumin powder, but especially taste what you like.
Rinse the lentils and let them drain and then add it to the rest of the vegetables. Let it heat up for a minute or 2.
Remove the tacos from the oven and divide the vegetable mixture. Garnish with grated cheese and pieces of avocado.
