I would say that these portobello tacos are a great vegetarian taco alternative but theyre so much more than that. To hell with being an alternative, these are stand-alone delicious. Smoky, chewy portobello mushroom strips, creamy avocado, crunchy tart cabbage, and a tomato-chipotle salsa. Goodness gracious, these tacos have everything!
