  • Then lower the temperature to medium-low and add the minced garlic and sauté for one minute, then add the cauliflower florets and the Herb/Spice mix, sauté for one minute, stirring constantly to allow the spices to release their fragrance.
  • Next add 2 Tablespoons vegetable broth, liquid smoke, and the tamari, stir well to combine. Then place a tight-fitting lid on the skillet and allow to simmer for 5 minutes.
  • After 5 minutes, remove the lid and add the salsa, corn, beans, and nutritional yeast, stir to combine.
  • Cook uncovered over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Test the tenderness of the veggies, cook until the veggies reach the desired level of tenderness.
  • Test the flavors, add more spices, if necessary, to achieve the level of flavor you desire. Serve in your favorite taco/tortilla shell topped with freshly chopped cilantro, diced red onions, sliced jalapeno peppers, chopped avocadoes, salsa and/or Vegan Sour Cream.
