Taco Salad

Today’s lunch was the Quorn Taco Salad 🌮🥗! I subbed out the quorn for shredded mahi in mine, but this recipe will be delicious no matter protein what you use! Want to try jackfruit next time 👀 Also, used goat cheese crumbles instead of the Nut Cheese Sauce from #PlantParadox30. I was in a hurry and forgot to soak my macadamias last night 🙈! It was still

💚 DELICIOSO 💚
