Taco night is the best night of the week. Growing up, most of us had our fair share from a box, but now that we’re adults it’s time to get a little fancier (think: vegetarian tacos, pancake tacos, and even sushi tacos, no pre-packaged spice mix or stale taco shells in sight). And don’t think vegans are left out of the tastiness. Ahead, these 21 vegan recipes will make you want to have taco night every night.
