Vegan chorizo and potato tacos, made with potatoes, homemade vegan tofu chorizo and tortillas. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy this delicious meal!
These tacos are out of this world! Everybody loves them because they’re so tasty and filling, and they only require my vegan tofu chorizo, steamed potatoes and tortillas, that’s it! Then add your favorite toppings and you’re ready to go. I added red onion, fresh cilantro, lime juice and my easy guacamole dip.
If you want to save some time, please feel free to use store-bought vegan chorizo, but I prefer to make it at home because it’s so easy and much healthier. Besides, I can adjust the ingredients and add more or less salt, paprika, etc.
Finding good quality corn tortillas in Spain is almost impossible, so I used flour tortillas. In addition, I think they taste better and are more flexible, but corn tortillas are also okay, and a great gluten-free alternative.
I also prefer to buy them because it’s more convenient, but take a look at my tortillas recipe if you want to make them at home. You can also omit the tortillas and serve the chorizo and potato mixture in a dish with any toppings your heart desires. It will be delicious as well!

August 14, 2018 at 16:57We made this last night along with your vegan tofu chorizo recipe and it was excellent. We added lettuce and tomato for the tacos along with a side of black beans – thankfully we have food left over. 🙂
We will never buy store bought soyrizo again.
Thank you Iosune!!
