Notes
Use this vegan chorizo in tacos, burritos, bowl meals, or anywhere else you'd use animal-based or store-bought vegan chorizo.No-cook option: Omit the onion and garlic, and substitute with 1 teaspoon each onion powder and garlic powder. The raw onion/garlic will be too strong, if you aren't going to cook to mellow the flavors.
