Cooking for vegetarians doesn't have to be difficult. Vegetarian food can be delicious, nutritious, easy to prepare and can be enjoyed by all kinds of people. The most popular meat dishes can be adapted as authentic vegetarian dishes that can even taste better. I love avocados and they can always be found in my kitchen. I like to eat them with a little bit of salt and lime, or adding them to my arepas for breakfast. I even like them with my patacones and they definitely can't be missing from my soups and stews. If you're looking for an easy and delicious recipe, then this one is for you. Vegetarians and non-vegetarians will love these crunchy avocado tacos, I promise!
