Vegan Big Mac Tacos

Just like the Big Mac burger from You Know Who, this is a decadent, hearty dinner – in a taco shell. 

Scale

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise

1/3 cup ketchup

1 tbsp. onion powder

2 tbsp. sweet pickle relish

Salt, to taste

2 burger patties of your choice (we used Beyond)

4 crispy taco shells (we used blue corn)

4 slices plant-based cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded lettuce, or to taste

1 tomato, diced

1 onion, diced finely

8 pickle chips

2 tsp. sesame seeds

Instructions

First, make your Thousand Island “special sauce” by mixing the mayonnaise, ketchup, onion powder, pickle relish and salt. Set aside for serving later.

Next, heat up the burger patties in a pan and then crumble them up with your spatula. Keep cooking at medium-high heat (you might want to turn it down to medium-low once things really get rolling) until the burgers, now essentially ground “beef,” are cooked through.

As the patties cook, heat the taco shells in the oven according to package directions. Ours usually take about 7 minutes at 350 degrees.

Once the burgers are broken up and cooked thoroughly and the taco shells are piping hot, it’s time to assemble the Big Mac Tacos! First, line the taco shell with a slice of cheese. (It may break in half. No biggie.) Next, spoon a generous helping of burger crumbles. Next, add diced onion and tomato. Top that with shredded lettuce, and then some pickle chips. Finally, spoon a heaping portion of Thousand Island on top and then dust the whole thing with some sesame seeds.

Serve with your favorite side item (we’re partial to rice, but fries would be a suitable choice given the burger nature of the meal!). And enjoy!
