THE POWER OF PLANTS
BLACK BEAN AND ROAST PEPPER TACOS
Even meat lovers are unlikely to balk at a black bean ragù in lieu of beef. The spices, and sweet, sharp tomato sauce are one and the same, so they are every bit as tasty as each other. There contains a good blend of plant proteins in the beans, avocado and corn.
