I’ve been obsessed with the simple process of making juicy flavorful taco fillings since I made these Berbere Spiced Jackfruit Tacos. The process is easy, just shred up jackfruit, or soy curls or meat subs, toss with spices or sauces or both, and bake to preferred texture. It cannot get easier than that.
For the version today, I used butler soy curls and onion that get shredded in a processor and tossed in bbq sauce, seasoning, and some mango puree. Just mix and bake! You can use all bbq sauce or use other purees such as pumpkin, sweet potato, some pineapple juice instead of mango. Flavorful, Easy and Delicious! Serve in tacos, wraps with creamy slaw or avocado, or quesadillas, or sandwiches with extra bbq sauce or add to a bowl.
