Like many others, I often troll Pinterest for new recipes. In that search, I often stumble upon a delicious looking picture with no link to a recipe. ANNOYING RIGHT?! I saw a similar taco bowl, clicked it, no real recipe link. WHY?! I decided, these cannot be too hard to improvise, something I would have to do anyway since the originals appeared to have beef, and went for it. ( Below is the serving size for us PhillyVegans. As a side note, Vinny eats way more than me, I ate 5 while he ate 11, so the serving size may vary.)
Mini Taco Bowls
Serves 2; 16 mini bowls

Topping Ingredients
1/2 Avocado
Salsa
Toffuti Better than Sour Cream

- Add about a tablespoon of refried beans (no need to heat up) and a bit of shredded chicken. (Use personal preference)

- Enjoy!
