Vegan Taco Bean Recipe

Vegan Taco Bean Recipe

By: Megan   

  I made this recipe as a fairly new vegan. I loved tacos and there were absolutely no vegan ground beef options in any of the stores near me. I was going through a bit of a taco withdrawal and was desperate to find anything that could work for tacos. I opened up the pantry and saw numerous cans of beans and thought "hey, I could work with this." I started pulling out the beans and then saw a can of Rotel. I figured it could not be a bad idea, so I drained and rinsed my beans and threw them into a pan with the Rotel and some taco seasoning. I then spotted some rice and boom my meal was completed. Over the years, I have made this recipe in different ways and have perfected it, but I have never actually used measurements because I tend to add ingredients until it feels right, so y'all are going to have to bear with me on this one.

Vegan Taco Beans & Rice

Ingredients

  • 1 can Light Kidney Beans
  • 1 can Dark Kidney Beans
  • 1 can Black Beans
  • 1 can White Beans
  • 1 can Rotel
  • 1/2 cup Frozen Corn
  • approximately 1/4 cup Taco Seasoning
  • 2 Servings of cooked rice
Instructions

1. Drain and rinse all beans and put in a pan on the stove with a can of Rotel.
2. Add frozen corn and taco seasoning and cook on medium heat until the beans are soft.
3. Serve with rice. Eat in a tortilla, taco bowl, or with chips!
I like to add sour cream, cheese, avocado, and lettuce.

Questions I Get As A Vegan Part 3

 Questions I Get As A Vegan Part 3 By: Megan Question: What's your favorite vegan food? There are so many great vegan foods available these days. One of my favorites would have to be the Morningstar Farms corndog. It tastes extremely similar to what I remember corndogs to have tasted like. I also make a Buffalo Chicken Dip which is probably one of my favorite foods that I made. The recipe will be linked below. It is comfort food, and is a great option to take to parties or events where food will be served. Potatoes are probably my favorite food genre. They are very versatile and delicious. I have also never met a potato I didn't like, so you can't really go wrong. Recently, I have been loving the Just Egg scramble. I like to make egg biscuits with them. To me, they taste like eggs, but I also have not had an egg in 3 years so I do not think I am the one to get that comparison from. Even if they do not actually taste like eggs I would say the texture is definitely there and ...

Just a Vegan Girl, Living in a Non-Vegan World

Just a Vegan Girl, Living in a Non-Vegan World By: Megan   Being vegan is not the easiest thing in the world, especially when the world is not made to accommodate vegans. New struggles arise every day and I have learned tips and tricks on how to get around them. Here are a few struggles I have faced while being vegan.     One of the biggest struggles that I face every day is acceptance. There is a surprisingly large amount of people who believe that vegans are in a cult and are being brainwashed. A lot of people are very against veganism. This is a struggle mainly when I go out to eat because some people are cruel enough that when you order a vegan option or say “I'm vegan” they purposefully put animal products in it. There are many stories where restaurants have been saying a product is vegan and using meat products for it because it is cheaper. This is very inconsiderate and irresponsible. This is extremely harmful for people like me because animal products ar...

Why Vegan?

Why Vegan? By: Megan I went vegan (“ a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as possible and practical, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose) on November 1, 2018 (Veganism). My reason to go vegan is a little bit different than most peoples. Most people watch documentaries such as “Cowspiracy”, “What the Health”, or “Forks over Knives”, and decide they want to adopt veganism for the animals, health, or the environment. Not me though. My story is filled with lost hope and lots of doctors. In 2013, I started having random bursts of pain. I would always say my back and legs hurt. After a while of having these pains, I talked to my pediatrician about it. She brushed it off as growing pains even though I had, for the most part, stopped growing. I did not mention it for a couple years and just dealt with the pain and complained to friends and family A LOT. In 2017, I began to have constant pain in every part of my body especiall...
