Cuisine Latin-American, Mexican
- 1 pack soy chorizo (any brand, I used Trader Joe's 12oz)
- 1/2 can corn (rinsed and drained)
- 1/2 can black beans (rinsed and drained)
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning (store-bought or my taco seasoning recipe)
- 1 box chickpea pasta (any brand, I used Barilla 8oz box)
Taco Toppings
- 5 tbsp sour cream
- 1 bunch cilantro (minced)
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 5 cups chopped lettuce
- hot sauce
In a large pot, boil water and season with salt. Cook the chickpea pasta according to the box.
While the pasta cooks, remove the casing from the soyrizo. In a hot skillet, add cooking oil and soyrizo. Prepare according to the package directions.
About halfway through, add the corn, black beans, taco seasoning, and water to the skillet. Continue to cook over medium heat.
Once the pasta is done cooking, drain and add pasta to the soyrizo mixture.
Serve with chopped lettuce, sour cream, shredded cheese, and hot sauce. Enjoy!
