Baked Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos
Crispy, spicy, hearty, satisfying, and tasty! Yes, please! I am talking about these delicious vegan Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos. Because who doesn’t love taquitos?! Did you ever make homemade taquitos? They are super easy to make actually and since I tried them for the first time a few months ago I am hooked. Taquitos are a great snack, just think about your favorite Netflix series and all these hearty taquitos in front of you. Perfect evening, right?
Chicken-Free recipe!
After a quick Google search for Buffalo Taquitos, I found about a million “Buffalo Chicken Taquitos”. Seriously, this isn’t very nice, especially since I have a pet chicken called ERNA. Yes, Erna is my rescue chicken and she is living with me for 10 months now. She is quite a character and pretty popular because her story was shared on “The Dodo”. My Instagram followers love her. If you want to see Erna in action, go and check out my highlighted Insta stories. Here is a picture of Erna:
Having said that, I really cannot imagine that someone would kill my sweetheart Erna just for the pleasure of eating a dish for a few minutes.
There are so many cruelty-free plant-based alternatives to meat which are healthy, protein-rich, and tasty. Like these Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos, for example. Once you try them you might change your mind. Erna would be very glad if other people would stop eating her friends.
Quick and Easy Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos
It took me only about half an hour to make these crispy Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos. This recipe is super easy to make and I bet you probably already have most (or all) ingredients at home. You’ll just need tortillas, chickpeas, a bell pepper, one onion, garlic, tomato sauce, hot sauce, and some spices. So if you are looking for a quick vegan dinner or snack, this easy recipe is perfect for you!
These Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos are:
- Spicy
- Flavorful
- Hearty
- Plant-based (Vegan)
- Chicken-free (“Erna”-free)
- Gluten-free
- Crispy
- Easy to make
- A great comfort dish
- Satisfying
Baked not deep fried
These vegan taquitos will turn out crispy even when you bake them in the oven. There is no need to deep fry them. I mean, you could deep fry them but I always get sick when I eat deep fried food so I prefer to bake my taquitos. The secret is to brush them with a little bit of oil (1 tbsp oil is enough for 10 taquitos) and bake them in the oven until they are golden brown and crispy!
Spicy Buffalo Chickpea Taquitos
Since I like spicy meals I often add chili powder to my savory dishes. Because every person has different taste buds though, it’s difficult to recommend the right amount of hot sauce and chili powder. 3 tbsp of hot sauce and a pinch of chili powder will add a pleasant spiciness, at least to my taste buds.
If you dislike spicy meals you better leave out the chili powder completely and just add 1 tbsp (or even less) of hot sauce. And if you are like my boyfriend, who slathers his food in chili powder, I would recommend adding more hot sauce and more chili powder until you are happy with the spiciness.
If you make this delicious meal and maybe even take a photo of it, then I would love to see it. You can DM it to me on Instagram. Don’t forget to tag me in your Insta caption + photo with @elavegan and use the hashtag #elavegan and I will gladly check out your post. And if you are a fan of Buffalo Chickpea recipes, definitely also try out my Avocado Chickpea Pizza which is gluten-free and vegan as well.

I made this recipe for dinner and it was amazing. My husband and I loved it. I didn’t have tomato sauce so I used a bit of tomato paste mixed with water. I didn’t make it vegan as I used non-vegan cheese. So delicious I will definitely make it again
I am glad you and your husband loved it. Thanks for your feedback. ๐
This turned out great! Will definitely make again!
So glad it turned out great. ๐
Fantastic recipe, and so easy! I’m not a bell pepper fam, so instead of peppers I added a lot of chopped cauliflower. Made them last week and back for more tonight. Thanks for sharing!!
Fantastic! Adding cauliflower is a great idea. Thanks for your feedback, Lori. ๐
Would this recipe work with flour tortillas? And still turn out crispy? I have every single ingredient minus corn tortillas and would love to not have to go to the grocery store!
Yes, I am pretty sure they will turn out fine. I didn’t use corn tortillas though, I used homemade grain-free / gluten-free tortillas, linked in the post. ๐
I donโt see the link to the tortillas?
Can you share it here?
Sure, here is the link: https://elavegan.com/gluten-free-tortillas-recipe
Amazing!!!! Made these with my boyfriend who is a total meat eater and he LOVED them that we made them three times in 2 weeks :). Definitely will be adding this to my recipe book!!! Thanks for an amazing recipe
Aww, that’s awesome, Vanessa. Happy you both loved them. ๐
Tried these and I loved them. I topped w/ vegan cheddar jack cheese. I love meals like this, quick, easy, and simple ingredients.
That’s awesome, Taylor! Thanks for your great feedback. ๐
Can these be frozen after cooking?
Yes, that should be fine, Kendall. ๐
Ready good!! Going on my favorite recipes list!
That’s awesome, Lynda. ๐
Absolutely delicious!! I canโt thank you enough for the recipe. 5 stars!!!
You are very welcome ๐
Do you think these could be made ahead of time (rolled, but not baked) and baked the next day?
I never tried it, but I think that should be fine. ๐
Loved these! I didnโt have time to make tortillas so i used store-bought. Also, i didnโt have any tomato sauce so i just left it out and it still came out great! Thanks!!
Happy it turned out great, Meg. ๐
Delicious and easy to make!! My boyfriend and I are not vegan but love to try different vegan dishes and these are great! Thank you! We will definitely make again!
That’s amazing! I am so glad you both enjoyed it. Thanks for your fantastic feedback Kerra! ๐
These are amazing! They are absolutely getting added to the rotation. I also took the suggestion of the author and used the recipe for the tortillas…they were perfect! They didnโt fall apart, and they will be my go to do any future tortillas. Now I just canโt wait to make more of the recipes!!
Also, I paired these with rice and beans.
That’s awesome, Ananda! I am so glad you loved the taquitos and the tortillas as well. ๐
These were a hit for dinner tonight!! I’ll definitely make them again!
Happy they turned out delicious, Lynsey. ๐
I just made this recipe for lunch. The filling was very tasty. I need to practice my rolling technique, though. I might have used a bit too much filling and it helps if the tortillas are not right out of the fridge. Thank you for the great recipe.
You are very welcome, Suzy! I am so glad you liked them. ๐
Thank you for the recipie. Taquitos are something I used to love as a child, when I saw this recipie I couldn’t help but give it a try. I am not going to lie, i had low expectations (I’m definitely not the best cook) BUT the flavour was absolutely delicious! I didn’t have milk of any kind So i used a tbsp of water and a tbsp of lime juice and i think it still turned out great. I also opted to make lettuce wraps for half of them. What a great tasty recipie. Thank you!
I am so glad they turned out delicious! Thanks for your awesome feedback, Nell. ๐
This was delicious!!! I didn’t have corn tortillas so I used flour. Will make with corn next time and there will be a next time!! I made the vegan cheese and loved that too! Thanks for a tasty dinner!!
My pleasure, Leslie! I am so glad you loved the taquitos. You can also try my homemade gluten-free tortillas if you like. ๐
Can I air fry these without using the oil ?
Yes, that should be fine! ๐
I love making these, but every time I use corn tortillas, they begin to crack as soon as I place them stuffed on the baking sheet. Do you have a helpful suggestion for this? I tried microwaving them, olive oil glaze, damp towel, etc., but they co to us to crack! Help!! Thank you!
Hi! Maybe heat them in a pan on the stove. This might fix the issue.
Have you tried my gluten-free tortilla recipe? It’s seriously so much better than corn tortillas or any store-bought gluten-free tortillas. They NEVER crack! The recipe is linked a few times in this blog post but here is the link again: https://elavegan.com/gluten-free-tortillas-recipe/
Put them in a plastic or paper bag to hold steam and microwave for about a minute.
Nice recipe and really easy to make! The Gluten free tortillas that I bought to use for this were actually disgusting so I ending up throwing them away and I just ate the filling myself, which was lovely on its own, and served with regular tortillas for the rest of the family! I made a ranch dip on the side! Yummy!!
I am glad you liked the recipe, Gabrielle! I hope you will try out my homemade gluten-free tortillas next time, they are incredible! ๐
This recipe came out even better than I hoped it would. Its easy to make and I’m sure non vegans would still love it. I am definitely putting this dish in m weekly lineup.
Sounds amazing, Dapne! So glad you loved the taquitos. ๐
Excellent recipe – had to change a couple ingredient to meet our needs but it was a huge success – Thank You!
I am glad it was a huge success, Martha! ๐
I love these! Is there a recipe for BBQ ones?
Hey! I am glad you love them. You could use store-bought vegan BBQ sauce instead of hot sauce. ๐
hey Ela! making this right now. quick question what is the purpose of sugar in this recipe? i would rather avoid sugar as i’m on a weight loss journey.
Just for the taste. You can leave it out. ๐
Just made these and the Hubby and I loved them! We used Delish hot sauce which is pretty hot so actually omitted the chili powder and it worked out just fine. I think I’ll add a bit of black beans next time! Great recipe!
Sounds so delicious! I am glad you both loved them. ๐
I have made this recipe a number of times now and my family and I really enjoy it. I always serve mine with a homemade vegan ranch dressing because for me, buffalo and ranch are a dream match! I also serve it with avocado & cilantro when I have it on hand. The favours in the recipe are wonderful! Thanks for the great recipe!!!
Homemade vegan ranch dressing sounds wonderful, Shanda! Thanks for your great feedback. ๐
I made these taquitos a week ago and my fiancรฉ liked them so much he requested them for Valentine’s Day dinner – a testament to their deliciousness! Thanks so much for this recipe!
Aww, that’s so amazing! Thanks so much for your great feedback, Taylor. ๐
It does look like it’s easy to make them, and you are right, I already have ingredients ๐ Can’t wait to surprise my family tomorrow! Oh, and your Erna is adorable! I loved taking care after little chicks as a child. Thanks for the recipe!
You are very welcome, Iryna! I hope you will like the recipe.
Much love, Ela and Erna ๐
They turned out really good!!
I am glad they turned out great, Iryna! Thanks for your review! ๐
I’m making these TOMORROW! And I wouldn’t dream of hurting sweet Erna when I can eat these lovely taquitos instead! I have been a vegan for a month along with my husband and we are loving your delicious recipes! Give Erna a hug from me, if she’s into hugs lol.
Aww, I am glad you loved the recipe, Monica! Thanks for your great feedback! I will give Erna a hug from you. ๐
This is delicious! My Omni husband even like them.
If your store bought tortillas are cracking, Pile them up, wrap the stack in a damp paper towel, put them on a microwave save plate and microwave them for 45-seconds to a minute. They will be super hot when they come out, put they wonโt crack while youโre rolling them up. I did have to use a fork to fill them so that I wouldnโt burn myself.
Thanks for your helpful comment, Angel! I am so glad you both loved the recipe! ๐
I havenโt made these yet but would love to. Do you think if they were made up until you bake them if you could freeze them to bake later they would be fine?
It should be fine, Kelly, but I never tried it. Please report back if you give it a try. ๐
Made these for the first time yesterday and they turned out great! Thanks for sharing the recipe Iโll definitely be making them again
Yay! I am so happy they turned out amazing! Thanks for your great feedback, April. ๐
These look great! I can’t eat hot sauce as I have a chilli allergy – what could I use instead? (I’m fine with powder,, just not sauce or fresh)
You can simply leave it out or use more regular tomato sauce. ๐
I come back to this recipe time and time again. This paired, with your vegan cheese sauce recipe, is absolutely INCREDIBLE. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece!
Awww, thanks so much for the compliment, Madelyn! I am so glad you love it. ๐
This was easy and delicious. My family really enjoyed it! I had to substitute in some siracha due to being short on hot sauce. It was super spicy but delicious. Thanks for such a crative use of garbanzos!
You are welcome, Sharon! I am glad you liked the recipe. ๐
This is an amazing recipe!!!๐
I am so glad you like the recipe, Ayla! ๐
What kind of hot sauce are you using?
Any brand is fine! One is actually linked within the recipe. Just click on the ingredient “hot sauce” and you will see it. ๐
Sooooo delicious! Will definitely be making these again!
So glad you liked the recipe, Alexandra. ๐
Hi! Thinking about making these for a potluck at workโ do you think they would get soggy being in the fridge overnight? We donโt have an oven at the office to warm things up in ๐
Hi Sarah! I am afraid they would get soggy or at least they wouldn’t be crispy anymore the next day.
I made these the other night and I’m making them again for lunch meal prep this week! They are incredible! I added chopped pickled jalapeรฑos and didn’t add in the chilli powder or cumin as I’m not a huge fan of those flavours. Will make these again and again!
Yay, sounds amazing! Thanks so much for your feedback. ๐
Listen, this was just what I needed, I always have an open can of chickpeas around, because aguafaba, and my boyfriend never finishes his tortillas he buys. Perfect leftover recipe for me haha ๐
Thank you!
Yay, sounds amazing! Thanks for your feedback, Charlotte! ๐
A real winner! I made these for dinner with my vegan daughter and son-in-law are in mind. Everyone loved these, even hubby who’s a dye hard meat eater. A definite keeper. Thank you so much.
I’m trying them today using black beans.
My pleasure! I am so glad you liked the taquitos, Annie. ๐
This recipe is a family favorite! We use the air fryer and it heats up quickly and crispy. What tortillas do you typically use? I use mission but the calorie count is 140 just for 1 tortilla. The recipe says 116 per taquitos so I’d love a lower calorie alternative
Hi Renee, happy you like the recipe! I use my homemade gluten-free tortillas, which I linked in the blog post: https://elavegan.com/gluten-free-tortillas-recipe
I used white corn tortillas and a lot of mine cracked. Did I do something wrong or should I use just use different tortillas next time?
Try using flour tortillas next time. I always use my homemade gluten-free tortillas. You can give them a try if you want. Here is my easy recipe: https://elavegan.com/gluten-free-tortillas-recipe/ ๐
Wrap the tortillas in a light cloth and microwave them for about 15 seconds . They become soft and donโt crack .
Delicious recipe, thanks!
My wife canโt eat any bell peppers.
Any suggestions on a good substitute for the future?
You could use zucchini or your favorite veggies instead. ๐
So my corn tortillas when I rolled them up split on both sides? I didnโt put too much in them. Do y think because I used white corn tortillas that were gluten free?
Hi Tracy! I never made the recipe with corn tortillas. I always make my own homemade tortillas: https://elavegan.com/gluten-free-tortillas-recipe/
Maybe you can try it again with the homemade ones or with store-bought flour tortillas. ๐
I just made these and they are delicious! However I am bummed out that many tortillas peeled of and cracked! I waited for the filing to cool down to avoid this. I also heated up the tortillas before rolling them. They were fine until they baked and cracked in the oven. Any suggestions on how to avoid this? I intend to make this dish regularly!
Thanks!
Hi Vicky! ๐ Did you make my homemade tortillas? Mine do not crack in the oven. Maybe your temperature was too high?
Thanks for your feedback. ๐
Excellent! These were a hit for my hubby and myself being plant based eaters, and my older omnivore teens. I love meals we all enjoy without changing recipes to suit wants!! Adding this one to the โmake againโ list!
Amazing! Thanks a lot for your great feedback, Jenn! ๐
Oh so yummy! Thank you for sharing!
You are very welcome, Tracy! ๐
Hi, this looks amazing.
Can’t wait to make it.
By plant based milk, can I use like almond milk or hazelnut milk or does it have to be like Soy milk.
Sure, almond milk or hazelnut milk is totally fine. ๐
I made these today and they came out kind of sour/vinegar-ey tasting. I used Frank’s buffalo sauce for my hot sauce, which has vinegar in it already. And I put the tablespoon of balsalmic vinegar in as well, like the recipe calls for. Do you think it was my hot sauce choice that caused this problem? What hot sauce do you use?
Thank you! And I love your page ๐
Hi Kristine, I use a local brand which doesn’t have a strong sour/vinegary taste, so maybe next time leave out the balsamic vinegar.
I am glad you like my recipes. ๐
Ela, it is so good flexible recipe! We love it, we don’t need bread at all. We simply use it instead of bread. Thank you!
That’s awesome! Great idea. ๐ Thanks for your feedback!
You know all those packs you get from eating Taco Bell would be great in this recipe
Am I crazy? I can’t find canned chickpeas anywhere, they all say garbanzo beans? Even online. Are they the same?
Of course! It’s the same. ๐
What kind of tortilla did you use in this recipe?
Can your chick pea flour recipe work in this one?
Yes, I used my gluten-free tortilla recipe (with chickpea flour and tapioca flour). It’s actually linked in the recipe. ๐
delicious! i did have some trouble mashing the chickpeas so i just left them in their original form. weโre they supposed to be fully mashed?
No, that’s fine! I sometimes leave them whole as well. ๐
Ahhhhmaaaaazing!!!!! So easy to prepare, youโre awesome!
Made my husbands tummy very happy!
Wonderful! Thanks a lot for your feedback. ๐
I made these the other day and they are absolutely delicious!!! Thank you for the recipie! โค๏ธ
That’s awesome! Thank you, Isabelle. ๐
What color bell pepper do you recommend?
Yellow, orange or red! ๐
How would I cook the chick peas for this? Iโve honestly havenโt ever cooked chick peas
You can use canned chickpeas as mentioned in the recipe.
Can you sub the bell pepper for something else or omit it?
It adds a nice flavor but you can add something else, for example, tomatoes or zucchini or omit it.
These are amazing! I doubled the recipe and added half chickpeas half black beans. Everyone loved them! Including my non-vegan parents, my son who isn’t so fond of chickpeas, and my 2 year old in which we battle her to eat anything at supper time! We even had it for leftovers the next day and none of my 4 children complained! Not even the one that complains about leftovers. A win all around! Thank you!
That’s awesome! So happy everyone enjoyed the taquitos. ๐
Thanks for your feedback!
Made these tonight — WOW! So so delicious. I had some trouble with my tortillas cracking because I didn’t warm them sufficiently beforehand. What I learned from having leftover filling is that it makes a great dip for tortilla chips! My boyfriend loved this recipe too, despite not being a huge chickpea fan. Can’t wait to make this again.
That’s really wonderful! Thanks for your feedback, Maddie! ๐
Hi, Ela! I made these for dinner last night. I usually can’t follow a recipe to save my life, but I did this time, and you did not disappoint – these were SO yummy!! I have 2 left over and I can’t wait for lunch time to get here so I could finish them off. (I strongly considered eating them for breakfast!) I’ll definitely be making these again and again. Thank you for sharing!
Wonderful! So glad you liked the taquitos. ๐
I was pleasantly surprised with how good these were. I am not vegan so I added some shredded cheese on the inside and they were amazing! I don’t generally like chickpeas but had some leftover from a different recipe and needed a reason to use them. This was perfect. I’m actually looking forward to buying more chickpeas to make more of these.
Thanks for your comment, Sierra! ๐
Hi, quick question what kind of tortillas did you use? I used corn El Pueblo and when I tried rolling the taquitos, the tortilla kept on breaking. I finally added less mixture and was able to roll them somewhat properly. Once we took them out of the oven, they all looked dry and all the tortillas were open. They definitely didn’t look as nice as yours. Any suggestions? We did add the oil to make them crispy.
Hi, I use homemade tortillas which I also linked in the recipe! ๐
https://elavegan.com/gluten-free-tortillas-recipe/
Thank you SO much! Will be trying this tortilla recipe. ๐
You are very welcome! I hope you will like it. ๐
Can these be made ahead or in bulk and put into the freezer?
Yes, that’s possible!
My question was about freezing also, which would you recommend…Before baking? Or after baked and cooled?
I would recommend it before baking. ๐
Okay, listen. The Buffalo Taquitos may be the best thing I’ve eaten in the past couple weeks of veganism. I mean Really—- totally amazing.
This is coming from a big dude living in Buffalo. I can’t wait to make them again. I’ll make them for my carnivorous pals, too.
MORE RECIPES LIKE THIS!!! ????????????
I didn’t see nutritional info on the recipe. Did I miss that?
Thank you so much, David! I am glad you liked the recipe. Hope your friends will like it too!
As regards the nutritional info, I will include it shortly! ๐
Made these for dinner, I used corn tortillas. Make sure to warm the tortillas or they will rip once you roll them up. Dipped them in a vegan queso dip found at Aldi.
Amazing! Thanks, Tori! ๐
This was amazing! I pretty much followed the recipe verbatim, and I actually doubled it. It sounded so good I wanted to be sure there would be enough to take for lunch tomorrow if I enjoyed it ๐ We did not have taquitos, but had it over rice with sliced avocado. It was really delicious and definitely worth doubling. Thank you!
Awesome! Thanks a lot for your great feedback, Sheri! ๐
I’m new at this vegan lifestyle, been at it for about a month. I’m also trying to incorporate these dishes into my family’s meals. I made these the other day and the kids loved them. They even thought that the mashed chickpeas were meat. That helped start the healthy eating conversation. Thanks for the great recipe and keep them coming! ????
That’s awesome, Jason! So happy you and your kids loved this recipe. ๐
Ela, had these for dinner tonight! Amazing! Such a delicious and easy recipe. Thank you! I’m still in awe of how yummy and crunchy they were! Definitely will be remaking over and over again.
Very happy to hear that you liked my recipe, Diana! ๐
I made these tonight and they were so good! I have saved so many of your recipes to try. Can’t wait! Thank you!
Amazing, Jodi! I am glad you liked these taquitos. ๐
Hi! could you make video how you make vegan cheese? we did smth wrong ๐
I will probably make a video in a few days. What went wrong with the cheese sauce?
It was not thick and white:)
Made this for lunch. It’s so good!!! Thank you! ๐
So happy you liked this recipe, Cybille! ๐
Hi! I just want to start by saying I love that you have a little rescue chicken. I canโt wait to have a few hens of my own to love! I tried to make this recipe tonight and for some reason it just did not come out tasting like I hoped it would. Iโve only been a vegetarian for a few months now so I probably did something wrong. I cooked the canned chickpeas which may have caused the odd taste? I also realized I used a tomato sauce that was flavored with basil and oregano. Maybe this was my mistake?? Iโd love your feedback so I can try it again and hope it comes out better. Thank you!
Chelsea
Hi Chelsea, thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you if it was the basil and oregano in the tomato sauce as I never tried it out. Also, it’s difficult to give you feedback since tastes differ a lot. I have received great feedback on Instagram and here so far, so my answer is probably not very helpful.
Best wishes, Ela
You donโt need to cook the chickpeas if they come from canned (already cooked). I think that was the โmistakeโ. Try again and just cooked the onion, etc.
We cook canned chick peas all the time, oregano has a strong flavor as well as thyme, if your tomato sauce was seasoned I imagine thatโs whats went wrong ! Youโre taste also changes slowly the longer you eat a diet lower in fats and sugars (which most balanced plant based diets are in comparison to non plant based diets) so it could be that too! Good luck
Hi Ela,
Do flour tortillas or corn tortillas work better for taquitos?
Both should work fine. I prefer my homemade tortillas. ๐
Your tortillas in the above pictures looks amazing…so thin and yummy! The Tortilla recipe attached to this recipe, the tortillas look much thicker. I’m curious what recipe you used. Thank you!
It’s always the same recipe but sometimes I use more water to make them thinner and sometimes less water to make them thicker. ๐
Sweet and healthy
Thank you! ๐
This was sooo delicious!! The combos of spices with the chickpeas made for a mouthwatering easy to make meal. Thank you so much Ela for the inspiration!!!
Wonderful! I am glad you liked the recipe, Mike! ๐
Do you know the calories per taquito
Unfortunately, I don’t. It also depends on which kind of tortilla you use (corn or wheat-based or gluten-free etc). But you could check out cronometer.com and calculate it yourself with the type of tortilla you are using.
My family loves these! I made them with whole wheat flour tortillas and they were delicious.
Oh, sorry. I was too excited and went straight to the recipe. :))
Thanks for the quick response though! ๐
You are very welcome! ๐
HI, Ela!
This is amazing! Was just wondering, I don’t really eat spicy food. Is it possible to not add the spice mix?
Thanks!
Hi Cybille, if you don’t like spicy food then definitely leave out the chili powder and use less hot sauce. I actually mentioned it in the text of the blog post. โค๏ธ
I just made this recipe and it’s so good. I added sweet corn and it worked! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
You are welcome! I am glad you liked the recipe, Karen. ๐
Sweeeeeeeeeet <3 thnx from Argentina
You are most welcome! ๐
Are you using buffalo sauce or just regular hot sauce?
I used regular hot sauce. ๐
can i replace legume for other thing? My baby is allergy to chickpeas ????
You could use black beans or kidney beans instead of chickpeas if your baby can eat that. ๐
Iโm going to make them with mushroom walnut meat. Iโm so excited that I found this recipe.
Enjoy it, Amy! ๐
Ohhh!!! That sounds amazing!
Thanks for the idea! ๐๐ผ
You could use fork-shredded mushrooms or jackfruit
