Description
“Now, here’s a cleanse we can get behind.”—People
“Diets don't get any better than this.”—Eater
“There's a new cleanse in town. *Praise hands*.”—Cosmopolitan
Tired of the same old cleanse? Instead of feeling rejuvenated are you feeling depleted, anxious, and cranky? (Not to mention . . . hungry?) A group of vegan taco scientists in Austin, Texas, know just how you feel, and now reveal their one-of-a-kind cleansing journey that anybody can follow and stick to—the Taco Cleanse. While the typical cleanse works by depriving you of your favorite foods, the plant-based Taco Cleanse rewards your body with what it naturally craves: tortillas, refried beans, guacamole!
Begin with a breakfast taco, the most important taco of the day. Even if you do nothing else, your mood will brighten in just 24 hours. Keep eating tacos and within a week your outlook will be noticeably improved. After 30 days, cleansers report lasting benefits—and you will, too!
The Taco Cleanse shows you:
- How to make everything from the tortilla—flour, corn, and waffle (!)—to the thirst-quenching “Supplements” (margaritas and other beverages) that best complement your tacos
- What to put in the tortilla— beer-battered portobellos, mac and cheese, even tater tots
- How to remake popular staples like picadillo, tacos al pastor, carne guisada, and fish tacos using plants instead of, well, animals.

I have not tried any of the recipes here, but my family is massively into the Taco Cleanse. We are not vegan, so we will probably do some substituting for the tofu. However, there are so many wonderful recipes in this book that it can appeal to the omnivore as well as the vegan. The concept is very funny and it is worth reading the introductory comments. But, there are recipes for making your own tortillas from a variety of ingredients, making your own salsas, making rice side dishes, etc. I want a copy of this in my kitchen as TexMex is definitely a cuisine that is staying in my household. Three meals a day? Maybe not.....lol

This entire thing cracked me up. Initially requested it because I'm obsessed with tacos/burritos/americanized-mexican food in general. Once I started reading it, I quickly realized it was simply an epic taco cookbook that happened to be vegan. Since so many elements of tacos are vegan normally, you can use a lot of the recipes and then add meat if you desire. Some of the ingredients were ridiculously confusing or bizarre, but I a majority of the recipes looked doable with some understanding of kitchen skills (which means I am still a bit screwed, lmfao). Completely a must have for any vegan or taco lover.
