'taco' meat & meatless tacos!

when my daughter went 'total' vegetarian [she stop eating mammals first], one thing she missed was tacos. to try to minimize making 3 separate meals to satisfy everyone in the family, i made taco meat & meatless taco filling at the same time [different pans of course]. it was fairly easy as i just had to reverse the order of cooking. for example i used to brown the meat first then add the veggies and spices, now i put in the veggies and spices first, divide some for the meatless tacos, and then add the meat to the pan. using 'grillers' instead of the 'crumbles' makes for a better taste but more importantly, better texture for the meatless tacos. my daughter loved them and it was great to have the whole family sit down for the same meal...now if i could only get my son to eat pasta and more veggies, it would be perfect!
