Vegan Birria Tacos (quesabirria)

These had been trending on TikTok while I was in the thick of baby phase and trying to navigate being the default parent while Eddie was back at work, but now I finally have made this vegan!

Birria tacos are traditionally made with goat or beef and are a celebratory dish in Mexican culture, originating from Jalisco! These vegan quesabirria tacos are a labour of love, but one batch makes a LOT of tacos so it makes sense that it can feed a crowd!

SOY CURLS: from Coven (Hamilton or Kitchener)
Most ingredients are from America Latina Grocery in Kitchener and my local Asian Market (Waterloo Central Supermarket and T&T)
(Also yes, I moved! I'll explain in another video)

♡ Where do you live? - Hamilton, Ontario, Canada :)
♡ Why do you refer to your baby as they/them? Because we don't share Bean's face, sex or name online.
♡ Why are you always wearing gloves? - I have eczema, and atopic dermatitis on my hands, so I wear gloves because of food safety and so they get less irritated.
♡ Is YouTube your full time job? - Yes! Although I do freelance on the side to pay them bills.

😍 omg Lisa! You have outdone yourself! I used to love birria when I wasn’t vegan and I haven’t had it in so many years! I can’t wait to try this recipe!!!! 🇲🇽🌮

From someone who’s of Mexican and Korean descent, you did good! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 You can use the extra sauce for enchiladas.

[maryannez]

Oh my gosh Eddy how do you Lisa I love your videos, I love your recipes, your food hauls and pretty much any video you make. That looked absolutely out of this world, my mouth was watering. Hello from Australia.

I watched this unfold on Instagram but I am a visual learner and this helps tremendously. Also your family is adorable 😂 Eddie camera faces and Bean noises Thanks for the recipes.

Lovely and tasty homage! I’m Mexican and grew up using these chilies for base sauces of many dishes.

This sauce in particular is very versatile. I use mine for enchiladas and pozole. You can also pour it over fried or baked potatoes 😋

[callen]

Great recipes like this are one reason I’m enjoying more vegan meals. Thank-you!

[micamckenzie]

😅😅😅😅😅 great video Lisa. Eddie's smoulder. 😅😅 You guys are too cute ❤

Working my way back to vegetarian & plant based so this looks so yummy! Very similar to how I make chili. For extra bit of smokiness toast the dried chilis in a pan before cooking them in the water. I think I’ll try this out with jackfruit cuz I don’t have soy curls at the moment! Thanks for sharing :)

[Corgimom]

Looks amazing! I love the suggestion of rock sugar & the dehydration shroomies! Solid suggestions!

I find my favorite cheese alternative for Birria is Mykonos liquid mozzarella! It’s absolute perfection!

[veganpeace]

Looks incredible! Eddie is hilarious as always!!

[Cryptid_Crow]

Oh HELL YES!!!! Absolutely going to try to make these :)

[suzubee]

I never really thought of it but youre right animal bones tasting sweet.
I'm mexican and not really vegan but this sounds so good

[jhollomon]

Can I ask what pan you’re using to do the taco?

[linzertube]

Is ALL Mexican food such a labour of love? Because, every time I make Mexican food, I am hours in the kitchen. But, obviously, in your house it’s worth it, ‘cause you get smoulders at the end.😂.

No matter what I’m making, my preferred utensil will always be the mighty chopstick loool what cant it do?
