Kale and Mushroom Tacos

Why do I love tacos? Because I’m lazy. Tacos are the perfect lazy person food. All you need is a couple of ingredients, some taco shells, and you’re good to go!These tacos are made with four ingredients only: kale, mushrooms, white beans, and feta cheese (optional). Mushrooms imitate a meaty texture, white beans provide protein, and kale packs a punch of vitamins K, C, and A, along with magnesium and iron.

I buy all of these ingredients at Trader Joe’s, especially the corn and wheat tortillas. I don’t like rubbery corn tortillas, so these are the perfect texture because of the added wheat flour.
