Small head of cauliflower or a package of cauliflower rice
6 oz of cremini mushrooms

Directions
Plantain Tortilla
Preheat oven to 350˚F.
Cut plantain with skin on. Note, the skin falls off after removing from the water.
Boil until soft.
Process boiled, skinless plantain in a food processor until it resembles dough.
Divide dough into small portions. Note, plantains can be sticky. Wet your hands to make it easier to work with.
Place one portion between two pieces of parchment paper and roll until thin.
Remove one layer of parchment paper, place a small cereal bowl on top, and carefully cut the plantain tortilla with a pizza cutter, as to not cut the parchment.
Cut down the parchment edges, leaving at least an inch overlap.
Place the plantain tortilla over two slats of your oven rack, with the parchment side to the oven rack to prevent sticking.
Bake until crispy.
Guacamole
Mash avocado.
Mix in salt, micro-planed garlic, and cilantro.
Taco Filling
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Lightly pulse the cauliflower and mushrooms in a food processor until you have a rice like consistency. Note, skip this step if using packaged cauliflower rice.
Mix cauliflower, mushroom, Liquid Aminos & spices in a large bowl.
Spread mixture onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
Stir lightly and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes.
Fill the plantain tortilla with the filling.
Add guacamole, tomato and lettuce, to personal taste.
