Fooled Pork Tacos

Impress your meat-eating friends with some awesome Fooled Pork Tacos. These BBQ induced tacos are centered on jack fruit! Yes, jack fruit. You can find it at an Asian grocery store as a whole fruit, or in the can. I dare you to try it because it will be your new favorite meal.

BBQ Sauce:
1.5C BBQ Sauce (Vegan)
2T Tomato Paste
1T Hot Sauce

Whisk all ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Filling:
2 (20oz) Cans of Jack Fruit (in BRINE)
2 Red Bell Peppers, Diced
1 Yellow Onion, Diced

Rinse the jack fruit thoroughly under water. Next, tear apart the jack fruit with your hands and place it in a medium-sized bowl. Try to shred the jack fruit as small as you can.

Heat a large non-stick pot on medium heat. Saute the chopped onion and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown. Then, add in the chopped bell peppers and the shredded jack fruit. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the moisture has evaporated. Add in the BBQ sauce and stir occasionally. Let it cook for 10 minutes.

Serve with corn tortillas, guacamole, vegan sour cream, cilantro and/or hot sauce.

Guacamole:
2 Avocados
2-3 Garlic Cloves, Minced
Lime Juice, Half
1/2C Cilantro, Chopped
1t Cumin
Pinch of Salt and Pepper

Mash up the avocados in a small bowl. Use a fork to smash the avocado chunks up better. Once this is to your liking, add in all of the other ingredients. Chop up the cilantro as small as you can. Mince the garlic and use juice half of a lime. Stir everything together and serve.
