Jackfruit Tacos

A co-worker of Jason’s brought Jackfruit Tacos to a get together we had a few months back and they were delicious. She said she just made them the way she would make meat tacos, so that’s what I did when I made them. I bought a can of Jackfruit from Trader Joe’s and proceeded to make them the way I would make regular tacos and they turned out amazing. The one thing I will say is adding less salt then you would to chicken or beef tacos.

Make sure you buy Green Jackfruit in the brine. A delicious meatless taco option. They are ready in less than 10 minutes!
