Cinco De Mayo Wrap-up: Vegetarian Recipes
Cinco de Mayo is a day of national pride for Mexicans around the world, commemorating Mexico’s victory over French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. We join in the celebration with our favorite Mexican food and drink.
- Rick Bayless's Braised Greens Tacos: Earthy and rich because of the greens, sweet from the caramelized onions, smoky from the chipotle.
- Black Bean Tostadas with Corn Relish: The interplay between hot and cool, the balance of savory warm filling, and the spicy bite of a good salsa—all good things.
- Poblano Tacos: These tacos filled with roasted poblanos contain no meat, but still pack lot of flavor.

Maybe using seitan chorizo would make the last dish vegetarian, but all the chorizo I've ever had is definitely animal based. And by animal based, I mean usually gristle and fat and delicious.

Seriously? A vegetarian recipe with chorizo sausage? That didn't raise any red flags for you guys?

My brother calls chorizo "tortured weasel." Apparently the friend who introduced him to it spoke with an accent, and that's what it sounded like.
