Jackfruit is unique for its fibrous, meat like texture, making it a useful ingredient in vegetarian cooking. In this recipe we mimic the texture of pulled pork by braising the jackfruit with chipotles in adobo, tomato paste, and garlic powder until tender and shreddable. We serve the tacos with avocado and queso fresco, but you can substitute pickled onions for the cheese if you’d like to make these tacos vegan. 

Note: If you would like, add 1-2 tsps homemade Taco Seasoning to add even more flavor to this delicious meal.
